Weekly Focus Article


WHATSOEVER YOU SHALL BIND ON EARTH

Matthew 16:19 and Matthew 18:18 both say "whatsoever you shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven. So do these two verses mean the same thing? No, they don't mean the same thing at all. Is the authority that Matthew 16:19 confers to someone the same as the authority conferred by Matthew 18:18? No, it is not the same authority at all. This week's 26-page Focus Article entitled "Whatsoever You Shall Bind On Earth" thoroughly examines these two verses. The answers may surprise you. - View Article

Without such a statement of name and email address below your request statement we will assume any requests received to have been generated by malicious computer software.
