He made the mountains, He made the seas. He made the flowers that bloom with the trees. He made the music the saints sing with joy. He made the little ones, including their toys. He made the moon that brightens the night. He made the sunshine that warms the daylight. He made the raindrops that…
Tuesday, July 31, 2001 Baptism is a topic that is not talked about much these days but there is quite a difference in what various denominations believe about it.
