Billy, being a moral person has nothing to do with having your sins forgiven, in my opinion. Jesus is not the only source of forgiveness. Have you forgiven...
No, God doesn’t give me everything I want just because I ask, but He always gives me what is truly good. In Luke 11:9-13, Jesus tells me to ask, seek, and...
