Description

What do you value more, truth or faith?

I spent 17 years of my life do using mental gymnastics to justify what I believed. I was living a mental simulation where god was real. this greatly skewed my perspective on reality.

2 Peter 1:20" "no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation."
