I viewed this video message today; thank you for the powerful reminder that the Advent season is a time of repentance. It’s hard to remember that because of all the excitement building up around me as people prepare for gatherings with family, parties, gifts, etc. I really enjoy having Pastor Harrison’s videos available on the website and look forward to seeing each new message.
Thank you for this message. God’s Grace is is the reason we have been saved through his son, Jesus. I had not heard that it may only last a short time 1 or 2 generations! Where does it say this in the Bible?
Thank you President Harrison for your words of exhortation and warning to cherish our gifts through Jesus Christ and be especially mindful of them during Advent
