Jesus clearly and distinctly prophesied, using the example of Jonah, that He would spend three days and three nights in the tomb before His resurrection would occur.

It is not wise to be ignorant or unformed about the RELIGIOUS SYSTEM and their core false doctrine that has over ONE BILLION people ENSLAVED.
When we have no REDEMPTIVE VISION OF GOD, drawn from God’s Word— we have no godly standard for guidance; THUS, moral and spiritual anarchy unfolds!
Christian, you are a BELIEVER PRIEST. You have within you the MASTER TEACHER, the Holy Spirit. Therefore, wholly embrace the need and call to be a WORKMAN
