How to Interpret the Bible: The Divine Throne-Chariot (or UFO's in the Bible)
A series of articles on How to Interpret the Bible, by Lauretta Lueck, author of The Many Waters.

Spiritual Healing: In The School of Christ
Spiritual healing of the sick in Christ has many Christians
in a kind of spiritual vise. On the one hand they read about
