In the books of Genesis and Exodus there are, no doubt, more prophecies than the four that I mention here. These four are highlighted because I wrote on them as part of an assignment for an Old Testament course I am currently taking. So, I’m not trying to suggest these are the only four prophecies [...]
To some Christians a study of the Old Testament seems largely irrelevant. They mistakenly believe that Jesus has in some way declared the Old Testament null and void.

I haven’t taken math since last year, but today I got some refreshing in it as I was “helping” a friend with his math homework.
