1. I'm sure all of us have had dreams that are extremely strange. I have found that dreams basically fall into three categories. Some dreams can be very delightful. The next time you ladies look at your sewing machine you might remember that it was the result of a dream.

6. Well Jude verifies the fact that dreams can be dangerous. He describes apostates in v.8 as ''dreamers.'' That is, apostates are dreamers who con ...
