Law of Lordship
HEAVEN'S FIXED LAWS
Ron Dunn
1 Peter 3:14-16
But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled; But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good behavior in Christ.

I hold in my hand operating instructions provided by the manufacturer of your life. I can assure you that when you have tried to operate your life without following the manufacturer's instructions, you have always ended up in a dead end. Time and time again it has been proven to me that the only time my life has ever derailed is when I get away from the operating instructions f ...
