2 Corinthians 11:1-3
If you have your Bibles, please turn to 2nd Corinthians chapter 11, 2nd Corinthians chapter 11. I want to tell you a little story about a man named Bob.

I'm doing all the right things, all the things they tell me to do at church, but this doesn't seem to be working for me. I mean, I read in ...
