    Listening to Iain these passed few weeks, I haven't been as interested in developing a relationship with God since JBP uploaded his biblical series. John Uhler's recent videos are affecting me deeply aswell.

    11:31 All that is to know is finite. That is existential Reality. Every human being has more potential than required to know existential reality. That is the way we can move ahead and get everyone to know that., 🙏🙏🙏
