Believe- The Second Step of Salvation
The second part of our three steps to salvation is believe. We must believe before we can truly repent and can only believe if we have first acknowledged.

Seek First the Kingdom of God
Dirt and cobblestone mark the road leading to the King’s castle. Horses, wagons and chariots line the streets of the weathered wood and brick building fronts.
