Our desire is to achieve these fruits through will power. But we do not even realize that the pride that lives within our heart is what is blocking the fruit of the spirit from living within us.In Breaking Pride you will learn to identify different areas of pride in your life. Filled with encouragement, Breaking Pride will take you through a practical reading of what pride may look like in your life…Let’s stop building walls of pride and start building the foundation of grace within our lives…

In the other location, there is a High Priest making intercession for you that you will finish your journey and wake up in the paradise of God. Perry Stone is uniquely qualified to deliver answers to important questions that people have about heaven and hell, including: Where is hell located? Are there “gateways” into hell within the geography of our Earth? Where is paradiseâ��the temporary home for people who will one day live eternally in heaven? What are the time-light mysteries that help explain the afterlife? Who will be in heavenâ��will our pets be there? How will the dead be remembered on earth?
