God really understands families. Families were created by God. Over
the process of time families went all over the Earth and occupied it. As a
result of the fall family culture and life became fallen. Instead of
worshipping the Living God families began to worship idol gods and develop anti
Faith and anti God cultures. In Jesus Christ, as True Believers, families can
be restored.
