Acts 20:31
King James Version
8 Jun 2026
“Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.”
μνημονεύω
To remember, to keep in mind. Mnemoneuo. Remember Lot's wife. Not every act of looking back is neutral. Some backward glances become the defining moment of a life.
