    Everyone talks about true love. But the Apostle John tells us how we are supposed to love.

    In just two days, we celebrate a holiday centered around the concept of love. We’ve seen traces of it for weeks. Hearts, flowers, candy… My wife told me exactly what she wanted this year… she told me she wanted flowers…but not roses. Anyone can get roses, she said. She wanted tulips. And so I ...read more

    Are you redeemed? Are you living a redeemed life? To many of us are redeemed, however we are still bound to a old self. God has set us free. Let’s learn how to live truly redeemed lives!

    Jesus loves the song of the redeemed. The bible teaches us that the angels have a party when one soul is saved.

    The death of Jesus was not by accident or by surprise but rather was a part of the plan of the Father to redeem the world

However, the first scene Satan tells Jesus that no man can bear the world’s sin. This was the purpose of Jesus coming to this ...read more

    Two weeks ago, we looked at the solutions for dealing with our own sin. This morning, we will look at the opposite of our sin against God, which is our obedience to God.
