    Compassion: Without it you are Guilty of Hate Kelly Durant I Jn 3:14-18 Compassion is sympathy for the suffering and a desire to help! Do something! They say that giving a beggar a piece of bread is a civil duty, but to give him a bread with butter on it, now that is compassion! Compassion is a ...read more

    Our command therefore for living rightly is simple: believe in Jesus Christ and love one another as He has commanded. It’s in the fruit of our lives where we see whether or not this is being lived out.

    Inspect Your Spiritual DNA 1) You’re more like Cain than you’d like to admit 2) You’re more like Christ than you realize

    DNA testing is becoming more and more common. The police regularly use it of course to track down criminals but law-abiding citizens are also having their DNA tested. They want to see if they are descended from anyone famous. There’s a good chance of that if you are from mainland Asia ...read more

    Putting Our Love Into Action Series

     | 13,899 views

    Our efforts for the Lord will be futile without love. We know the Bible commands that we love one another, and yet we fail to fully heed the command. Our world needs to experience love in action, not just in word.

    Putting our Love into Action 1 John 3: 11-17 Our text this evening continues to deal with the great theme of love that John has already dealt with extensively. I suppose there is no wonder John felt so impressed to emphasize love among the believers. He was blessed to walk with the Lord, studying ...read more
