    A reminder of Jesus' words that we would be known by our love one for another.

    MALICE IN WONDERLAND I found a bizarre article in the newspaper not to long ago. It read… “Jimmy Bivins, a heavyweight title contender during the 1940s, underwent surgery after police found him wasting away in a dark, filthy attic. Bivins, 78 years old, was discovered by police who were ...read more

    Sermon on God’s Love toward us.

    THE LOVE OF GOD I TITUS 3:4 I must admit that I have preached on the subject we will be looking at today on several occasions. But it is a subject that we do well at looking at over and over again. It is obvious from the Bible that we do learn by the three “R’s” Repetition, repetition, ...read more

    In contrast to what the world calls love, this sermon explains the Bible’s definition of what real love is.

    WHAT ARE THEY - HOW DO YOU EXPERIENCE THEM?

    The young couple were obviously very much in love.When they came to the Vicarage to ask if I`d marry them it shone out of their faces.

    The Prerequisite Of Love

     | 10,054 views

    In our Scripture for today we can easily conclude that love is not an emotion as much as it is an emulation of the One who first loved us. Love is more than a longing -- it is an action.

    The Prerequisite Of Love 1 John 4:7-12 I first heard the report on the radio as I was driving to work this week - Jane Fonda had given her life to Christ. The woman who has recently gone through a divorce to Ted Turner, sold more exercise videos than Bill Gates has sold Windows, and who has been ...read more

    The wonderful thing about being made God’s children is that he gives us his Spirit to enable us to be like him, and that likeness is shown most clearly in our love for others. And so, as we love one another, God lives in us, and his love is perfected in u

    I always get edgy when I hear someone make a definitive statement about God. There are so many aspects to God that any single statement always feels a bit deficient. So, for example, when someone says God is all-powerful, I find myself waiting for them to add that he’s also all-knowing, and ...read more

    “No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us. By this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit” 1 Jn. 4:12-13.

    God’s love shown to us in Christ is all we need to soothe our guilty conscience and in turn to find the freedom to forgive others.

    The Fab Four sang about it. In fact their words and music are immortalized on Oldies radio. And rightly so. The Beatles seemed to be on to something. “All you need is love,” they sang. And that appeared to be the right message for a hurt and frightened world. Love is all you need. It’s all ...read more
