How To Measure Love Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 30, 2021

Love is only effective and truly Christian love when it is built on the foundation of all the other virtues. As soon as this is forgotten love becomes sentimental, and is reduced to an emotion, and its power is gone.

Tradition says that John the Apostle of love was carried to the Christian assembly when he was so old he could not walk, and his constant advice was, "Children love one another." When he was asked why he told them one thing all the time he replied that nothing else was needed. On the ...read more

The Victory Of The Crucified King

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 25, 2022
