    Paul asks the Corinthians if they want him to come to them in love, or with the rod.

    THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: Sometimes in our zeal to clean up our own lives or the lives of others, we unfortunately use “killer soaps”—condemnation, criticism, nagging, fits of temper.

    What It Takes To Make A Difference

    Contributed by John Slythe on Mar 6, 2003
    based on 96 ratings
     | 18,487 views

    What does it take to make such an impact on our society that God’s Word penetrates even the darkest corners of the region? Maybe one of the smallest book in the Bible has the answer.

    What it Takes to Change The World: The Book of Philemon is very interesting. Its probably a book we hear quoted the least out of all the books of the Bible and probably one that we look at the least. The book is a letter of Paul. But instead of a letter to a church, it’s a letter to a person – ...read more

    Kindness and gentleness are fruits of the Spirit. If there were a trial today and being kind and gentle were a crime, would there be enough evidence to convict us?
