    Romans 8 gives us a great picture of God's love both "in us" and "for us."

    What is so bad about the world that we are told not to love it? Why is the world so evil? 1- The lust of the flesh 2- The lust of the eyes 3- The pride of life

    INTRO.- 15Do not love the world or anything in the world. What part of "no" do you not understand? Or better yet: What part of "do not" do you not understand? Who said those words?

    Independence Day 1986: Fear leads to oppression, and vice versa. We overcome our fears by discovering the love that empowers us in the sacrificial death of Christ.

    I've noticed that what older people fear is very much like what small children fear. Older people fear going out alone into the darkness; they are afraid they cannot find their way, they are afraid they may have some kind of difficulty and will be vulnerable to people with evil intentions. ...read more

    Something is missing from the church today, and people are starting to notice. Too often the church fails to offer what it advertises: life.

    2. The Greatest Commandment February 21, 2010 Love your Neighbor I find it amusing when people talk about the loving feeling they have for each other.

    We can tell others that we love them--that God loves them until we are blue in the face, but they will not understand our speech until it is put into action…until it is tangible…until it awakens in them, an understanding, a craving for what they need most

    This is a very simple thought that the Lord has been plowing into my heart the last several days. It seems like every circumstance for the past week or so has pointed back to this principle: Love People, Like Things, Live for God.
