Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 1, 2022

The reason for such details about these cities of refuge was these were a fore-shadow of the coming of the Lord Jesus who will be the refuge for all of mankind. Nothing in the bible was recorded without a purpose, but every word that is written has a reason.

Love As I Have Loved

Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on Apr 16, 2025

People don’t naturally love with a 1 Corinthians 13 type love. To love like that, there must be a line of demarcation, a transition from casual to serious, there must be change of heart, you must be Born-Again. Love can transcend these artificial barriers that keep us separated from one another.

Love as I have Loved By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. PRAYER SCRIPTURE: - John 13:31-35 “Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him. If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify ...read more

Love Thinks No Evil

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Dec 22, 2025

If a person stores up every slight and every hurt that has happened to them, it only results in more misery. It solves nothing. If daily the mind is thinking of the evil that the person believes has happened to them, keeping a record of every wrong, it leaves no room for love.
