But in order for us to love others, we need to be able to Forgive others. • Because everyone of us has already been forgiven through Jesus. • When He became our sacrifice . . He paid ...read more

     | 8,361 views

    If life is to be meaningful there must be a God who ensures justice. God is not indifferent to evil, yet His wrath was satisfied in the death of His Son. Sin must be punished--and it was--on the Cross.

    Thomas Jefferson, in a somber moment, noted: “I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just.” How long will God put up with a people who have turned from Him and have forsaken righteousness? We may question why God punishes sin, but we also need to also ask why He ...read more
