    Christian Love

    A classic sermon by D. L. Moody on the importance, power, and indispensibility of Christian love.

The way this writer has put it -- and I think it is very beautiful -- is that joy is love exultant, peace is love in repose, and long suffering is love enduring. ...read more

    There are certain traits that should characterize a believer who serves the Lord. We are to obey him in doing good works, so others can see God’s love and kindness through us. We are to teach God’s word with passion and conviction.

    If our lives ended today, how would those around us assess our contribution to our fellow man? Our example leaves an impression on others. With God’s help, it will be one of love, faith and purity of life. The book of Titus captures the pattern God gave for every believer and the direction ...read more
