    Heaven Is A World Of Love Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 4, 2021
     | 3,669 views

    Whenever Christians are full of envy and strife, it obscures the evidence of heaven. The clouds of hatred darken the evidence of Heaven’s love for us.

Love is the God-given proof that you are Christ’s disciples (John 13:35). This is a message about the future but it is also a map for the present. Since ...read more
