    Contributed by Andy Brenton on Aug 26, 2014
     | 4,320 views

    God is love, but God is not love ALONE! God is a jealous God and a God of wrath. Therefore, there are some things that God cannot do even though His love for us is so great. If God were to accept the things discussed, it would go against His very nature.

    WHAT GOD’S LOVE DOES NOT DO! “Rom. 5:6-8” A. The Word “Love” Is Used About 400 Times In The Bible. 1. Love Ties Us To Our Relationship With God. 2. John 3:16 GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD 3. John 14:15 IF WE LOVE HIM, WE WILL KEEP… B. Love Is Often ...read more

    Reading The Bible Literally

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Oct 7, 2020
     | 2,083 views

    Paul's instruction that the Corinthians were to "greet one another with a holy kiss" provides a nice open door for discussing whether we are to take the Bible literally. This message looks at four considerations that we need to keep in mind to read the Bible correctly.

When I came into church, I greeted everyone with a holy kiss. - Where were all the cries of “Amen” ...read more
