    Central to worship is the “us” and “Him,” not the place and means.

    Scripture Introduction God is seeking worshippers in spirit and truth. That does not mean that God seeks to make worshippers, as if there were people not worshipping whom he hopes to change.

     | 2,736 views

    We are to add on and be able to answer when asked about our faith.

    How many of us have heard it said from some one near to us, “If you love me, you will love me as I am.” It is the nature of true love to love what is unlovely and even the unlovable.
