It encapsulates the meaning of the cross. • He was asking God to give men what they needed most – forgiveness of their sin. • Jesus is going to pay ...read more

     | 4,123 views

    We love immoral people by holding on to what we believe and sympathizing with the weaknesses of others because we know what our weaknesses are.

    Jesus says the most important command of God for us to obey is this, “To love God with all our heart, soul, strength and mind and to love others.” So for the last few weeks we’ve taken some time to define what this kind of love is. We can summarize our last few lessons this way, ...read more
