    Let’s take one more look at the subject of love. And in doing that, there are 3 things I want you to see: 1. The Magnificence of God’s Love. 2. The Mediocrity of Man’s Love. 3. The Maturity of Christian Love.

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK A. I’m convinced that if there is one thing the world really needs to know more about, & to put into practice, it is love. In fact, so important is love that Jesus devoted a whole section of the Sermon on the Mount to it. ...read more
