    The old Gospel hymn says "Oh, how I love Jesus", but in John 14 Jesus implies that not everyone who says they love Him actually do. Just because I go to church regularly doesn’t mean I really love Him, so how can I know I really love Jesus like I say I do

There is a name I love to hear, I love to sing its worth; It sounds like music in my ear, the sweetest name on earth. CHORUS: O, how I love Jesus, O, how I love Jesus, O, how I love ...read more

    How do we receive God and therefore receive divine love in order that we can love?

    What is divine love? 1 Jo 4:8 …God is love It isn’t that God has love as an attribute, no, God is Himself love. His very nature is love. Who then has this divine love and therefore can divinely love others? Since God is love, whoever has God has love; whoever has more of God has ...read more
