Apple Of Love Series

Contributed by James Westervelt on Nov 21, 2001

What is "physical fruit"? "An outward evidence of the inward nature of the tree." (We know an apple tree is an apple tree because is produces apples). Likewise, if we are walking in the Spirit, we will evidence His inward presence.

THE APPLE OF LOVE In John 15:8, Jesus declared, "In this is My Father glorified, that you bear much fruit, so shall you be My disciples." We glorify the Father and prove that we are followers of Jesus, when we produce the Fruit of the Spirit. The Fruit of the Spirit is much ...read more

How Is Your Love Life?

Contributed by Ted Sutherland on Mar 8, 2002

True love is a commitment that two people make to one another, not a hole in the ground into which they happen to fall.

Loving The Lord

Contributed by Jonathan Kruschel on Aug 28, 2019

Are you a good Samaritan? We might try to help other people, but is that really what Jesus was trying to teach when he told the story about the good Samaritan? Look to what leads up to this parable and see how Jesus' story is so much more than just a lesson teaching us to help other people.

Someone falls down on the playground, you help them up. If there is someone who is need, you share what you have been ...read more
