- Part Three - Jesus as Love Text: John 2:23 – 25 This passage is a good example to me why it is important to meditate on the Word of the Lord. You can mistake the meaning of the word if you only glance at it. You could read this and wonder if Jesus didn’t trust men. Is this saying that Jesus ...read more
