    What Jesus Teaches Us About Loving Our Enemies

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 26, 2015
     | 5,877 views

    No matter how hard we try, we know that there are going to be flaws & blemishes in our life. We know that we are not without sin because the Bible tells us so. So let’s take a look at the subject of love.

    If there is one thing the world really needs to know more about, & to put into practice, it is "love." How often Jesus tells us to love one another. In John 15:12 He commanded us to love one another. In fact "love" is so important that Jesus devoted a whole section of the Sermon on the Mount to ...read more

    Guidelines For Christianity: The Fruit Of Meekness Series

     | 4,659 views

    If we are meek, if we are gentle, then we are God controlled. We will have to be considerate to people, and we will also be considerate toward God.

    Gentleness and meekness are basically the same. Why aren’t some people gentle? There are some who say things that set you on edge, & you’re convinced that they enjoy doing it? They come into your home & say, "Where did you find that wall-paper?" And it’s obvious that ...read more
