Love Unquenchable

Contributed by Richard Tow on Feb 1, 2016

In many sectors of our society “tolerance” is equated with “love.” But is that a biblical concept? God is love; but was He tolerant of Sodom’s sin? Perhaps current assumptions about what love is should be examined in the light of biblical revelation.

Love Unquenchable (10-18-15 www.LifeChurchSpringfield.org) I take as my theme these words from Song of Solomon 8:7 “Many waters cannot quench love, Nor can the floods drown it….” On November 5, 1982 a precious gift from God was laid in my arms. Jeanie and I named her Kathy Jean ...read more

Will What A Christian Has Done Be Judged Publicly Before Everyone?

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jun 17, 2014

For the Christian, will our sins "be shown on a big screen for everyone to see"? I argue that while we are forgiven and saved by grace, our sins will be brought up at the Bema Judgment because they impact our fruitfulness.

The Big Screen Question: Will what a Christian has done (including their sins) be judged publicly on a big screen? - John MacArthur says no. He says that our sins will not be mentioned at all. I disagree. - The issue, of course, is not the big screen, but rather whether in the process of being ...read more
