    based on 19 ratings
     | 10,366 views

    Love is an uncommon force that copes with suffering. By enduring the pain, sorrow and anger we are exhibiting God’s unconditional love. People who are mature in love endure the pain of selfish, critical and immature scoffers.

There were those who were false teachers during John's day who claimed that they were apostles, too, just like John.
