     | 35,212 views

    God’s love is supremely exhibited in the cross of Christ.

    The cross of Christ – by which we mean his suffering, and death, and resurrection – is a topic packed with significance. Without the cross, there would be no Christianity. No forgiveness of sins, no eternal life, no hope for the future, no power for this present life. The cross is more than a ...read more

    Tina Turner asked this question but she downplayed the significance of love; calling it a ‘second-hand emotion’ and a ‘sweet old-fashioned notion'. But for those who understand the true essence of love it means much more. What’s love got to do with it?

    WHAT’S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT? Tina Turner asked this question but for a different reason than what I’ll be focusing on today. In fact, in her song, she downplays the significance of love; calling it a ‘second-hand emotion’ and a ‘sweet old-fashioned notion'. She ...read more
