    Since God is love, we ought to be loving to the world on his behalf. A call to be the instruments of Love to our world in the new year.

    As I have reflected this week as to what I think might well be the most important thing for us to know about the faith that we are planning to grow in during the year to come, I have come to the following conclusion: We must realize that we are in fact children of God. Not that we have earned ...read more

    To say that God is love does not mean that love is God.

    God is Love 1 John 4:8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. God is not sometimes loving and sometimes unloving, today loving some people and hating others, and tomorrow hate those who were previously loved. In everything God does, always, in dealing with all people, God ...read more

    No other word in the English language is so misused or misunderstood as the word LOVE. Looking to the Bible we can see what God says Love is.

    The purpose of this sermon is to demonstrate that Paul intended 1 Corinthians 9 as a personal example of the point that he made in chapter 8. That point being that Christians are to give up their rights for the cause of others and to demonstrate love.

    1 Corinthians An Example of Love 1 Corinthians 9:1-18 March 23, 2003 Intro: A. [If Sermon Offends Thee] A preacher came to the breakfast table with a cut on his cheek.

    Pontius Pilate even attempted to engage Jesus Christ in a philosophical discussion of the nature of truth when he asked “What is truth?”

    ******************* Loving truth 2 Thess. 2:10b “…because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.” It is sobering to realize that this statement implies that we don’t naturally love the truth. Nor, for that matter, can we be saved without loving the truth. Jesus ...read more
