Scripture: 1 John 1:1-5
In Part 10 of this series we examine what Jesus said about making an oath. In this message we see that as a Christian our word should be our bond - it should be proof enough of our intention or past actions. We should never have to make an oath to ensure someone believes what we are saying.

A friend asked him why he went so far when there were plenty of other churches near his home.

A TRUE DEFINITION OF LOVE. ...read more
