    What Is Love?

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Aug 2, 2022
     | 1,584 views

    You could get hundreds of answers to this question. The true answer is found in God. God so loved the world.

    The fairy tale ‘Beauty and the Beast’ was not original with Walt Disney. In fact, there are similar fairy tales that go back 4000 years! But it wasn't written into story form by a French Novelist until 1740.

    The story and eventual plays and movies that were made about it drew the attention of theologian G. K. Chesterton. This is what he said about it; “The great lesson of the tale of “Beauty and the Beast” is that a thing must be loved before it is loveable. A person must be loved before that person ...read more

Of course, it is clear that by the time Jesus was ...read more

    The Greatest Love

    Contributed by Michael Bates on Sep 15, 2023

    Human love comes in many forms. Human love is also flawed because with it comes conditions and limitations. God's love though is divine, selfless, unconditional and flawless. There's no other love that even remotely comes close to the love that God has for us.

    The Bible says in 1 John 4:7-16 NIV Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the ...read more
