I am firmly convinced that every human being has an unquenchable longing for love, and to love and be loved, because God is love (1 John 4:8). The love a person feels for another is just a minute shadow of God’s love for EVERYONE! Jesus Christ is the very definition of love itself and the empirical ...read more

Jesus Came To Us, But Who Knew? Series

Contributed by John Murphy on Mar 27, 2010
