     | 4,780 views

     | 2,042 views

    We know as Christians that we have a friend, his name is Jesus. And we know as Christians that we have an enemy, and his name is Satan.

    Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you.

    A classic sermon by D. L. Moody on the importance, power, and indispensibility of Christian love.

The way this writer has put it -- and I think it is very beautiful -- is that joy is love exultant, peace is love in repose, and long suffering is love enduring. ...read more
