    Abiding in Love

    1 John 4:7-12 ESV Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that...

    Genesis 20:6

    How does this verse apply to our lives in the here and now? Does God really restrain people but taking away our free will or was this only something done in biblical days?

    Toxic family

    When I grew up my dad always treated me harshly while treated my sisters like princesses. Whenever I did something that was bad I would be afraid because my mum would tell my dad when he got home and he would sometimes smack me with the sole of his shoes several times or with his belt or with...

    Because of His Amazing Grace

    1 John 3:1-3 ESV See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Beloved, we are God's children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when...

    What's Your Practice?

    1 John 2:1-2 NASB My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous; and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world...

    How Do We Love?

    1 John 4:1-6 NASB Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God; and every...

    Hate Crime of Act of Love ???Luke 9

    When I saw a bus driver faces 2 years in prison for handing out salvation leaflets, I cried. That is the world we live in now , that act is being called a hate crime. For sometime now the Lord has been showing us the children are in danger. Everything is about the soul , now and the souls of...

    My husband cheated on me n I hate the women he slept with

    I apologize for my spelling I'm typing on my phone. So My husband cheated on me the first year of marriage. It was not an emotional affair with another women. He would come home late from work and I always felt that he was cheating on me and I wanted so bad to follow him to catch him but I never...

    Amos 5

    Amos 5 is a great reminder we do not want to make God mad. We see why Jesus said in this life only fear Him and 2 Peter 2:21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. Really...

    Homosexuals In Full Flight

    There is a thread here which talks about ex-homosexuals getting together to celebrate their deliverance from bondage. Having worked as a counselor in this area I can assure you it is a bondage. In a Christian Forum which this is, you can be sure that if a thread discusses anything about...

    Does Jesus love unconditionally? Jesus says, "No"!

    John 15:9-10 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. How does one spew forth doctrine that Jesus loves unconditionally if the above...

    The Debt of Love

    As followers of Jesus Christ, to love or to not love others is not an option that is on the table. We are obligated to love others with God’s love, because he, who is love, lives within us, and because he, who is love, loved us enough to die for us so that we might be forgiven our sins and have...

    As Christ Loved Us

    How are we to love one another? What should that look like? What does it mean to love others “as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us”? “Follow God's example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant...

    Love and Acknowledge

    What does it mean to acknowledge someone? Can this be merely intellectual or emotional recognition? Can this be merely verbal confession? Does any of that count as true (complete) acknowledgment? What does it mean to love people as Christ loved us - with God-like love? Can we love people and...

    In Harmony

    Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in brotherly love; give preference to one another in honor; not lagging behind in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; rejoicing in hope, persevering in tribulation, devoted to prayer...

    Love Conquers All

    Saturday, November 11, 2017, 8:30 a.m. – The Lord Jesus put in mind the song “My Jesus, I Love Thee.” Speak, Lord, your words to my heart. I read 1 John 2 (Quoting select vv. NASB). We Know Him (vv. 1-6) My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. And if...

    God Hating Someone?

    Good Evening All, I came across Roman 9:13 stating "13 As it is written, “Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated.” This was a little troubling, since of course God does not hate His children. I read into this and learned that the Hebrew equivalent to hate just means that you don't love them...
