Thank you, Andy for reminding me and others of the ultimate power of love which transcends all evil, even that which we are experiencing today. Our Creator's world can never be destroyed because it is powered by the love of His Holy Spirit, first and foremost, as it is written.
So why did Paul say that this kind of love (a·gaʹpe) was greater than faith? He wrote, [1 Corinthians 13:2]: “If I have the gift of prophesying and am acquainted with all the sacred secrets and all knowledge, and if I have all the faith so as to transplant mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.” [Compare Matthew 17:20.]
If our efforts to acquire knowledge and grow in faith is undertaken for a selfish purpose, this would bring no benefit from God. Equally, Jesus showed that some would, "prophesy in his name, expel demons in his name, and perform many powerful works in his name" but would not have his approval. [Matthew 7:22, 23]
To acknowledge that I serve my Creator and humbly bend to His Will allows me to find peace and serenity in the midst of a world driven by Satan. I am safe because my Lord makes it so. And now for an interlude singing about another kind of love - just for a laugh! (and I love their rhythm).
Sorry, but it takes me back to my youth and a coffee shop called "Si Bon" where we used to gather and pick up the girls with our (UK) Chevvies outside ready to ride! - wonderful days!
Wow, thank you for this view point! Being an old caucasian woman accused ( by some) of being born a bigot, I just here linked to the idea of original sin! ( yes I have been known to be slow on the uptake 🤪). This brings even more clarity to " up is down".. no matter what or when, we have all been indoctrinated and they have a way to twist your mind. STAY IN YOUR HEART!💚💚💚😍
Thank You. Can never be reminded enough. Bob M was a profit for many. Profit or not, his message so simple and clear, yet powerful. "As it was in the beginning (One love!)
So shall it be in the end (One heart!)"
we need to stop living the lie that we are separate from one another.

While sin is real as evil is real. It is not what is important but love is, as well as forgiveness. We should remember that God is the face of love.
