A Completed Love that brings Confidence.
For many Christians, the love of God is spoken in past tense. They saw the love of God in the cross, became born-again, but live tip-toing around God. John tells us we can have confidence around God. When the topic of the day of judgement is brought up many become uneasy. As…

Come to Know and Believe.
John called himself a fascinating title: 23 One of his disciples, the one Jesus loved, was reclining close beside Jesus. John 13:23 2 So she went running to Simon Peter and to the other disciple, the one Jesus loved, and said to them, “They’ve taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don’t know…
