Agape Love

The supreme concept of love in the New Testament is agape, which has its ground and foundation in the character of God Himself. This kind of love is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost and is distinct from the world's definition of love. In the Greek language, there are several words for love, including eros, phileo, and agape, each with its own nuances and connotations. Christians are called to manifest the love of God, which is demonstrated through acts of kindness, generosity, and selflessness, even towards those who may be considered enemies. [... more]

God Helps Those Who Help Themselves - Part A

This is in contrast to the popular misconception that God helps those who help themselves, which has its roots in ancient Greek and Chinese philosophies.

God's help is not just about providing for our physical needs, but also about guiding us towards spiritual maturity and salvation. [... more]

God's Electing Love

The concept of God's sovereign love is a complex and multifaceted aspect of His character, encompassing attributes such as election, predestination, and holy love. This love is eternal and unchanging, yet it is also a loving sovereignty that chooses some people for salvation while passing over others. The goal of predestination is our sanctification, and the purpose of God's sovereign election is to create a holy seed, a redeemed portion, that will fulfill the original purpose of creation. God's love is not arbitrary or whimsical, but rather a good pleasure that is grounded in His will to show forth His glory and honor the perfect work of His son. [... more]
