Lesson 6: “Expounding the Faith”
We must pause a moment and look at that word agape. It’s the Greek word for love, but it is an entirely different idea than we know naturally. The love we have by nature loves people who are nice; God’s agape loves people who are mean and bad. Our love depends on the beauty or value of the person whom we love; God’s love creates value or goodness in the one whom He loves. There’s where our hope lies! ~ Robert J. Wieland
"People are not simply counted righteous, but actually made righteous, by the obedience of Christ, who is as righteous as He ever was, and who lives today in those who yield to Him. His ability to live in any human being is shown in the fact that he took human flesh eighteen hundred years ago. What God did in the person of the Carpenter of Nazareth, He is willing and anxious to do for every man that believes." Ellet J. Waggoner
Paul Penno
All of human life both in the past, present, and future exists because it is justified by the cross. Calvary justifies the existence of all life.
Paul Penno
The Bible never speaks of salvation as God’s offer. But it does constantly speak of God’s gift in Christ Jesus. And that gift has been given to every man, woman, and child on the earth.
