People who want a divorce say, “I’m not in love anymore” as though the fleeting feeling of love is the basis for marriage. Real love is what marriage requires you to do – commit loving acts toward your spouse for the glory of God! It’s an ACTION and not a feeling primarily, though it is a…
There are 2 types of people in this world: believers in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and UNbelievers. Both need repentance and forgiveness. Believers need Fatherly forgiveness from God on a continual basis for sins. Believers must repent and believe in Christ asking God to forgive them. Unbelievers need judicial forgiveness from God on…
Like in the Old Testament, there are 3 words for forgiveness in the New Testament. These terms suggest that forgiveness is granted based upon human repentance. Eph. 4:32 says: “Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.” How did Christ forgive you? He forgave you when you repented for your sins!…
In the Old Testament, there are 3 words for “forgiveness.” Guess what? All 3 are conditional upon repentance!

I couldn’t wait to share this great news with you: someone we’ve been working with the past month just came to know the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior and as Lord! This person says that Jesus was never “Lord” of his life though he prayed to ask Jesus to “save” him as a child. This…

In our Articles of Incorporation, it states TIL’s purpose: The purpose of Truth in Love shall be to educate and train the Body of Christ to make and multiply disciples of Jesus Christ within their own respective communities and cultures for the glory of God. The word “cultures” is purposely in that statement as I…
