Ask ten people to define love, and you’ll likely get ten different answers. Some spend a lifetime searching for its meaning, but Jesus has already shown us exactly what love is. He knelt and washed the feet of the very men who would abandon Him that same night, and He did it because He truly loved them. Love is more than a feeling; it is a choice to put others before ourselves, expecting nothing in return. Jesus not only demonstrated this love; He commanded His followers to love others the same way, promising that all who do will be blessed. The question is, are we loving others the way Jesus has loved us?
Beware of Religious Conmen
Every year, elder fraud in America costs older adults more than $7 billion. What’s even more shameful is that some of the people swindling them are religious conmen who claim to speak for God. Sometimes the greatest threat to our faith lies inside the church, not outside its walls. Jesus warned His followers to beware of anyone who uses religion for personal enrichment by preying on the vulnerable. There are many of these false teachers in churches today. Do you know how to spot them?
