"The Bible defines God very clearly—He is love (see 1 John 4:8). This is what He wants you to know Him for today—His unfailing love for you." - Pastor Joseph Prince
I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died. And the commandment, which was to bring life, I found to bring death. Romans 7:9–10 In 1942, C S Lewis wrote a brilliant book entitled The Screwtape Letters . It tells the story of a senior demon teaching a junior demon how to exploit man’s weaknesses and frailties.
