The Stones of Gilgal biblical novels—a THEN GOD story from beginning to end.

[C.L. Smith @clsmithsword]

Bringing the world together. This is the coolest thing about the World Cup! I love this song and video.

@JenniferJillS That is exactly why we are in this world. To face off with evil, not as combatants with some superior understanding of Truth or a better solution to instill justice and end pain and suffering but as ambassadors of love.

[C.L. Smith @clsmithsword]

@JenniferJillS @tyfgibson Thanks, Jennifer. Looking at those opposite fears deepens the understanding of what we have in God. “I will never leave you” and “I can do all things through Christ.” Hallelujah! Amen!

[C.L. Smith @clsmithsword]

@tyfgibson And God does it perfectly! ❤️ The LORD will guide you always;
he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land
and will strengthen your frame.
You will be like a well-watered garden,
like a spring whose waters never fail. Is 58:11

[C.L. Smith @clsmithsword]

@tyfgibson And how many Christians even understand the crucial difference? I would say self-sacrificing LOVE. What say you?

@johnrobertsFox @BenjaminHallFNC 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[C.L. Smith @clsmithsword]

@BethMooreLPM Amen.

[C.L. Smith @clsmithsword]

@BethMooreLPM Amen! Amen!

[C.L. Smith @clsmithsword]

@BethMooreLPM True Bible study makes us think! I have loved your use of the Greek and Hebrew word meanings. Hebrew especially often has so many possibilities and layers of meaning tying one word into the overarching story of the Bible. It’s meant to be God’s heart-melting story not just rules.

@greglaurie Lord, make me a thermostat set to radiate your perfect LOVE..

[C.L. Smith @clsmithsword]

A question I need to ask myself everyday. Lord, make me a thermostat set to the temperature of your perfect LOVE.

[Greg Laurie @greglaurie]

Do you set the temperature in the room, or do you merely reflect it? To put it another way, are you changing the world, or is the world changing you?

[C.L. Smith @clsmithsword]

@kevincorke Amen May we all spread photons of the true light this week! Blessing as we are blessed.

[C.L. Smith @clsmithsword]

@dasscherick Fortunately, our Lord is the WORD. The final Word defining the ultimate meaning of everything.

@AnilKanda79 Thanks for that reminder before the chaos hits! Love the painting—source?

[C.L. Smith @clsmithsword]

@tyfgibson Anti-love. There is no better definition of sin. Jesus wrap your force field of love around us every day. Shield our hearts and minds from the evil one as we batter the gates of hell in whatever rescue missions you send us on.

@SethJPierce A number of years ago, I was given a beautiful opportunity to speak to my students about what God really cares about (https://t.co/idwkxXD9pb) when an Adventist group of kids told a Christian boy of another faith that he wouldn’t go to heaven because he was eating a ham sandwich.

[Ty Gibson @tyfgibson]

Friedrich Nietzsche articulated a truism of human nature that’s more relevant now than ever in this age of moral outrage: “He who fights with monsters should take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you.”
