A WORD FROM THE PASTOR

"And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.  1 Corinthians 13:13 (KJV)

Of all the gifts and graces that are poured out in great abundance into the lives of believers, there are three that out-shine and out-last all others.  When prophecy is complete, languages cease, signs are silenced... and miracles of health, healing, provision, and protection are no longer needed.  We are told that these three, biblical virtues will continue and will remain and abide into the eternal state - faith, hope, and love.

Both faith and hope are a beautiful manifestation of the love of God in the life of a believer, because we live by faith and not by sight;  and we live in hope of our promised, eternal state... while we live in incorruptible bodies.  But love is the greatest of all, for we will experience God's love in an ever increasing measure - not only in this present age but in the eternal ages to come.
