Image
Good Morning  Y'all! We took the vehicle of love out for a long ride through the early and mid sixties love songs last night. Please note, after much listening Elvis Presley wins the Saturday Night Dance Song Award for his rendition of   POWER OF MY LOVE ! But, it's a Good News Sunday type of day, and we are having a Sunday sit down with the Apostle Paul, again, and the Book of Galatians. We've isolated our New Testament subject matter and we're digging into this thing called LOVE. Please feel free to join us as we prayerfully study to get a Holy Grip on The Almighty Power of Biblical LOVE.

Have a blessed day in the Love of our Lord! Re: Key Word Bible Studies

I'm waving it to the donkey and I'm waving it to the elephant. And I'm waving it to the  Coronavirus   in the air.  While studying the Prayers of Paul I discovered  New Testament Love . The Key Word LOVE occurs in the Biblical Text over four hundred times. The Song of Solomon uses the Key Word LOVE at least thirty times. The OT contains two hundred and forty occurrences, while the New Testament logs two hundred and two.
