Love and Righteousness

Love And Righteousness

                     God is the creator and Sustainer of the universe
                                 Since God alone can forgive sins,
                       He came down from heaven and became man
                                 to save his people from their sins

                                        The Bible is full of heroes
                                     that God stood by and helped

                              Samson was given supernatural strength
                               by God in order to combat his enemies

                David at fifteen brought down Goliath with a sling and a rock

                         Moses became a fugitive when he intervened
                                    on behalf of a Hebrew slave by
                                   killing an Egyptian slave master,
                               and freeing the Israelites from slavery

                    God gave Noah detailed instructions for building the ark

                  There were many others that God chose to help his people
                                        for love and righteousness

Thank you, Rick, I really didn't know what to say on the rebuttal, But one day my husband said to me that God could never forgive him for his wrong doing because he had done a lot of bad things while he was in the service and I told him a similar story. He realize God can forgive him. Blessings and hugs Eve :~)
