331 - The Love behind All Loves

By Jonathan S. Rose

Title: The Love behind All Loves

Topic: Salvation

Summary: There are many kinds of love, some are good, some are evil. But there's ultimately only one love behind them all. That love may seem invisible and undetectable, but it is actually the only love that is true and pure.

Psalms 109:1-5

Study

      

1 God of my praise, don't remain silent,

2 for they have opened the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of deceit against me. They have spoken to me with a lying tongue.

3 They have also surrounded me with words of hatred, and fought against me without a cause.

4 In return for my love, they are my adversaries; but I am in prayer.

5 They have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
