How does God's love abide in anyone who has the world's goods and sees a brother or sister in need and refuses help? God is love, and those who abide in love abide in God, and God abides in them. Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness on the day of judgment, because as He is, so are we in this world (1 John 3:17; 4:16b-17).

Our society is plagued with many social ills--abuse, drugs,violence, corruption, perversion. In the power of the Holy Spirit, and as God is with us, we come against the devil's schemes to steal, kill, and destroy. In Jesus' name, be it on earth as it is in heaven! (Acts 10:38; Jn. 10:10; Eph.6:12; Matt. 6:10)
