Volume 2_ growing in New Zion through faith and truth and training? As servants of the Master; we are to reflect His love towards one another in this otherwise dark world. We cannot be light in darkness if we seem to be self-serving, phony or even unappealing. Our love must be the Bible’s love, tender, aggressive, jealous, forever, emotional, total, and tough! God loves us with tough love. | love my children with tough love, and | must love you with tough love. This is the way we must love each other. | give thanks for the love and protection for all of New Zion. Love disarms hostility, love hides a multitude of faults, love bears burdens, love warms hearts. Love gives us courage; courage to do what we think is impossible. Having the love of Christ in our heart, you will find courage to do as He directs you. Love is something we can all give. There are many out there that are unloved, waiting to be loved. This, we can do, this we must do; offer love through Jesus--His love and A WORD FROM THE ours. Somebody is waiting today--to feel the uncompromising, wonderful, unconditional love of Jesus. Will you go outside the walls of New Zion and share it today? PASTOR In His Love, Be cS et 2H SO ESE RE Sear 5 ae A c= x Sere 2 AN EFFECTIVE “ee SUNDAY SCHOOL IS VITAL!
