Everlasting Life

I have been meditating on the scripture John 3:16 which says “God so loved the World, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” Those two magical words, ‘everlasting life’, what does that phrase mean to you?

The Nature of God

Over the centuries, philosophers and theologians have often struggled to understand the nature of the God who we so often discuss.
