    Love is not perfectly displayed through human relations because we are human. God is Love and the only perfect love is recorded for us to intellectually read and Spiritually trust.

    What is Contemplative Christianity?

    I appreciate your opinions but I passed from death to life the moment I recognized my sinful self and surrendered my will to the Father through Jesus Christ!
