If love dwelleth not in trouble, it could have nothing to love! But its substance which it loves, namely the poor soul, being in trouble and pain, it has thence cause to love this its own substance and to deliver it from pain, that so itself may by it be again beloved! Jakob Bohme (1575-1624) Comment: Jakob Bohme was a theologian but was also sometimes considered a mystic! He wrote a lot of books but was sometimes disciplined by the Lutheran Church in Germany. Any theology has to be compared against scripture. His writings do invoke thought! My first thought was did God love us more after salvation than before? No! What happens is we love Him more after salvation! God loved Adam and Eve before sin! God’s love was the first cause for everything and I believe did not require sin to initiate His love!

Part Time Christian?
If Christ is not all to you He is nothing to you! He will never go into partnership as a part savior of men. If He is something He must be everything, and if He is not everything He is nothing to you! Charles Spurgeon (1834-1892)
What is Better Than The Lottery?
If you gain, you gain all! If you lose, you lose nothing! Wager then, without hesitation, that God exists! Blaise Pascal (1623-1662)
How Many Ways Can You Bake a Cake?
Jesus does not give recipes that show the way to God as other teachers of religion do. He Himself is the way! Karl Barth (1886-1968)

D-Day, June 6, 1944 World War II
Let us remember the fallen American’s today with 29000 casualties on D-Day and 407000 total losses of U.S. military in World War II. World War II so far has been our deadliest conflict on earth with about 70 million total deaths! Let us not forget the thousands of wounded who bore the wounds for the rest of their lives! They sacrificed for us and changed history so that we can live in freedom today! Give tribute to them today! Remember this quote; “The United States has since the end of World War II had an answer- we stand for free peoples and free markets, we are willing to support and defend them- we will sustain a balance of power that favors freedom!” Condoleezza Rice
Know Your Bible!
Clearly the person who accepts the Church as an infallible guide will believe whatever the Church teaches! Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274)

Sharia Law
God requireth not a uniformity of religion to be enacted and enforced in any civil state; which enforced uniformity (sooner or later) is the greatest occasion for civil war, ravishing of conscience, persecution of Christ Jesus in His servants, and of the hypocrisy and destruction of millions of souls! American Colonialist Pastor Roger Williams (1603-1684)
