  • Smorgasbord

  • We can't afford to waste another minute

    Romans 13:2 (MSG)
    If you're irresponsible to the state, then you're irresponsible with God, and God will hold you responsible.

    Romans 13:8 (MSG)
    Don't run up debts, except for the huge debt of love you owe each other. When you love others, you complete what the law has been after all along. The law code—don't sleep with another person's spouse, don't take someone's life, don't take what isn't yours, don't always be wanting what you don't have, and any other "don't" you can think of—finally adds up to this: Love other people as well as you do yourself. You can't go wrong when you love others. When you add up everything in the law code, the sum total is love.

    Romans 13:10-14 (MSG)
    You can't go wrong when you love others. When you add up everything in the law code, the sum total is love.
