Love and Fear.


There are only two things in the world: Love and fear.

And this applies to scripture.

If we apply this method to the interpretation of scripture it becomes apparent that the violent, vengeful, judgemental passages of scripture are inspired by fear.

What remains if we remove these fear-inspired passages is The Love of God.

And this is the Reality:

God loves us.

He does not punish us or judge us.

His mercy is infinite.

And His forgiveness is everlasting.
