2. LOVE! It all begins and ends with LOVE! John 3:16. At the second coming of Christ, his kingdom will appear in power and glory. This glorious kingdom has already entered into history ! The life of God's Kingdom, which will be realised in all its fullness when Christ comes again, has entered into the present so that men may now be born again and enter into God's Kingdom - the sphere of his reign, the realm of His blessings. Tomorrow is here today.

Joshua 24:14-15. Chose today whom you will serve...As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.
