Question/Comments: I’VE BEEN SO DISCOURAGED WITH CHURCH AS I KNOW IT, AND THE LACK OF LOVE TO ONE ANOTHER DESPLAYING THE TRUE HEART OF GOD. I SEE GIFTS BUT NO LOVE, AND WHEN I CAME ACROSS YOUR VIDEO, I SAW LOVE...FREEDOM...UNITY...JOY – SOMTHING I HAD BEEN LOOKING FOR IN THE ESTABLISHED CHURCHES. DO YOU HAVE A CHURCH IN NORTH CAROLINA?
THANK YOU FOR DESPLAYING THE FATHER’S HEART. I PRAY I GET TO MEET YOU ONE DAY. CAN WE HAVE GIFTS WITHOUT LOVE IS THE QUESTION I BEEN ASKING MYSELF.

Yes, Renee, the gifts of God can be exercised without the love of God. If you ever see that happening, pray for the people involved. God has many good people who need guidance and strength as they labor to do the work of the Lord as it should be done.
As for church religion, in my judgment, God’s people would be better off without it. There is nothing wrong, Renee, with gathering in a home with a few happy souls to worship God instead of attending church meetings filled with division and confusion. Jesus promised that he would be in the midst of two or three who gathered in his name. If we would all simply trust what Jesus said, and act on it, we would all be happier and more united in the faith of Christ than we are at present.
Saints around here meet to worship the Lord and edify one another in a home near Burlington, NC, in southern Alamance County. If you ever plan to come this way, let us know. We would love to meet you.
