God’s true gospel of free and sovereign grace teaches us the profound, unchanging nature of divine love. Unlike the shallow, emotion-driven notion of love promoted by our culture, God’s love in Christ is steadfast, covenantal, and unfailing.

They assume everything to be fine, knowing not they are wretched, miserable, poor, blind and naked.
Bless the Lord, O My Soul!
