Chapter 2: Traditions, Traditions, Traditions…

The “traditions of men” are, as the phrase suggests, the products of men. Some traditions may be harmless or even helpful, but like all human efforts, they are fallible. Over time many traditions have been elevated to the status of absolutes. The doctrine of eternal conscious torment is one of these. Since around 500 A.D., …

It was far from a best seller—at the time of this writing, I purchased all but two of the copies sold. One was bought by the man I call my preacher, though we have never met face-to-face. …

Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves has been born of God, and knows God. He who doesn’t love doesn’t know God, for God is love. By this God’s love was revealed in us, that God has sent his one and only Son into the world that …
