This article first appeared in the July 2018 Edition of “Food For Thought” Newsletter that is distributed by John 6 Ministries located in Mt. Pearl, NL, CA I would like to revisit Romans 12:9-21, like I did last month. It says, 9 Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. 10 Be devoted to one another in love.

In the edition of “Food for Thought” that was distributed in the spring of 2017, I began a series called, “How to be Victorious in a Spiritual Battle.” In the first part of this series, we delved into Luke 4:1-13.
