Suddenly from Heaven Articles

If you will read in the last chapters of Matthew and of Luke the commission that Christ gave to His disciples, and, in connection, read the first and second chapters of the book of Acts, you will be prepared to appreciate what I have to say at this time.
In Mark 12:30 we read, “And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.” To love God with all your heart means with every atom of your being. He wants you to love Him supremely and with everything that is within you.
