A simple message

Just as the Father loved me, so did I love you. Remain in my love. John 15: 9

The great Swiss theologian, Dr. Karl Barth, was probably of his generation the greatest theologian in the world, and a great philosopher too. I didn't always agree with him, but he was my friend and I respected him. While in this country, a student at one of the seminars said : "Dr. Barth, what is the greatest truth that ever crossed your mind ? All the seminary students sat on the edge of their seats to hear a wonderful, deep, deep and complicated response. Dr. Barth slowly raised his big shaggy gray head and looked at the student and said : "Jesus loves me, I know, because the Bible tells me."

Prayer for the day

Lord Jesus, that I always keep the knowledge of your love in true simplicity, unhindered by a lot of learning. Thanks for loving me.

Billy Graham
