The Bonds of Love - Oct. 15, 2000

Sermon 10-15-00 The bonds of love

Scripture
David kills Goliath/Saul wants him around
David & Jonathan become friends
Needed friendship…..hard times are ahead
There is joy in the bonds of love

Russia
Apparent joy on the faces, in the hearts of Russian UMC
Moscow….a melting pot…all different kinds
I want to get to the bottom of this
1. Valentina….do you have a family
2. Dump Lydia….she will learn
3. Vitale is annoying…..3 times the kgb tried to kill him/gulag
Maybe its this: What else do they have?
Maybe the bonds of love in Christ hold them together

Woods Chapel
“Say its good to be back home again”
Wife and children
My church family
I sat in Russia and thought of you
I hope you know how special it is to have those in your life that you are bonded to

Conclusion
We have killed some giants
We have had, & will have some hard times,
But we have hope. For the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the HS
