God expected them 10 love. He said:
You can't tell how much OF a

size OF the hat he wears. He may
asye a big head and. a little heart
like fellow pitching baseball.
When he played he had ten thou
sand dollar arm. but a five-cent head.
Today he il, shoveling coal for $3.50
day. He had the best arm OF any
fellow that ever walked into the box
but he had a five-cent head. In other
words, he had no bean. He was a

but they are strangers TO God. Fill

never take the sin out. of your heart
no That comes through faith in
Jesus Christ Culture can polish, but
never can regenerate. No. not at all.
In the arithmetic of heaven nothing
counts but love. Culture without
love is like an electric light in a

Faith without love, that's power
without a heart It's a stick of dy-
Mantle under your own house. It's

Yes, it's an avalanche which rushes
down the mountain and brushes ev-

OF Job with the blindness Of bat.

that. Love your enemies, not their

The deeds Of any saloon keeper. 1
don't love the deeds Of any prosti-
7ute, I don't love the deeds OF any

doesn't ask anyone to do that. He
asks YOU to love their souls but you
don't have to love their ways. No. the
bible don't ask you to do il.
Love your enemy Whether
they are profane or not depends on
whether you find them at dog night
