The earth is satisfied with the fruit of Your works. Psalm 104.13

So loved

The basis for common grace – grace that reaches to every nook and cranny and creature in the creation – is nothing other than the love of God.

“But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.” Matthew 5.44, 45

Irish Christians demonstrated an appreciation for common grace.

I confesss that I have some trouble following the liberal mindset.
