thirsting soul.

While in Bible college I heard a number of discussions/arguments over an over. One that I heard on several occasions goes something like this: ‘Too many people focus too much on theology and doctrine and not enough on love’ and of course the vice versa: ‘Too many people focus too much on love and not enough on theology and doctrine.’ 

so which is it? Love or doctrine? the answer is simple: Yes. 

Philippians 1:9- And it is my prayer that your love may abound more and more with knowledge and all discernment… 

Do you seek to love God more? You will grow in knowledge of Him. You will be a student of His word and prayer. You should even venture to read good books.

Do you study His word and read good books? If so, you should be growing more in your love for God Himself. 

If these things aren’t true of the Christian there is a disconnect between your mind and heart.
