Already in the eighteenth-century B.C., such international covenants attached religious sanctions that involved the slaughter and cutting up of sacrificial beasts for the making of a covenants. The contracting…
Messy Love
Love is Messy. So how do we remain or become a loving human being? The Bible has a lot to say about love.
