GOD IS LOVE AND LOVE IS FOR EVERYONE
It is impossible to love each other without a sense of mutual (equal) worth and respect for each other.
ROMANS 13:10
Love worketh no ill to a neighbor: Therefore love is fulfilling of the law.
1st JOHN 4:20
It is impossible to love God, whom we’ve never seen and hate our brothers and sisters who we see every day.
God is neither male nor female, God is spirit and spirit has no gender.

God is spirit, alive and at work in the Muslim Mosque, the Jewish Synagogue, the Christian Church, and the Tribal Ritual. God is everywhere present.
We believe the Bible and all great spiritual writings or guides must be read taking into consideration the time of the writing, the traditions practiced at that time and the fact that we have the right to question and examine all interpretation.
