Manna for Soul
. . . let us stop just saying we love people; let us really love them, and show it by our actions. –1 John 3:18 (TLB)
The Bible declares that we who follow Christ should be just as much in love with each other as God was in love with us when He sent His Son to die on the cross. The moment we come to Christ, Scripture says, God gives us supernatural love that is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit. The greatest demonstration of the fact that we are Christians is that we love one another. Why not go out of our way to be a friend to someone whose skin is a different color from ours? Love does more to solve our problems than anything else does. Of all the gifts God offers His children, love is the greatest. Of all the fruits of the Holy Spirit, love is the first.
PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Jesus, loving Lord, teach me real love—mine is often shallow in my relationship to others.

The history of BTM Church goes back to the year 1999 when Pastor:Rev.Vincent Noronha was serving the Lord at Banaswadi space Bible Church, God sowed the seeds in their hearts to launch out into pioneering, planting, and establishing a church at a place where there was not much of Christian witness. The south of Bangalore which was growing rapidly with lots of IT development was surveyed and found to be a great challenge and need of a church at BTM Layout and its surrounding areas was impressed on us.
Launching Out
The seed sown in our heart became reality in the month of May, in the year 2001 when we moved out to BTM Layout. we began to meet new families, establish new contacts and build relationship by visiting and praying along with them. Initially, Sunday evening meetings were started at our residence which lead to Friday night cottage meetings. In the year 2002 end of June, we held our first Sunday Morning Worship Service with seven faithful people. From our home, we moved to the Canaan Public School and from there to a small place at 8th main. At present we have rented out a hall at BTM 1st Stage where we are able to carry out the ministries of the Church.
Background
We belong to the Protestant Church, which is inter-denominational. People from all denominations are welcome.
