Love of God...what is it...

What is love of God…

And this is love, that we should walk after His (God’s) commandments. This is the commandment, even as ye heard from the beginning, that ye should walk in it (love). For many deceivers are gone forth into the world, even they that confess not that Jesus Christ cometh in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist...2 John 1:6-7. And he (Jesus) said unto them, Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honor me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me. But in vain do they worship me, Teaching as their doctrines the precepts of men. You leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men...Mark 7:6-8. Beloved, believe not every spirit, but prove the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: every spirit that confess that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God (died and resurrected from the dead) : and every spirit that confess not Jesus is not of God: and this is the spirit of the antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it cometh; and now it is in the world already...1 John 4:1-3.

 

It is a Who not a what as to the source of love…

God is the source of Love for He created all things. How do we reciprocate or respond properly to love by keeping His commandments we show our love for God. We tell the truth…we do not steal…we do not commit adultery…we do not want what God has not given us…we do not murder…we respect our dads and moms…we keep ourselves Holy so we can approach God and worship Him in Spirit and Truth…we do not worship the created…we do not use God’s name except in prayer and teaching…and we have no other God but our Creator and His only Fathered Son Jesus…this is how we show love for God by keeping His commandments. For it is written… In the beginning was the Word (Jesus), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him; and without him was not anything made that hath been made...John 1:1-3. Jesus is the Creator of all things made and became a man born of a virgin named Mary. Jesus never violated or broke one of the Ten Commandments and remained sinless His whole life…then offered His life as a ransom or sacrifice for all those who have broken any or all the Ten Commandments. So that if you obey Jesus teaching you can be forgiven…of any sin.

 

Jesus said…He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieves shall be condemned...Mark 16:16.

 

Prayer

Father please forgive us for not loving You with all our heart, mind, soul, spirit, and strength and meet our soul’s deepest needs for obedience to Your commandments by imparting the ability to keep them as a light unto our feet so we can walk in Your commandment as pure gold loving You more than ourselves…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Faith Check…how do you measure up?

Faith Check…

If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and His word is not in us...1 John 1:8-10. For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord...Romans 6:23. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in His body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences...2 Corinthians 5:10-11.


When is the last time you ran through the Ten Commandments to see if you meet a standard?

Have you received from another table other than God…You shall have no other God. Have you used God’s name in only prayer and teaching…you shall not take God’s name in vain. Have you worshipped the created…you shall not make any graven images. Have you kept yourself Holy so you can approach God without offering a sin sacrifice…you shall keep the Sabbath Day Holy. Have you respected and cared for your dad and mom…honor your dad and mom. Have you murdered…you shall not kill. Have you committed had sex or porn with another’s spouse…you shall not commit adultery. Have you stole…you shall not steal. Have you told a lie or half-truth…you shall not bear false witness. Have you wanted what God has not given you…you shall not covet. How do you measure up? If you have broken even one of these commandments then you deserve death for your behavior or separation from God…He does not tolerate or fellowship sin.


If you do not measure up then I have some good news for you called the Gospel of Jesus Christ…

Jesus never violated the Ten Commandments and met the minimum requirements of not breaking the Ten Commandments. Which for a Jew from the tribe of Judah is all He had to do to remain sinless. Jesus because He never broke one of the Ten Commandments was sinless and righteous before God. He sacrificed His sinless life for an eternal offering of sin so you and I who have broke the Ten Commandments in order for us to be forgiven. Jesus died on a cross and was raise from the dead so you and I could change and follow the truth and be forgiven. Do you believe Jesus died and was raised from the dead…yes or no?


Jesus said He that believes and is baptized will be saved but he that refuses to believe that Jesus is the only way to be forgiven in the eyes of God will be damned. Have you been baptized…yes or no? Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection...Romans 6:3-5. Will you be baptized into Christ’s death burial and resurrection…yes or no?


Prayer

Father please remember we are but sinners in need of a repentance and faith in Your Son Jesus and meet our soul’s deepest needs…please forgive us of our sinful pasts and help us start repenting before You…we renounce satan and sin…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Hear the good news of Jesus Christ…

Hear the good news of Jesus Christ…

For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved...John 3:16-17. All things are delivered unto Me of my Father: and no man knows the Son, but the Father; neither knows any man the Father, save the Son, and He to whomsoever the Son will reveal Him. Come unto Me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and you shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light...Matthew 11:27-30.

 

Hear the good news of Jesus Christ…

Jesus of Nazareth died and the cross and rose from the dead so that you and I could be forgiven and have eternal life with the Father. Jesus said no one comes to the father except through me…we can not reconcile with our Creator unless we obey Jesus Christ. Jesus died so you could choose truth over lies…right over wrong and all you have to do is believe He died on the cross and was raised from the dead and then be baptized to be saved.

 

Hear the good news of Jesus Christ…

Afterward (His resurrection) He appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen Him after He was risen. And He said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, He was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen....Mark 16:14-20.

 

Do you believe Jesus died on the cross and was raised from the dead…yes or no? Will you be baptized to be saved…yes or no? Have you been baptized to obey Jesus…yes or no? Will you ask Jesus to confirm these truths to you…yes or no?

 

Prayer

Father please confirm these truths to us and meet our deepest needs…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
