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.
