Three studies on man, God, worship and how God loves us, his bride's maid. God courts us the way a man courts his soon to be wife.
Love is eternal and God's love for man is an Ancient love that refuses to leave or end. My hope is that I, my listeners may grow to accept reciprocating the love God back to Him and spread that love to others, family, friends and strangers. Love is believing Jesus paid the price for your sins resulting in your forgiveness. Love is receiving the free gift of forgiveness of your sins called salvation, saved. Love is living a life with all your being for the glory of God. The things that defile and glorifies God is written in Galatians 5:19-26 KJV Public Domain, www.biblegateway.com ,
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
In this world we see righteousness as seeking justice, seeking to spread joy, cheer, peace, hope in your personal life and professional life. This is loving God with all your heart, with all your mind and with all your strength. Mark 12:29-31,
29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.
31 And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
Love God with all your heart mind soul and strength. Love your brethren as Jesus loves the Church is reminding one another of the testimony of Jesus. It is building one another up and not tearing down. It is being a blessing and not a curse. John 13:34-35, KJV , www.biblegateway.com,
34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
