V. 1 - " ..... but 'try' the spirits whether they are of God .... "; It took me years to understand the meaning of this. How does one 'try' someone's spirit? By the word of God, check what they've told you about scripture to see if it's in the Bible - Jn. 5:39; Acts 17:11. We are to do this with pastors also. A TRUE pastor will encourage you to check what he tells you.
Jesus is the only one that will be sitting at the right hand of the Father.He is speaking to those who hold that men cannot live victorious over the world, flesh,and the devil.Ref. James 4:4 is speaking of some of this.He definitely wasn't speaking of Himself.As you live so are you in this world.You need to study the chpt. 4:11-17
I love that verse he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. God has really started working in my life in the past few months and I have been in the midst of a major trial and I cry and worry and have fear but He showed me that I don't have to fear or worry anymore because He is my Father and will take care of me. Praise Holy God!
Verse 19 shows that God took the initiative in showing love by giving the life of Jesus in our behalf. Love does not originate with men and our love for God is really in response to His love for us.
First we need to accept Jesus Christ in our life and love him trust him with all our heart. BELIEVE THAT JESUS CHRIST IS THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD. I WILL PRAISE HIM AND THANKED HIS BLOOD FOREVER. GOD HIMSELF WILL EMPART HIS LOVE AND FAITH TO US COZ THIS THE GIFT TO THOSE WHO DILIGENTLY SEEKING HIM. IF WE LOVE GOD AND OBEY HIS WORDS THEN WE CAN OVERCOME THE FEAR AND TURN INTO PERFECT LOVE. AMEN
Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.
Our Heavenly Abba Dad and God Almighty Yahwehs Holy Word is simply to understand if you let the Word itself speak to you. We must all come back to the integrity of the Holy Word in and of itself in which men a.k.a religion have done to it. Apocalypse/Apokalypsis- Things that are hidden secret/reveal/disclosure. Restoration is come. Glory to God through Christ our Blessed Lord Amen and Amen.
Christ Yeshua Jesus had Truly come in the flesh, died on the cross, buried, God raised Him up from the dead on the third day and He walked the earth for forty days and rose up unto Heaven, Glorfied and seated at Abba Dad Gods Right Hand and Lives, Reigns and maketh intersession for all His Holy Saints until all is fulfilled in this end of the age of the gentiles, unto the Gathering up Glory to God
Love is a character of God, whoever is born of God will show their love towards others. For God's love covers multitudes of sin. For Gods' love is constant, He shows His great love both to the Spiritfilled and the unsaved people without Holy Spirit . Therefore who have been born of God must also so constant love towards our natural and spiritfilled bro and sisters. Amen to that and God Bless.
If we love one another as children of God then we know we have passed from death unto life. But if we say we know God and walk in darkness, we lie as children of darkness. There is a difference between the holy and the profane. God is not mocked.
Amen Sister Bernadette we should All have and share that unconditional love and compassion that Christ shares with us day in and day out. We should be thankful and great full to be able to serve Him. May the Father continue to bless and keep us as we strive to please Him.
It is a blessing to feel that way, however, it is sad because I do see a lot, because I want to receive love from others the same way I share it with others
I think that we are fortunate that a King died for us on Calvary's cross because of his love for us, not our love for him but his for us. So we aught to have that unconditional love for our fellowman because if we do not love our brother we cannot love God. I thank God for His Perfect Love. Also we should shine a light so that men may see and glorify God.
If I have a love for the people that are not in with God's people , then there is something wrong with me. I that is born of God will love God's people for I am one of them. Sometimes it is hard to love one of my own , BUT that is when I am to express God's love more. As with my own natural bor. sis. It is sometimes hard to love them to. BUT if I want a fellowship with my heavenly Father then I will love both my natural and spiritual brothers and sisters. My love in this way shows a reflection of my love for God and my Lord Jesus Christ !!!! Let us love one another !!
We had been made clear by our Father that we are God's children and our God is Love so,every single day when we wake up we must know that God love us so much and if we can understand that we will love anyone on planet earth.I give thanks for this wonderful Word from 1john4 in Jesus name Amen.
To say that if God's love dwells in you makes you God, is a dangerous fallacy. We have the ability to show others the unconditional love and forgiveness of God if we receive that love and recognise the free gift of love and eternal life in the sacrifice of His Son our Lord Jesus, the Christ. It is our duty to love as He first loved us. This does not elevate us to divinity.
I think that this verse speaks for itself......unconditional love is what it not only says but speaks too my spirit....for when you give all and the only thing or person that you have to make such an impact on the WORLD it speaks volumes. ..I'm truly GRATEFUL for that scarfice.
