If we have not love, we have not anything.
If what we do is not out of love,
then what we do has little significance.
Love is the greatest- I Corinthians 13:13.
And if I don't give you a bunch of scriptures on love,
we have read and heard enough teaching or preaching
on love, to know loving others and loving God is what
we have been commanded to do.
In order to love Godly or like God,
we first need God in our lives.
We need God ruling and reigning in our lives,
and we need Him to be a priority in our life.
God is love, love is God.
And we can't have the love of God or love like
God wants us to, apart from Him, or not having
Him in our lives.
Racism, bigotry, hatred, injustices and prejudices of every kind
will always be sin and evident in it's many forms as long as there are people.
As people of God, we must hold to the truth based on the word of God
and walk in love and according to the word of God.
The word of God clearly tells us that if we say that we love God and hate our brother,
that we are a liar. - I John 4:20.
Jesus goes on to say in John 13:35, that it is by love that all men will know
that we are His disciples, if we have love one for another.
Love is what love does.
We can say we love God and do a bunch of God works or ministry.
But the proof of our love and our heart is how we treat,
communicate and relate to one another,
regardless of who people are, and what their status or condition may be.
We are commanded to love God with all our heart,
mind soul and strength. -Deuteronomy 6:5
We are commanded to: Love our enemies. - Matthew 5:44
To love one another. - John 13:35
To love our neighbor as our selves. - Matthew 22:39
To let brotherly love continue. - Hebrews 13:1
I Corinthians chapter 13 gives us a clear desciption on love.
Beloved let us love God as He loves us.
Love is the flfilling of the law.
Love is the greatest thing that God gave us through His son Jesus Christ.
Love is the greatest thing that we can give back to God,
through loving one another as He loves us and in loving Him,
His way, His terms, unconditionally.
Christ's Servant & Friend,
Apostle Dr. Melody Barclay
