Unwilling

God loves us and He cares for us and it is not His will that anyone of us should perish but that all would repent of sin and wickedness and obey Him. God loved us so much that He came in the form of a man, Jesus Christ, to redeem us, to set us free, to call us unto Him so that we can become children of God and be united with Him but people do not want Jesus Christ, they do not want God. They are UNWILLING. They are UNWILLING to part with their evil ways and they do not want to follow and obey Jesus.

Many people have Bibles, many people have heard the gospel of Jesus Christ but they are UNWILLING to follow Jesus. They are UNWILLING to submit to God and do His will and that is why they will perish in hell. It is not because God does not love them. It is because they love sin and wickedness more than God. They are UNWILLING.

Are YOU WILLING to follow Jesus Christ? Are you WILLING to go after Him every day? Are you WILLING to have life?

May Jesus bless you.

Too Many LOVERS Too Much L-O-V-E

A woman who has many lovers does not love any one of them, she only loves the pleasure of sin and that which she can benefit from them, that which she can have from them. She might say that she loves them but she doesn't, she loves herself, SHE IS A WHORE. That is how most Christians are. They say they love Jesus but they also love the world, they love the pleasures of the world and they GO AFTER THE PLEASURES of the world. They DO NOT LOVE JESUS – THEY LOVE PLEASURE! And they love SIN. That is why they never stop sinning.

They will never get to know Jesus because they are NOT INTERESTED in Him and that s why He will say to them one day:”Go away I never knew you, you workers of wickedness,” because when you go after sin and the pleasures of the flesh then you compromise yourself, and you are unfaithful, YOU ARE A WHORE, and you are unsuitable for the kingdom of heaven.

Do you REALLY love Jesus or do you have many lovers, do you love many things? And then you say that you also love Jesus? You cannot serve God and mammon, you will either love the one and despise the other! Whom do you love? Who are you really interested in? Who are you chasing after? Are you going after Jesus and do you seek to please Him? Or do you seek to please yourself?

May Jesus bless you.

Drawn and Compelled by LOVE

If we are truly born again and we love Jesus Christ then we GO AFTER HIM with all our power. Our mind is constantly focused on Him. We seek to be pleasing to Him, we seek Him in prayer, our mind is fixed on Him and His Spirit permeates us, and His Spirit that indwells us prompts us, compels us to DO that which is pleasing to Him.

He does not force us but we SEEK to be pleasing to Him. We seek to be righteous and holy according to His standard because we want to be pleasing to Him. Without Jesus we can do nothing, If we are not constantly driven, compelled by a desire to please Jesus Christ in everything that we do then we are driven by selfish desires. Without Jesus we can do nothing, we have to be PROMPTED, COMPELLED by our love for Him. Our focus must always be on Him, then nothing will be impossible, then doing His will becomes our pleasure and His Spirit that fills us, that indwells us, ENABLES us to do that which is pleasing to Him.

Are you led by the Spirit of Christ because you are focused on Him all the time? Do you truly want to be pleasing to Jesus? Is He really your Lord and Master? Do you love Him that much that you always want to be pleasing to Him? If not, then you do not really love Jesus, then you are not really born again. Without Jesus we can do nothing, it is all about Him and being pleasing to Him.

May Jesus bless you.

Grace and Love

It does not matter what sins you have committed in your past. When you come to Jesus with a repentant heart, He gives you a new beginning, He wipes your slate and you start fresh. But then you have to turn away from sin, you have to obey Jesus Christ and FOLLOW Him, OBEY His words, be baptized in water for the washing off of your sins and then follow after Jesus every day of your life until the very end.

By His love and His mercy He grants us pardon and forgiveness. We must demonstrate our love for Him by OBEYING Him. Jesus said:”If you love Me you will keep My commandments.” If we love Him we will follow Him and go after Him every day of out lives until the very end. If we turn our back on Him we have despised His grace. We prove our love for Him by OBEYING Him. For those who truly love nothing is too much trouble and for those who follow Jesus Christ nothing is too big a sacrifice, nothing is too much trouble. Nothing is impossible because they love Him.

If we appreciate the grace that Jesus extended to us then we will STOP SINNING, we will OBEY Him and follow Him wherever He guides us and DO what ever He tells us to do, because we love Him. Do you truly LOVE Jesus Christ and are you following Him every day of your life?

May Jesus bless you.  

Calling the lost sheep

There is only one true and real good Shepherd who cares for each and every one of us, who has been with us from the beginning and that is Jesus Christ who made us. We were created by Him for Him and through Him because nothing that exists came in existence without Him. We have been aware of His presence with us since we can remember ourselves but we have all strayed like sheep, we have looked to other people and to ourselves and we have ignored His soft voice inside of us, calling us, speaking to us, coaching us. We have all run after other shepherd looked for our direction and inspiration from others but Jesus Christ is calling us to come to Him, to seek Him, to obey Him. He wrote His laws in our hearts, we know what is right and we know what is wrong, from the beginning, but we have often ignored that voice. He is real. That is the voice of God speaking inside of us and Jesus wants us to invite Him in. He wants us to turn away from wickedness, from running after our own ways and from running after other people, seeking comfort, hope and guidance from others and to come to Him because He alone is the good Shepherd. Jesus is calling you and me right now, He has never stopped. He has always been drawing us. Stop ignoring Him, open the door of your heart and invite Jesus in. Go on your knees and repent of your sin. Cry out for mercy, seek Him with all your heart and He will come in and He will give you peace and joy like you have never experienced. Seek Him with all your heart and He will reveal Himself to you and become more and more real to you every day. There is only one Good Shepherd and that is Jesus Christ. May Jesus bless you.

Proving your love

Many believers say that they love Jesus, they call themselves Christians, but, how do we prove it? We have to prove our love for Jesus or else it is not real. Jesus Christ, the Creator of everything, by Whom and for Whom and through Whom everything was created proved His love for us by laying down His glory, taking on the form of a human like we are and dying on a cross for our sins so that if we prove our love for Him by obeying Him then we can have eternal life. Jesus Christ proved His love for us through His sacrifice on Calvary to save us. We need to prove our love for Him by denying ourselves, dying to our own selfish desires and ambitions and living our lives in obedience to Him to please Him, in close relationship with Him because we love Him. Its not about religion, its not about church, its not about reading the Bible, its not about the things that you give up. It is about whether you love Jesus. Are we proving through our obedience to Jesus Christ that we love Him. Do we testify of Him? Have we become like Him because we adore and follow Him? Is Jesus Christ our life? Are we always praying and seeking His approval? Do we want to be close to Him, hear His voice? Are we proving by our deeds that we truly love Jesus Christ or are we just deceiving ourselves? Do our deeds show that we truly love Jesus? Jesus said:”If you love Me, keep my commandments.” He said:”Why do you call Me Lord, Lord and you do not what I say?” Are we doing what Jesus is telling us to do? Do we truly love Him? May Jesus bless you.

You have a Father!

You have a Father who cares about you. He has prepared many mansions in heaven for those who love Him, but the thing that separates us from God, our Father, is sin. And He loved you so much that He sent Jesus to come and die on a cross to pay the price for your sin so that you can have eternal life, so that you can spend eternity with the Father in heaven in a wonderful mansion, indescribable. That is how much He loves you. But if you want to go and live in that house, if you want to be with Father then you must turn away from sin because it is sin that separates us from the heavenly Father and you must accept Jesus as your Lord, because He paid the price for YOU and for me.

If you invite Jesus into your heart He will forgive your past sins and then you must live your life to please Him, to please Father so that you can go and live in His holy mansion. Jesus is standing at the door of your heart and He is knocking and He wants to come in to give you peace and joy but YOU NEED TO INVITE HIM IN. You need to ask Him to come in and He will come in and He will give you a peace that passes all understanding, indescribable, because Jesus said that if we accept Him and we love Him then He, Him and the Father will come and live with us and He will reveal Himself to us as real.

YOU CAN EXPERIENCE THE FATHER'S LOVE RIGHT NOW. If you go on your knees and you invite Jesus into your heart and you say:”Lord. I am tired, I am tired of this life. I am tired of all the troubles, of the rejection, of the pain, of the hatred, the insecurity! I need security, I need a house, I need hope. Please give me hope!” Open your heart and invite Jesus in and He will give you peace beyond understanding. Then you need to keep that house, your body, you need to keep that clean so that Jesus can come and live there, because we are a temple of the Holy Spirit.

He will give you peace beyond all understanding, but you need to invite Him in. He will bring you into the Father's house so that you can live there for ever. He is waiting for you to call on Him. Just say:”Jesus! I need you Lord, HELP ME!” and He will come in and He will have meal time with you. He will fill you up with His joy and with His peace. Dear friend, Jesus is waiting for you to just call out to Him and say:”Lord, I am coming home1 I want to come home! I want to come to the Father's house” Father is waiting for you, dear friend. Just go on your knees and call out to Him, submit your life to Jesus and He will give you peace that passes all understanding.

May Jesus bless you.

Show your love

Most believers do not have a real relationship with Jesus. They say they love Jesus, maybe they go to church, and the go to praise and worship but they don't hear from Jesus. They don't get revelation, they don't get confirmation from Him that He is pleased with them. It is a one sided relationship. If your relationship with Jesus is not right then it is maybe because YOU are not obeying Him. It is because you have not stopped sinning, it is because you are not working on your relationship with Jesus.

How do we prove our love for Jesus? Jesus was very clear. John 15:14 “You are My friends if you DO what I command you.” A lot of people have not repented, they have not been baptized in water, they are not obedient to Jesus and that is the reason why they are not receiving revelation. They don't love Jesus, they love themselves. They are busy with a self made religion that serves themselves, not Jesus. They don't love Jesus, they love themselves.

Jesus said (John 14:21) “He who has My commandments (His instructions, the words that He gave us) and keeps them, He it is who loves Me; and he who loves Me shall be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will I disclose Myself to him.” If you are not receiving revelation from Jesus, if He is not revealing Himself to you and you don't get confirmation from Him that He is pleased with you, it is because your relationship is not right, you are not obeying Him, you are not seeking to please Him. (John 14:23) “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with him. 24“He who does not love Me does not keep My words;”

If you want to feel the presence of God, If you want to have the power of God in your life, START OBEYING HIM! Start doing what Jesus commanded us to do. His words are written in the gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, OBEY THEM! His words are also written in your heart, OBEY THEM! Seek Jesus in prayer and LISTEN to Him. Take time to listen and He will guide you by His Spirit. Obey Him and He will give you the Holy Spirit who will guide you into all truth and then you have a real relationship, but unless you turn away from sin and SEEK to be pleasing to Jesus you have no relationship and you don't really love Jesus. You lust love yourself.

How real is your relationship with Jesus? Do you really love Him, does it come from the heart? Do you spend time waiting on Him and then DO what He tells you to do? Are you REALLY following Jesus?

May Jesus bless you.

Share Each Other's Burdens

Jesus said that His disciples will be known because of the love that they have for each other, that they care for each other.  Paul also wrote to the Galatians in Galatians 6:2 He said: “Bear one another's burdens, and thus fulfill the law of Christ.” Being part of the Body of Christ means that we are not alone.  We have brothers and sisters that we need to care for and that care for us also.  But very often we do not share our burdens with other people and they don’t know about our burdens.  Very often you want to help but you don’t know who needs help. Other people want to help and they don’t know who to help.  They are looking around and saying:"Who is there who has need?" and in the meanwhile, you have a need but you are not sharing it with your brothers and sisters.  How can they know about your need? How can they help you? Very often we do the same with Jesus.  Many people sit in a corner and they say:"I have this problem and God does not care for me."  But they don’t take their burden to Jesus in prayer, say:"Lord, I have this problem, please help me" and then they say:"Nobody cares for me!  God does not care for me," and then they get all full of self pity, instead of sharing their burden with other people, who are willing to carry.  We must be willing to share our burden with others and also be willing to bear the burdens of others. In that way the burden becomes lighter and we can overcome.  We do not receive because we do not ask.  Let us share each other’s burdens and bear each other’s burdens and so proof to be children of God.
May Jesus bless you.

LOVE DESTROYS SATAN

Love is obedience to Jesus Christ. Jesus gave us a new commandment, that we love each other. If we obey Jesus then we destroy the works of satan and we build the Kingdom of God. Jesus said:”Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.” He didn't tell us to kill our enemies. He didn't tell us to expose people, to start “holy wars” against people. He told us to LOVE each other, fervently, because then the power of God works in and through us to destroy the works of the devil, but if we disobey Jesus and we start gossiping and slandering then we become an instrument in the hand of the devil and then he channels his filthy work through us.

We must not allow the devil a foothold. We must not allow satan to use us to do his dirty work. We must obey Jesus Christ and LOVE. We must not curse people, we must bless them! That is what Jesus commanded, and then the love of Christ works through us, and when we obey Jesus, then the love that is in us, that drives out fear.

When our love has become perfect, then the power of God works through us to BUILD THE KINGDOM OF GOD. We must not allow the devil any foothold, not in any thought, not in any conversation. We must rebuke the devil and exercise the love of Jesus Christ through us. Let us shine the love of Jesus Christ through us, through our obedience to Jesus, and we will build the Kingdom of God and not break it down.

May Jesus bless you.

The Power of Love

LOVE is the most powerful force in the universe. GOD IS LOVE. God loved us so much that He sent Jesus to come and die on a Cross to REDEEM us  so that we can become sons of God if we OBEY JESUS.  JESUS LOVED the FATHER so much that HE OBEYED the FATHER to the point of DEATH to redeem us.  PERFECT LOVE drives out FEAR, it is greater than fear.  When Jesus stood before Pontius Pilate, HE did NOT FEAR at all, because He was there DOING THE WILL OF THE FATHER.  If we LOVE JESUS then we TRUST HIM and we KNOW that NOTHING can happen to us that He does not allow.  We TRUST HIM with all our heart because we DECIDE to TRUST HIM.  LOVE is NOT a FEELING.  LOVE is OBEDIENCE at ALL COST.
UNBELIEF is SIN if we DISBELIEF and we are ANXIOUS that is SIN in us and we need to REPENT of that so that we can LOVE and that the LOVE OF GOD can flow through us.  I read from John 16:7 “For if I do not go away, the Helper shall not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you and He And He, when He comes, will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment; concerning SIN, because they DID NOT BELIEVE IN ME.” Distrusting Jesus, NOT BELIEVING JESUS is SIN and we need to REPENT of it.  If we REPENT of FEAR and of DISTRUSTING JESUS then the POWER OF GOD works in us.  The LOVE OF GOD then works in us and we DESTROY the works of the devil.  The devil cannot stand against LOVE.  It is our LOVE FOR JESUS that will force us to OBEY HIM, to NOT SIN at all but to UTTERLY OBEY HIM. It is our LOVE FOR JESUS that will cause us to follow Him every step of the way until the very end without wavering at all.  Do you LOVE JESUS that much that you will follow Him right until the end without wavering?
May Jesus bless you.

Jesus is calling you

Jesus is calling you from a senseless existence to a life with expectation, eternal life with Him for eternity.  If you live long enough you will learn that everything that you have been working for, striving for, running after in life all turns to naught, to nothing, and in the end you have chasing after wind.  Jesus wants to give you purpose, an eternal purpose, that you do not just disappear, end up in the end of your life and have no expectation, just wasted, just regrets for the things that you have been done wrong and the things that you could have done better.  Dear friend, Jesus loved us so much that He paid the price that we can have eternal life.  And He loves you so much that He is calling you to a life of purpose but you must turn away from your senseless existence and become obedient to Him.  If you respond to the call and go on your knees and cry out to Jesus, He will reveal Himself to you.  If you repent, turn away from sin, wickedness, He will forgive your past sins and He will give you a clean slate, He will make you new inside, give you an expectation and He will give you His Spirit to be with you, to guide you every step of the way. to show you what is pleasing to Him, to reveal HIM to you, HIS WILL, HIS KINGDOM, your future, if you stay with Him.
Dear friend, many are called but few respond to the call. Do you want eternal life, do you want to have purpose in life?  Then go on your knees and cry out to Jesus , ask Him to come into your life, to reveal Himself to you and you will find out that Jesus is real. He will give you a peace and a joy and an expectation that you cannot explain but that you have never had. Jesus will give you LIFE, if you just call on Him.  Do you want life my friend?  You want real joy and peace then call out to Jesus.  He is the only One who can give you LIFE and life in abundance.
May Jesus bless you.

The ONE who truly loves YOU

God, who gave us life, loves us so much that He wants to give us eternal life, so that we can live for ever. But He is a holy God and no sin can come into His presence. The wages of sin is death, dear friend. Sin separates us from God, but God loved us so much that He sent Jesus to die in our place, so that IF we TURN AWAY FROM SIN and accept Jesus as our Lord and our Master, then we can have eternal life! We can be restored to the presence of God. We can LIVE FOR EVER! BUT WE MUST MAKE A CHOICE to want to be with this God who loves us so much. We must turn away from sin and pleasing ourselves and we must OBEY Jesus Christ, because Jesus came and He delivered the Words of God, the words by which we must live, if we want to have eternal life.

The words of Jesus are LIFE, are eternal life TO THOSE WO OBEY THEM. Jesus will forgive your past sins, IF you come to Him, and if you then obey Him, until you die, you will have eternal life. You will be brought into the presence of God, who loved you so much, and who still loves you so much. But, dear friend, IF YOU DO NOT TURN, YOU WILL BURN because sin cannot come into His presence. You must be holy, clean, pure, to be pleasing to Him. The choice is ours, friend. If you want to be with the ONE who loved you so much and still loves you, THEN YOU MUST TURN, you must accept Jesus Christ, Who paid that sacrifice for redeeming you and me, so that we can have eternal life. We must OBEY Him, obey His words. They are written in the gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, the words that He spoke – those are the words of life. If we OBEY those words and if we get to know Jesus for real then we will have eternal life.

Do you want life? Do you want eternal life? The choice is yours friend – OBEY JESUS.

May Jesus bless you.

Without love NO SALVATION

If you do not love Jesus then you will not enter heaven. Many people think they have salvation because they believed in Jesus. Dear friend, only those who love Him will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus said: If you love Me, obey My words. You cannot enter heaven by being holy, by being religious, by knowing the Bible, quoting scriptures, by doing charities, by going to church, by going to worship. If you do not LOVE JESUS, TRULY LOVE HIM, He knows it and you cannot fool Him. Many believers love their TV, they love their holidays, they love their comfort, they love themselves and they think they are saved but THEY DON'T LOVE JESUS.

Dear friends, we cannot fool Jesus, He knows us, He knows the motive of my heart. He knows why I do what I do! We cannot fool Him, and if you don't love Jesus there is no way that you will enter heaven. There is no way that you will stop sinning. There is no way that you will overcome the evil. You first need to love Jesus. You need to fall in love with Him, above all things.

Dear friend, without love all your religion is fake, it is useless! If you don't love Jesus and not DO what He commanded us to do, if you are not seeking to please Him all the time, YOU DON'T LOVE HIM AND YOU DON'T HAVE SALVATION, YOU DON'T HAVE JESUS! You cannot fool Him!

Do you love Jesus, my friend?

May Jesus bless you.

Perfect Love Drives Out Fear

The reason that people live in fear is because they are not in right standing with God and they are not obedient to Jesus Christ. I read the words of the apostle John in 1 John 4:16 (NAS)
“God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him. 17By this, love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment; because as He is, so also are we in this world. 18There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love. 19We love, because He first loved us. 20If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen.21And this commandment we have from Him, that the one who loves God should love his brother also.”
Dear friends, we demonstrate that we love God when we OBEY Him and that is why Jesus said, I read His words in John 14:15.
“If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.”
If you love Jesus, you will OBEY Him and then there is no reason for fear, not now and not in the judgment day, because if we obey Jesus, if we do what is pleasing to Him, then we have confidence to come to Him and to pray, whatever our problem is. We can come to Him and we can pray BUT IF WE ARE IN DISOBEDIENCE THEN WE ARE SEPARATED FROM GOD. If we are living in sin, we have got reason to fear! But if we truly love Jesus, we REPENT of sin, we turn away from sin and we obey Jesus, we seek Him with all our heart and then He promises us that He will draw closer to us. We read in John 14:21. (NAS)
"He who has My commandments and KEEPS THEM them is the one who loves Me; and he who loves Me shall be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will disclose Myself to him."
“I will reveal Myself to Him” If we have the words of Jesus, His commandments, and we obey them, then we demonstrate we love Him and then Him and His Father will come and live with us and He will reveal Himself to us. He will give us His Holy Spirit and He will guide us by His Spirit. We come into close communion with Him, we walk with God and then we have got no fear, because we are in a close relationship with the God of the universe.
Dear friend, do you have fear or are you close to Jesus? Is your relationship with Him close? Are you obeying Him? Because if you always do what is pleasing to Him, then you have no reason to fear. When we obey Jesus, our love has become perfect and then that perfect love drives out all fear.
Has your love for Jesus become perfect? Are you living in UTTER obedience to Jesus Christ?

May Jesus bless you.

Show your love

The love of God was demonstrated in Jesus Christ who came and died on a Cross and took the punishment for our sins and our transgressions on Him, so that we can have eternal life, if we obey Him, if we turn away from sin and accept Him as our Lord. Jesus said:” If you love Me, do what I say.” “ Why do you call Me, Lord, Lord and do not what I say.” We demonstrate our love for Him, through our obedience to Him. He gave us a new commandment. He said:” A new commandment I give unto you that you LOVE one another as I have also loved you.” Jesus loved this world so much that He gave Himself, He died, He sacrificed Himself for us, so that we can live. If we have the Love of Christ in us, we will sacrifice ourselves for our brothers and our sisters. We will be more concerned about other people than about ourselves. God loves us friends and if Jesus lives in us, we will also demonstrate that very same love for our neighbors, for our brothers, for our sisters. God makes His sun shine on everybody everyday. If Jesus is in us, we will love everybody, even those who are enemies, even those who hate us, even those who persecute us because if the love of Christ is poured out in our hearts we will also have love to give. Do we have the Love of Christ in us? Is it demonstrated in our deeds and our actions towards our neighbors. May Jesus bless you.

Why God allows good people to suffer

The question is often asked: Why do good people often suffer, cancer, tribulation, serious problems? Dear friends, God is good and He is good to everybody. It is not His will that anybody perish and God knows how to deal with us. He wants us to share in His glory, to be part of His Kingdom and the only way that God can often speak to us is through suffering, through a terminal illness, through economic suffering. It is because God cares. Many serious followers of Jesus Christ also suffer because He teaches us through suffering. Even Jesus Christ Himself our Lord was perfected through suffering. We need to be cleansed and purified. God cares for everybody, everybody, even those who don’t believe. God cares for them and He often lays problems, stumbling blocks in their way, problems that are too big for them to handle so that they can look up and start calling out to Him. It is all because He cares. He is drawing us closer to Him. When things go well, we forget God, we don’t need God. It is better for us to suffer and to draw nearer to Jesus to learn the truth to repent of our wickedness to become holy and pleasing to Him than for us to carry on and have a good time and end up in hell. Dear friends, severe times are coming over this world. Economic collapse is coming and many people will suffer severe hardship. It is because God cares. This world has turned its back on God. Even professing Christians have turned their back on God. They are denying Him, but He has not turned His back on us. He cares for us and that is why all these things will happen. There will be famine, there will be economic collapse, there will be hardship and these times that are coming, people will call out to God and many will find Him. Many will find Jesus, many will be saved, many will curse God and die. Dear friend, what will you do? Will you respond to the call of a Loving Father? Will you obey Him and follow Jesus Christ? Will you repent of your sin and seek eternal salvation or will you keep on turning your back on Him? God cares for you friend, He loves you, He has not forsaken you. Bow your knees before Jesus, before it is too late. Do not reject Him. Open your heart to Him and invite Him in. Come clean, repent of your sin and seek Jesus and He will accept you. He loves you my friend and He cares for you. The sufferings that you are going through is because God cares for you. Maybe it is a loved one who is sick and it is hurting you. Maybe that is the only way God can get through to you, is by making your loved one suffer, but God cares for you. He is drawing us closer to Him. Will you respond to the call? Will you seek Jesus and live or will you reject Him and perish for all eternity? God cares my friend. Come to Jesus and live. May Jesus bless you.

The Price of Love

Love is not a feeling or about something that you like. It is about what you want to achieve. If you want to be a champion marathon runner, then it is the achievement that you are after but there is a very tough price to pay for that. You’ve got to practice, you’ve got to punish your body, you’ve got to abstain from certain foods. There is a price to be paid. For every pleasure in live there is a price to be paid. If you want to be a pilot, you must go to ground school, it will cost you a lot of money, you will need to go through all the training. And if you endure, and very few do, if you endure, you get your wings, you go solo. Very few pilots go solo. If you want to be a wrestler or a boxer or anything if you want six pack abs, if you want to be a muscle man, the exercise, the training, is not nice, it is tough, but you are after the result . Dear friends, if we want eternal life then we must obey Jesus Christ, then we must stop sinning and do what He commands us to do. Jesus loved us so much that He paid the price. It was not pleasure for Him to come to this earth, to leave His glory, to take on the form of a Servant, to walk the dust streets, to be rejected, to be hated, to be persecuted and eventually to be crucified by His own whom He loved. He cared so much for them, that He came to redeem them, to pay the price for their sins. The wages of sin is death my friend. You and I deserve death. Jesus took the pain, He paid the price and He is offering us eternal life with Him AT A PRICE. And that price is OBEDIENCE TO HIM. He gives us eternal life for free, if we accept Him as Lord but there is a condition to it. He said: If you love Me, obey Me. He died for us, so we must die to ourselves and our sinful desires and live a life to please Him. And thereby we prove that we love Him. Is it nice to follow Jesus? NO, certainly not. Is it nice to be persecuted because of the Name of Jesus? Certainly not. Sin has its pleasures but sin has its rewards, if we keep on sinning, then the wages of sin is death. We need to live holy and obey Jesus, if we love Him. If we love the end result which is eternal life with Jesus Christ in His Kingdom. Dear friend, do you love Jesus or do you love sin? It all depends on where you want to end up. Jesus loved us so much that He paid the price. Do we love Him so much that we will pay the price and obey Him so that we can spend eternity with Him in Heaven. May Jesus bless you.

What it means to LOVE - love is NOT a feeling

Transcript to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OluVhG9mQ4A

Love is not a feeling. It is not about liking somebody or something. Love is what you do, because you care for somebody else. God loved this world so much that He sent Jesus to die in our place. That is love. That was a sacrifice. Jesus loved us so much, He cared for us so much, that He obeyed God the Father and He suffered and died in our place for our sin because He loved us. If we LOVE JESUS we WILL OBEY HIM. It is not about liking, it is about action. Jesus said: If you love Me, DO what I command. Dear friend, it is not about feeling. There is no reason why God should love me? There is no reason why God should love this world, that HATES HIM, that DESPISES HIM, that SPITS IN HIS FACE, that DENY HIM. People want Jesus to show His love to them. He has already done it dear friend, He loves you, HE DIED for you. But now HE IS ALIVE. And if you don’t LIVE for Him and OBEY HIM you have no part in Him. There is no reason why you should spend eternity in His Heaven with Him. To love is a DECISION it is not a feeling. Because you CARE for somebody, you watch out for them. You do things for them and it is not because you like them it is because you CARE for them. God cared for us that much, that He did not ABANDON us. This world DESERVES to be DEMOLISHED. The people that God created, that HATE HIM so much, deserve to be DESTROYED because they HATE HIM. They destroy His planet, they destroy each other, they WAR, they WHORE, they KILL each other, they ABORT their own babies, they live in utter immorality. They don’t love God, they love their LUSTS and they HATE each other, they EXPLOIT each other. Love is not what you can get OUT of it. Love is acting because you CARE. Dear friend, if you do not LOVE JESUS and OBEY HIS WORDS, there is no way that you will enter into Heaven. Do you love Jesus? It is a DECISION to OBEY JESUS it is not easy. It is not easy to love YOU and ME, but God loves us. It is not easy to love God. It is not easy to obey Jesus, but if you don’t obey, you won’t have eternal life. Love comes at a price and if you don’t PAY the PRICE then you cannot have the reward. The reward is ETERNAL LIFE for those who LOVE JESUS and demonstrate their love through OBEDIENCE to HIM. May Jesus bless you.
