The late Michael Jackson had a statement he would say when fans spoke of their love toward him. Jackson would reply, “I love you more.” And if we think seriously about the power of that statement, we can see just how awesome it is.
For men to return more love than they experience, is what the writer in 1 John 4:7-12 had in mind. For the scripture said: “Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.” Jesus also said, “this is my commandment that ye love one another as I have loved you, no greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.’ (John 15:12-13). So let us, “love others more” (Matthew 5:46-48; John 3:16). Hope to hear from you or see you at the services. I want you to do your own investigation of scripture, and I want you to allow it to speak to you and tell you what is said. Don’t try to make the scripture fit your thoughts, but rather change your views so you will become as what is taught (1 Timothy 6:16).
Matthew 19:4-5: “Have you not read, that He which made them at the beginning, made them male and female. For this cause shall man leave father and mother and cleave to his wife. What God has joined together, let not man put asunder.” My questions are:
Send us your reply along with your contact information, so we can talk. Hope to hear from you or see you at the services. Jesus Christ, the Apostles and some Christians, had miraculous powers by which they healed sickness and injuries. They picked up snakes, struck men dead or blind, cast out demons, and healed with handkerchiefs and their shadows (Matthew 8:1-17, 9:1-35, 12:9-13, 14:15-36, 15:21-39; Mark 16:17-18; Acts 2:43-44, 3:1-16, 4:7-22, 5:1-16, 6:8, 7:55-56, 8:5-25, 9:6-43, 13:9-12, 14:8-12, 16:16-18, 19:11-12, 20:9-12, 28:1-10). Ever wonder why you don’t see this from people who claim to have the power of the Holy Spirit today? Ever wonder why these people never go in a hospital to heal or a graveyard to raise the dead? Ever wonder why neighbors who live next door to such people don’t even know they claim Holy Spirit power?
And that’s because these lying people know they can’t heal (Revelation 2:2). That’s right! They can’t heal a broken hair on a dog’s tail! If a person has the power of the Holy Spirit, he will be busy using that power and everyone would know about it. People suffering from gunshot wounds, car accidents, stabbing, etc, would all be healed (1 Corinthians 2:4). So beware! Hope to hear from you or see you at the services. |
