    This Is The Commandment.

    Hear O Israel: the LORD our God, the LORD is one. Thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. Deuteronomy 6:4-5.

    THIS IS THE COMMANDMENT. Deuteronomy 6:1-9. “This is the commandment” (Deuteronomy 6:1) is emphatic. The whole law is boiled down to the one commandment to “love the LORD thy God” (Deuteronomy 6:5). The outworking of this commandment is seen in our ‘loving our neighbours as ourselves’ ...read more

    Jesus teaches His Commandment that we must love one another. We cannot do this on our own, but only through abiding in Jesus.

    COMMANDMENT! I AM CERTAIN THAT THIS WORD ALONE WILL AUTOMATICALLY MAKE US THINK OF THE BOOK OF EXODUS AND THE TEN COMMANDMENTS WHICH GOD GAVE TO MOSES ON MOUNT SINAI. JUST THAT WORD, ALONE, APPEARS 320 TIMES THROUGHOUT 42 BOOKS OF THE BIBLE. COMMANDMENTS ARE INSTRUCTIONS THAT ARE POWERFUL ...read more

    The Greatest

    The analogy of the child being the greatest in God’s Kingdom was completely contrary to the prevailing culture then and now. Imagine how His disciples must have reacted to Jesus then and how indifferent it is even today.

    Opening illustration: If God was taking resumes, what would you put on yours? In other words, what makes a good Christian? What would really impress them when you arrive in heaven? Experience, qualifications, references, character traits … The reason I asked is because followers of Jesus ...read more

    This is the third sermon I preached in this series. We find a challenge issued by the Holy Spirit through the Apostle John which helps us see how to fulfill the Great Commandments “Love God and Love Others” and the Great Commission.

    Text: 1 John 4:1-11 (1) Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. (2) Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: (3) And every ...read more

    Unless done in love, all of our work and sacrifice will be for nothing. How can we maintain a motivation of love?

    When you heard today’s text being read, you could be forgiven for wondering if you had inadvertently wandered into a wedding. Because the reading of chapter thirteen of Saint Paul’s first letter to the Corinthians has become as much a fixture of marriage ceremonies as unity candles, ...read more

    Our Great Command

    We tend to view love as a warm fuzzy feeling reserved for a select few of our friends and family. However, God calls us to a life of holy love – a love founded on His love for us and built with decisive actions instead of feelings.

    Introduction: When I was in school studying to become a pastor, a fellow student said, “Church work would be a lot easier if it weren’t for people.” Me (my dilemma or question) I laughed at my friend’s statement – church work is about people. Pastors work with people day in and day out. Here are ...read more

    Love is the very center of what it means to be a Christian. Nothing we do or have can replace it. Greater than faith, greater than hope, is love.

    Notice the five things here that are empty without love: Tongues, prophecy, faith, generosity, sacrifice. Not just any kind of tongues, prophecy, faith, generosity and sacrifice, but the ultimate kind. Tongues of men and of angels. Prophecy that fathoms all mystery and knowledge. Faith that can ...read more

    The greatest of these is defined and explained in this text. 1- The superiority of love 2- The service of love 3- The steadfastness of love

    INTRO.- ILL.- Two friends were discussing the possibility of love. "I thought I was in love three times," one friend says. "How so?" his friend asks.

    If we want to be the greatest disciple, greatness will not be found as the world defines it, but in servanthood and in embracing the least of God’s children.

    Sports fans will know that Muhammad Ali today is called the greatest. Ali himself used to tell everyone “I am the greatest,” but not everyone agreed, especially when he was younger. He became the greatest in the eyes of the world over the last 40 years. Muhammad Ali ...read more

    -Love is one of the main themes of Advent. Love comes from God. God Himself is love. Why did God send us a Savior? Love! John 3:16 – For God so loved the world…. Jesus is God’s expression of love to us!

    The Greatest of These… 1. This is love… 1 Corinthians 13:1-8 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that ...read more

    This sermon from the Greatest Commandment passage seeks to help those with a low self-esteem to learn to love themselves on the basis of the truth of God’s Word and God’s Love.

    There’s a song by John Stallings that reminds me of the message this morning. It speaks about the bottom line principle that will enable you to love yourself. The song is entitled, “Learning To Lean.” The greatest commandment passage has within it the most posing challenge for you and for me; ...read more

    Introduction: Living In The Light It was a dark morning. Low, steel-colored clouds filled the sky, and the atmosphere was so dim that I needed to turn on the lights in order to read a book.
