    Loving God Series

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Oct 11, 2021
     | 3,690 views

    Let's look at the first of the great commandments, loving God.

    Before we get into the topic of loving God deeply, let’s do a little housekeeping. Mark 12:30 seems to add a word, “you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.” Where does the extra word come from? When the Bible ...read more

    Let's take a look at the second of the great commandments, love of neighbor. Matthew 22:39-40 The second is like it, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments depend the whole Law and the Prophets.” The second great commandment is to love our neighbor as ourselves. ...read more

    The life of grace is the start and first standard in the heart of a Believer. Those who have disdain in their hearts for their brother must be deprived of love.

    The life of grace is the start and first standard in the heart of a Believer. Those who have disdain in their hearts for their brother must be deprived of love. Jesus taught that hate is the same as murder. The life of Jesus, eternal life, cannot abide in us if we hate others. Do we detest any of ...read more

    Love Or Cosmetology? Series

    Valentine's Day: If church members do Christian things like feed the homeless or go on mission trips, and these acts are done without love, then people are just wasting their time. Without love, God doesn’t care what we do for Him.

    Neil Postman writes in his book Amusing Ourselves to Death, “that we have reached the point where cosmetics has replaced ideology [or “practice”] as [a] field of expertise.”(1) The verb “cosmeticize” means, “to make something unpleasant or ugly superficially attractive.”(2) It’s common for people ...read more

    Valentine's Day: Human beings have distorted the meaning of love. Some of the distortions about love are that love is purely physical, or that love is only a temporary state. These interpretations about love are way off base.

    The Greek writer Lucian who lived from 120-200 A.D. made an observation about Christians. He said, “It is incredible to see the fervor with which the people of that religion help each other in their wants. They spare nothing. Their first [leader, Jesus], has put it into their heads that they are ...read more

    "To Be Loved”

    Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on May 11, 2023
     | 1,576 views

    We need love. Love is an emotional bond that makes us feel safe, understood, and valued. That is what our mothers have done for us. It is what God has done for us through Jesus. If we keep, if we practice the teachings of Jesus it demonstrates our love for Him.

    In Jesus Holy Name May 14, 2023 Text: John 14:15 Easter VI Redeemer “To Be Loved” Last Sunday I suggested that as we read chapters 13-17 in John we should try imagine ourselves in the Upper Room ...read more

    The Unity Of Love

     | 2,040 views

    Paul's desire was that the Church would be unified, but what does that look like? We live in a time when the church seems fragmented and divided, and that is affecting who we reach and don't reach people.

    The Unity of Love If nothing else, you need to love the sixties and seventies for their awesome sense of style. The band was “The Brotherhood of Man,” the year was 1970, and the message of the song was spelled out in its title “United we stand, divided we fall.” Interesting tidbit about the ...read more

    The manner in which David deals with Mephibosheth shows us the standard of love long before Jesus preached it.

    Have you ever wondered why God is so good to lost people when they do not reciprocate in their feelings toward Him?

    Illus: Perhaps the answer can be illustrated by the story of the little girl who went to her mother to show her some fruit her friend gave her. The mother said, “Your friend has been very kind.” “Yes,” said the child, “She gave me more; but I gave some away.” When her mother asked who she gave ...read more
