anchor Faith.

00:00:06,500 --> 00:00:08,900
Message podcast from st. 
Augustine, Florida.

Aren't you thankful? 

6
00:00:25,500 --> 00:00:28,600
Hallelujah. 
Glory to God. 

7
00:00:29,700 --> 00:00:34,600
Well, last week we talked about 
the love of God, Amen. 

8
00:00:34,900 --> 00:00:38,400
How about how many of you been 
applying though? 

9
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:42,500
That love all week long. 
Amen. 

10
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:47,600
Hallelujah. 
Well, we actually read out of 

11
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:56,900
James chapter 2, right? 
well, we read out of a lot, but 

12
00:00:56,900 --> 00:01:01,100
I'm trying to find my scripture 
from last week, but the main 

13
00:01:01,100 --> 00:01:09,100
text that we started with was 
James chapter 2 verse 8 And it 

14
00:01:09,100 --> 00:01:13,100
said this, if you really fulfill
the Royal law. 

15
00:01:13,100 --> 00:01:16,800
According to scripture, you 
shall love your neighbor as 

16
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:23,500
yourself and you do well, amen. 
The Royal law, which actually 

17
00:01:23,500 --> 00:01:27,200
means the law of the Kingdom. 
The kingdom, law. 

18
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,000
Its Royal amen. 
Hallelujah. 

19
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:35,100
Because we're royalty. 
A men were royalty and so we 

20
00:01:35,100 --> 00:01:41,100
started out of that text and 
Looked at so many scriptures 

21
00:01:41,100 --> 00:01:46,700
concerning the love of God and 
how the love of God was always 

22
00:01:46,700 --> 00:01:53,300
connected to one another because
his love was not just about us, 

23
00:01:53,300 --> 00:01:57,500
but in every context of every 
scripture that we talked about 

24
00:01:57,500 --> 00:02:02,500
last week, it always made 
reference to his love and loving

25
00:02:02,500 --> 00:02:07,500
one another amen. 
And and so I feel that that's 

26
00:02:07,500 --> 00:02:11,100
very important. 
It that we recognize that this 

27
00:02:11,100 --> 00:02:17,700
love that we have was not just 
for us or about us only. 

28
00:02:17,700 --> 00:02:23,500
It was also about us making sure
that we're demonstrating his 

29
00:02:23,500 --> 00:02:25,800
love to others. 
Amen. 

30
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:32,500
And especially to Brothers and 
Sisters in Christ, right? 

31
00:02:32,900 --> 00:02:36,400
And so, it's very important, you
know, I said last week, I said I

32
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,100
crack myself up when I get up 
here. 

33
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:42,800
And Minister, you know, Pastor 
he's saying when he's always fun

34
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,300
and exciting and has all these 
wonderful stories. 

35
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:51,800
But really, when I get up to 
minister, like the Holy Ghost 

36
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,400
just brings to my remembrance 
things that I have not thought 

37
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:58,100
about in all my life like, you 
know. 

38
00:02:59,500 --> 00:03:03,500
So that's why I say I crack 
myself up because I'm like, oh 

39
00:03:03,500 --> 00:03:08,700
yeah, that did happen, you know,
because it's just so Buddy, how 

40
00:03:08,700 --> 00:03:13,300
he will bring up scenarios or 
situations in my life that I 

41
00:03:13,300 --> 00:03:17,000
never really even thought about 
and you know getting into fights

42
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,100
you never want to think about 
again the rest of your life you 

43
00:03:20,100 --> 00:03:24,100
know. 
So anyway he's good and he'll 

44
00:03:24,100 --> 00:03:27,400
use whatever he needs to 
demonstrate right or to 

45
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:35,500
communicate things. 
And so anyway, so we'll see what

46
00:03:35,500 --> 00:03:40,600
he has to say tonight. 
It's like what's gonna pop out 

47
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,300
tonight? 
Right? 

48
00:03:42,500 --> 00:03:47,000
Hallelujah. 
But so, I do want to finish in 

49
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:53,000
going in the vein of love, and 
talking about the love of God 

50
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:58,000
because we made it. 
So, so real last week concerning

51
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:02,000
us and the love that we have and
that we should have for one 

52
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:06,300
another. 
And so you know the question is 

53
00:04:06,300 --> 00:04:10,800
well how then do we? 
Love one another. 

54
00:04:11,500 --> 00:04:16,899
How do we what does Scripture 
say and how we are to 

55
00:04:16,899 --> 00:04:22,700
demonstrate this love to others 
and to other believers, you 

56
00:04:22,700 --> 00:04:25,900
know, the scripture tells us 
what we ought to do and how we 

57
00:04:25,900 --> 00:04:30,800
ought to do it, right? 
So there's nothing, no scenario,

58
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:37,200
no circumstance, anything from 
from the beginning of time until

59
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,300
we're all this thing is, All 
over in eternity. 

60
00:04:40,300 --> 00:04:43,600
That there is not an answer for 
in scripture. 

61
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:49,100
If he tells us that we are to do
something and we recognize that 

62
00:04:49,100 --> 00:04:53,100
he commanded us to love that, it
wasn't a choice and it's not an 

63
00:04:53,100 --> 00:04:56,000
option. 
Then he's going to let us know 

64
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,900
through scripture how we can 
actually apply this to our 

65
00:04:59,900 --> 00:05:02,200
everyday life. 
Right? 

66
00:05:02,300 --> 00:05:08,600
How we can actually Walk This 
Love out every day in our life. 

67
00:05:08,900 --> 00:05:15,300
Fry according to scripture. 
And I want to say this as we 

68
00:05:15,300 --> 00:05:19,400
said last week as a reminder 
that the love of God that we're 

69
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:23,100
talking about is a gossip. 
A this is the Greek word agape 

70
00:05:23,100 --> 00:05:25,500
love. 
And we talked about the fact 

71
00:05:25,500 --> 00:05:30,400
that we would not ever be able 
to walk out the god Kind of Love

72
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:35,600
without him in our lives, right?
Because once we get born again, 

73
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,600
the love of God Romans 5:5 says,
has been now Ow poured out in 

74
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,000
our hearts or shed abroad in our
hearts. 

75
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,000
And I like to call that the 
first fruit that showed up in 

76
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:52,600
your life is love, right? 
The first fruit right is love. 

77
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:57,500
And so we we talked about 
Galatians 5 last week at the end

78
00:05:57,500 --> 00:06:01,800
of the message, concerning the 
fruits of the spirit and love 

79
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,200
was the first one. 
He mentions love, peace 

80
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,100
patience, kindness. 
Goodness gentleness right 

81
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:12,800
self-control. 
All of these things are then now

82
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:18,100
fruits in our life that we have 
the responsibility to keep 

83
00:06:18,100 --> 00:06:22,200
growing and producing in our 
life. 

84
00:06:22,500 --> 00:06:29,400
I love what brother Hagin said, 
love is always the way to 

85
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:33,000
Victory. 
Love is always the way to 

86
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:40,400
Victory and, you know, Galatians
also said that Faith worketh by 

87
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:44,700
love. 
So if we are not motivated by 

88
00:06:44,700 --> 00:06:49,600
the love of God, in all that we 
do then, guess what's going to 

89
00:06:49,608 --> 00:06:52,200
be hindered? 
Our faith. 

90
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:57,900
So we know First Corinthians 13 
says, you know, you can have 

91
00:06:58,500 --> 00:07:02,600
faith to move mountains. 
But not. 

92
00:07:07,100 --> 00:07:12,900
And we'll read that in a little 
bit so we have to recognize that

93
00:07:12,900 --> 00:07:15,800
our love walk in. 
This is why brother Hagin says 

94
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:20,500
that is this the way to Victory 
because outside of the love of 

95
00:07:20,500 --> 00:07:25,100
God, nothing else is going to 
work to its fullness or operate 

96
00:07:25,100 --> 00:07:27,400
in the Kingdom properly in our 
life. 

97
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:31,300
So we can come to church until 
you know Kingdom. 

98
00:07:31,300 --> 00:07:36,600
Come all day long. 
Come to church go. 

99
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,200
Through the Motions. 
But if we have a problem with 

100
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:43,200
love, then nothing's going to 
work in our life. 

101
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:48,300
And so, we said this to that 
pastors book on the forest and 

102
00:07:48,300 --> 00:07:54,200
the way he demonstrates the 
kingdom of God, is that the 

103
00:07:54,300 --> 00:08:00,500
forest bed is nothing, but love.
So every subject that we teach 

104
00:08:00,500 --> 00:08:06,800
on, on the kingdom of God is 
growing up out of love in the 

105
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,300
Kingdom, right? 
Everything. 

106
00:08:09,300 --> 00:08:12,400
So healing it's going to operate
through. 

107
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,300
Love Faith. 
It's Going to operate through 

108
00:08:15,300 --> 00:08:19,200
love confession, it's going to 
operate anything that God's 

109
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:25,300
promise says that we can obtain 
in this life, as a Believer. 

110
00:08:25,300 --> 00:08:29,900
It's all going to be obtained. 
Making sure that the motivation 

111
00:08:30,100 --> 00:08:35,299
and the core in the root of 
everything that's going on is 

112
00:08:35,299 --> 00:08:38,299
motivated by love. 
Right? 

113
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:43,500
It's the root of Love. 
Okay, and it's so important that

114
00:08:43,500 --> 00:08:48,300
we recognize that because love 
has to be the driving force. 

115
00:08:48,300 --> 00:08:53,800
We said this in all that we do, 
why do we serve God? 

116
00:08:55,300 --> 00:09:00,900
Because we loving he loved us 
but now that he loved us, we 

117
00:09:00,900 --> 00:09:05,600
love him. 
So this is why we serve right? 

118
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:10,100
You know you might question 
whether or not you truly love 

119
00:09:10,100 --> 00:09:19,300
him if you don't even serve him 
in any capacity, Right. 

120
00:09:19,300 --> 00:09:26,100
So it's very important that we 
look at these things and you 

121
00:09:26,100 --> 00:09:31,000
know, examine our hearts 
because, you know, to see all 

122
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,600
that God wants to do in our 
lives where and even as the day 

123
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,800
draws near and all the things 
that we see going on in the 

124
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:42,200
world, we are going to have to 
take a position of love. 

125
00:09:43,700 --> 00:09:46,400
Period. 
We're going to have to take a 

126
00:09:46,408 --> 00:09:52,800
position of Love, okay? 
Meaning everything that we say, 

127
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,700
everything that we do, we need 
to ask ourselves. 

128
00:09:56,700 --> 00:10:00,800
What is motivating the words 
that are coming out of my mouth,

129
00:10:01,100 --> 00:10:04,900
what is motivating the action, 
that's getting ready to happen 

130
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:10,600
in my life, okay? 
First Corinthians I want to 

131
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:14,600
start here. 
First Corinthians, So the first 

132
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:19,600
point that I want to recognize 
is that again, love, must be the

133
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,500
motive and everything that we do
in the Kingdom. 

134
00:10:22,500 --> 00:10:26,700
So First Corinthians 16:14, says
this, let everything you do be 

135
00:10:26,700 --> 00:10:33,600
done in love. 
This wasn't my opinion. 

136
00:10:35,700 --> 00:10:40,100
Scripture literally says it. 
Let everything you do is that 

137
00:10:40,100 --> 00:10:42,400
just everything you do. 
When you come through the church

138
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:49,100
building know everything, you do
everything you do in every 

139
00:10:49,100 --> 00:10:53,300
sphere that you are a 
participant in if you're 

140
00:10:54,100 --> 00:10:57,900
married, if you're single, if 
you go to work, if you are a 

141
00:10:57,900 --> 00:11:01,700
student in school, right? 
If you're a nurse, if you're a 

142
00:11:01,708 --> 00:11:07,600
doctor, if you're whatever you 
do, let everything you do be 

143
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,000
done in love. 
The Amplified says this true. 

144
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:19,800
Love to God and man as inspired 
by God's love, right for us. 

145
00:11:20,300 --> 00:11:24,900
So what's your motivation and 
what's your inspiration and why 

146
00:11:24,900 --> 00:11:30,400
you do what you do every day in 
whatever you're doing? 

147
00:11:31,900 --> 00:11:39,100
Whatever you're doing, okay? 
Colossians 3:17 says this and 

148
00:11:39,100 --> 00:11:44,300
whatever you do, no matter what 
it is, in word or deed. 

149
00:11:44,300 --> 00:11:47,600
So he's letting us know. 
Now the word that's coming out 

150
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:52,400
of our mouths and the Deeds that
we are doing, do everything in 

151
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:56,300
the name of the Lord, Jesus 
Christ and Independence upon his

152
00:11:56,300 --> 00:12:02,200
person, giving praise to God the
Father through him a Amen. 

153
00:12:02,300 --> 00:12:08,300
So in whatever we do in word and
deed, we are to do it through 

154
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:13,300
the Lord Jesus Christ. 
As again, I said we cannot love 

155
00:12:13,500 --> 00:12:19,700
the way God loves separated from
his love We can't do it. 

156
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:24,100
We can't love properly. 
So we must know his love, 

157
00:12:24,100 --> 00:12:28,700
understand his love. 
And the way we do that is to we 

158
00:12:28,700 --> 00:12:32,500
talked about last week, we must 
be people that meditate on his 

159
00:12:32,500 --> 00:12:36,500
word abide in his word, right 
outside of it. 

160
00:12:36,500 --> 00:12:40,300
We're not going to do anything. 
We're going to listen to the 

161
00:12:40,300 --> 00:12:43,900
world's opinions about how we 
ought to love somebody. 

162
00:12:44,700 --> 00:12:49,600
Or whatever the case may be. 
Okay, well if you can have it 

163
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:53,300
recognized by now, the world has
no clue. 

164
00:12:56,300 --> 00:13:01,900
I'm on it does not take a you 
know scholar rochard science. 

165
00:13:01,900 --> 00:13:06,200
Thank you. 
To recognize the world, has no 

166
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,600
clue how to love. 
Okay. 

167
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:13,700
Or what love is. 
And so we cannot take our cues 

168
00:13:13,700 --> 00:13:21,200
from anything they say. 
Okay first Peter 1:22 says this 

169
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,900
since by your obedience to the 
truth, through the Holy Spirit, 

170
00:13:24,900 --> 00:13:29,600
you have purified your hearts 
for the sincere affection of the

171
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,800
Brethren. 
See that you love one? 

172
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,700
Another fervently here it is 
here's again motive from a pure 

173
00:13:35,700 --> 00:13:39,300
heart. 
From a pure heart. 

174
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:46,700
So again we must recognize that 
if we are going to apply the 

175
00:13:46,700 --> 00:13:51,100
love of God, the way that he 
desires for us to do it, then 

176
00:13:51,100 --> 00:13:56,700
that has to be with a purity of 
heart concerning his love, 

177
00:13:56,700 --> 00:13:59,100
right? 
And that has to be the motive 

178
00:13:59,300 --> 00:14:04,800
and everything that we are doing
throughout the day and 

179
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,100
throughout the week throughout 
every the rest today. 

180
00:14:07,300 --> 00:14:10,800
Observer your life, right? 
A pure heart. 

181
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,100
What does that mean? 
A pure heart means. 

182
00:14:14,100 --> 00:14:19,400
There's no selfish motive in it.
His heart has no selfishness in 

183
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,200
it. 
No manipulation in it. 

184
00:14:22,300 --> 00:14:26,100
No control in it. 
Come on. 

185
00:14:26,100 --> 00:14:32,400
No selfishness, no manipulation.
No, you know, controlling 

186
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:36,400
Spirit. 
No, it's pure. 

187
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,400
It's pure. 
And the only way we're going to 

188
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:46,300
see the purity of Love is if we 
abide in his love, right? 

189
00:14:46,300 --> 00:14:51,700
And recognize how his love 
functions and operates, okay, 

190
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:58,400
Colossians 3:12 Through 14. 
I want to say this. 

191
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,000
God is not going to help you 
love somebody. 

192
00:15:05,100 --> 00:15:07,500
He's not going to help you, you 
know, so don't pray. 

193
00:15:07,500 --> 00:15:09,500
Oh, please help me love this 
person. 

194
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,100
I mean he's not going to help 
you. 

195
00:15:17,300 --> 00:15:20,000
Why do I say that? 
Because he's already put hit the

196
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,600
helper on the inside. 
He's already put helping you. 

197
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:28,600
He's already put love in you. 
And now Colossians lets us know 

198
00:15:29,500 --> 00:15:34,000
in chapter 3 verses 12 through 
14 that we have to do something.

199
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:39,300
He says now close yourself. 
Put your Clubs closed on it. 

200
00:15:39,300 --> 00:15:44,300
One translation says, put it On 
this one, says closed yourself. 

201
00:15:44,300 --> 00:15:51,200
Put your love jacket on, right? 
Put your love clothes on. 

202
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:57,800
I like to say, pull up your big 
boy pants or big girl pants. 

203
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:05,900
Because remember, we talked 
about last week, that walking 

204
00:16:05,900 --> 00:16:10,100
and his love will have to do 
with someone who has been 

205
00:16:10,100 --> 00:16:16,800
perfected or maturing. 
Maturing in the love of God, 

206
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:22,100
allowing the fruit of love to 
constantly be growing within 

207
00:16:22,100 --> 00:16:25,400
your life. 
We should be able to love people

208
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,000
more today than we ever loved 
them. 

209
00:16:28,300 --> 00:16:34,100
Come on today, my word, if we 
could just get love, right, what

210
00:16:34,100 --> 00:16:40,400
we could be doing, Instead of 
sitting in church for 10 years 

211
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:45,500
and you still you know, would 
just you know slander. 

212
00:16:45,500 --> 00:16:50,600
Somebody gossip about somebody 
want to slap somebody's face. 

213
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:57,700
Want to talk about people, what 
have we been doing? 

214
00:16:59,100 --> 00:17:03,100
You know, when we went to Bible 
School, one of our instructors, 

215
00:17:03,100 --> 00:17:07,900
I believe it was Doug Jones. 
He let us know that. 

216
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:12,000
Really a person who gets born 
again. 

217
00:17:13,500 --> 00:17:18,800
Gets filled with the Holy Ghost 
and has set up underneath the 

218
00:17:18,900 --> 00:17:24,700
undefiled, preaching of God's 
word ought to have grown and 

219
00:17:24,700 --> 00:17:38,100
matured in three to five years. 
And three to five years yet, 

220
00:17:38,100 --> 00:17:42,100
we've got people that's been 
here with us over 10 15 years 

221
00:17:42,100 --> 00:17:46,300
and still act in a full. 
Yeah. 

222
00:17:47,500 --> 00:17:50,000
Right. 
What is this saying? 

223
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:54,100
You have not applied the 
principles. 

224
00:17:54,400 --> 00:18:00,400
You've not abided in his word. 
You've not allowed forgiveness 

225
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:05,000
to be a part of your life. 
Every day you've not done the 

226
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:10,000
word, you've heard what you need
to do and maybe you do a little 

227
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,500
sprinkle of it. 
Listen, this is fully mershon. 

228
00:18:13,500 --> 00:18:18,200
This is not a Catholic church. 
We don't sprinkle Cole anything 

229
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:22,000
around here. 
We fully immerse you in the 

230
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:32,200
power of the Living God. 
To be able to grow up and to be 

231
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:37,400
able to mature in the things of 
God, to be able to walk in 

232
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:41,300
Victory. 
Come on every day, every season,

233
00:18:41,300 --> 00:18:44,800
anything that comes up, you're 
able to walk in love. 

234
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,500
You're able to apply it to your 
life. 

235
00:18:48,300 --> 00:18:51,100
Hallelujah. 
Wow. 

236
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:55,600
Glory to God. 
So he says you better put your 

237
00:18:55,700 --> 00:19:03,400
love clothes on On we don't have
the option to not walk in love. 

238
00:19:03,900 --> 00:19:08,600
Not act like you're walking in 
love, but to actually walk in 

239
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:14,900
love, not act like it. 
Not fake it. 

240
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:20,500
No, actually do it, right? 
So he says close yourself. 

241
00:19:20,500 --> 00:19:25,000
Therefore as God's Own chosen 
ones, his own picked 

242
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:30,800
Representatives who are purified
and holy and well beloved by God

243
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:36,500
himself, by putting on Behavior 
marked by tender-hearted pity 

244
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:40,300
and mercy kind of feeling a 
lowly opinion of yourself, 

245
00:19:40,300 --> 00:19:45,500
gentle ways and patience which 
is 2 tireless and long-suffering

246
00:19:45,500 --> 00:19:51,300
and has the power to endure. 
Whatever comes with a good 

247
00:19:51,300 --> 00:19:57,400
Tipper, be gentle and for 
bearing with one another and F 

248
00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:01,300
is. 
And if one has a difference, a 

249
00:20:01,300 --> 00:20:06,600
grievance, a complaint against 
another readily pardoning each 

250
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,400
other? 
Pardon one, another. 

251
00:20:14,300 --> 00:20:17,400
Even as the Lord has freely 
forgiven you. 

252
00:20:18,500 --> 00:20:23,800
So must you also forgive and 
above all these, what are you to

253
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:29,600
do? 
Put on love enfold yourselves 

254
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:34,500
with the bond of perfectness, 
which binds everything together 

255
00:20:34,500 --> 00:20:42,500
completely and I deal Harmony. 
The scripture lets us know how 

256
00:20:42,500 --> 00:20:47,600
we are to love one another. 
He lets us know how we're too 

257
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,400
close ourselves in the love of 
God. 

258
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,400
He lets us know that it's our 
responsibility. 

259
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:58,900
I've given you the fruit now. 
You produce it. 

260
00:20:59,100 --> 00:21:04,500
You close yourself in it. 
You put it on in whatever 

261
00:21:04,500 --> 00:21:08,600
circumstance Comes Your Way. 
Say all right, I've got the love

262
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:12,400
of God. 
I know this. 

263
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,500
I know that. 
I know what they're saying. 

264
00:21:14,500 --> 00:21:18,900
I know what they've done, but 
I've got love, but I've got love

265
00:21:19,700 --> 00:21:22,100
right? 
And I'm going to put it on and 

266
00:21:22,100 --> 00:21:28,100
I'm gonna pardon their mess. 
I'm going to Pardon it. 

267
00:21:29,300 --> 00:21:31,700
Hallelujah. 
That don't mean, I'm going to be

268
00:21:31,700 --> 00:21:34,300
their best friend. 
That don't mean. 

269
00:21:34,300 --> 00:21:37,400
I'm even going to engage with 
them, but that is going to be 

270
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,600
pardoned. 
And if I ever speak to him 

271
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:43,000
again, I'll have no ought in my 
heart because he actually tells 

272
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:49,400
us in Mark 11:23 through 25 that
if we have any ought against 

273
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:53,200
anyone, anyone, we ought to go 
the them before. 

274
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,100
We even think we're going to 
come up to this Altar and pray 

275
00:21:56,100 --> 00:22:03,200
and ask him for anything. 
He lets us know how we are to 

276
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:08,900
walk in love and it's not 
natural. 

277
00:22:10,100 --> 00:22:14,500
It don't come natural but it 
will come naturally 

278
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:20,300
Supernatural. 
But you got to be tapped into 

279
00:22:20,300 --> 00:22:23,500
the supernatural. 
Hallelujah. 

280
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:29,700
So the next thing we recognize 
is that obviously our motive has

281
00:22:29,700 --> 00:22:31,700
to be pure. 
We have to be the ones 

282
00:22:31,700 --> 00:22:35,200
responsible to clothe ourselves 
everyday and the love of God. 

283
00:22:35,700 --> 00:22:42,200
But you see here and that last 
statement that was made in verse

284
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:45,700
14. 
It said this and above all of 

285
00:22:45,700 --> 00:22:48,700
these put on love enfold 
yourselves. 

286
00:22:49,700 --> 00:22:54,000
You know, when I hear the word 
enfold, I'm thinking of baking. 

287
00:22:55,800 --> 00:23:01,200
You know how you it tells you to
fold this in? 

288
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:07,200
Right and fold yourself. 
So this is the picture that I 

289
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:11,800
got with baking with certain 
items your to fold it in. 

290
00:23:12,100 --> 00:23:17,500
You're not mixing it in, right? 
You're not taking a blender and 

291
00:23:17,500 --> 00:23:20,400
did it at it. 
Uh, no, you're taking that spoon

292
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:24,500
or that spatula and you're 
slowly just folding it in. 

293
00:23:26,100 --> 00:23:31,300
Just fold it in and letting it 
take its time to wear what then 

294
00:23:31,300 --> 00:23:36,900
it's all mixed in gently and 
evenly, right? 

295
00:23:37,100 --> 00:23:41,000
It's gentle. 
It's even everything's perfect. 

296
00:23:41,100 --> 00:23:45,800
Why is this? 
Because when we fold in love, 

297
00:23:46,300 --> 00:23:50,600
this is a process. 
It's a slower process. 

298
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:52,900
Is what I'm saying. 
We not just going to get the 

299
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,700
mixer and the beaters, and just 
put a little and be done. 

300
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:59,000
In three seconds, right? 
And we're not going to get the 

301
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:04,300
Whisk and be done. 
No, Finn folding is a process. 

302
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:11,900
A process of allowing love to 
just wrap itself within you and 

303
00:24:11,900 --> 00:24:15,700
whatever situation or 
circumstances you're going in, 

304
00:24:15,700 --> 00:24:20,000
you're just going to slowly let 
the process happen and work it 

305
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:26,300
in and work it in those areas in
your heart that you're dealing 

306
00:24:26,300 --> 00:24:29,200
with. 
You see what I'm saying? 

307
00:24:30,300 --> 00:24:34,300
But then, if you go on further, 
it says which binds everything 

308
00:24:34,300 --> 00:24:37,000
together. 
So this infolding. 

309
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:41,000
What is it saying? 
It's a bond of perfection, 

310
00:24:41,300 --> 00:24:43,000
right? 
And it's binding. 

311
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:48,000
Everything together completely 
in ideal Harmony because I'm 

312
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:54,000
going to tell you what God wants
Harmony among his people. 

313
00:24:55,500 --> 00:24:59,300
He does not want Strife. 
He does not want division. 

314
00:24:59,500 --> 00:25:03,600
He does not want God. 
He doesn't want any that of 

315
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:05,000
that. 
Among his people. 

316
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,900
He wants Harmony. 
What is another word? 

317
00:25:07,900 --> 00:25:09,400
We use? 
Unity. 

318
00:25:10,100 --> 00:25:15,000
Unity. 
He wants Unity among the body of

319
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:18,100
Christ. 
Among the Church of God. 

320
00:25:18,100 --> 00:25:21,700
He wants unity. 
And not only that he wants. 

321
00:25:21,700 --> 00:25:24,900
This is the second Point, unity 
and Reconciliation. 

322
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:30,100
Must be. 
Part of the motivation of why we

323
00:25:30,100 --> 00:25:33,000
are walking in love that we are 
going to guard, the body of 

324
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:36,500
Christ. 
We are going to bring unity and 

325
00:25:36,500 --> 00:25:40,700
Harmony and Reconciliation among
the body of Christ. 

326
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:47,400
It is a shame when people try to
tear down other people in the 

327
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:54,000
body of Christ, It's terrible. 
Terrible. 

328
00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:00,600
It's a terrible thing. 
He said he actually hates those 

329
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:09,600
that Bring what Discord? 
Because he wants unity and 

330
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:15,100
harmony. 
He doesn't want Discord some. 

331
00:26:15,100 --> 00:26:20,100
He hates it. 
Okay, what does that mean to 

332
00:26:20,100 --> 00:26:24,200
bring to have a motive to bring 
unity and Reconciliation? 

333
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,900
In the body of Christ. 
Another way we want to say it is

334
00:26:28,900 --> 00:26:32,900
we should be protecting and 
guarding the body of Christ. 

335
00:26:35,500 --> 00:26:41,600
I don't ever want to bring 
disdain upon the body of Christ.

336
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:49,000
I don't ever want to be somebody
that would rip down the body of 

337
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:52,300
Christ. 
When I hear things that are said

338
00:26:52,300 --> 00:26:58,300
on Facebook and Instagram about 
churches or other pastors, I 

339
00:26:58,300 --> 00:27:05,500
mean I don't care if they were 
the the most messed up Pastor on

340
00:27:05,500 --> 00:27:10,100
the face of the planet. 
You have no right to make a 

341
00:27:10,100 --> 00:27:14,500
comment concerning. 
In him as a True Believer. 

342
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:19,700
Because you are causing Discord 
in the body of Christ. 

343
00:27:19,700 --> 00:27:22,200
I would want to love and 
protect. 

344
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:27,000
Does it mean I agree with? 
Does it mean that he was right? 

345
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:31,500
But I would never slander a 
person or even give my opinion 

346
00:27:31,500 --> 00:27:36,400
or talk to anyone in a public 
forum to bring Discord to the 

347
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:40,600
body of Christ or to bring 
slander among the body of 

348
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,300
Christ. 
There's enough mess going on 

349
00:27:43,300 --> 00:27:47,100
without the people that are 
Supposed to be Christians. 

350
00:27:53,500 --> 00:28:00,100
Even ministers that fight one 
another and and and talk about 

351
00:28:00,100 --> 00:28:02,000
one another. 
I mean, there's a whole 

352
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:06,600
situation I could talk about 
right here around our own, you 

353
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:12,800
know, Sphere not going to say 
where, but it's a huge Ministry 

354
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,600
that you know, that something 
happened. 

355
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:25,200
And instead of just letting it 
play out, it's like they have to

356
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:30,000
get up and defend themselves 
and, you know, all these other 

357
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:33,700
things, you know what, you don't
have to defend your character, 

358
00:28:33,700 --> 00:28:41,500
God will avenge because it 
brings dis more damage to the 

359
00:28:41,500 --> 00:28:44,100
body of Christ. 
When they see all of this 

360
00:28:44,100 --> 00:28:47,600
publicly unfolding and this back
and forth. 

361
00:28:47,608 --> 00:28:51,400
Fourth row, the board did me 
wrong, so I'm going to go and 

362
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:55,700
I'm going to pick up and do it 
and do it all on everything and 

363
00:28:55,700 --> 00:29:00,200
show all the legal paperwork. 
And for everybody to read, you 

364
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:04,500
don't have to vindicate 
yourself, no matter what has 

365
00:29:04,500 --> 00:29:08,100
happened, because that is 
bringing more damage to the body

366
00:29:08,100 --> 00:29:11,900
of Christ than anything else. 
You're not covering, you're not 

367
00:29:11,900 --> 00:29:17,100
protecting, no matter what 
happens, our motive should be. 

368
00:29:17,100 --> 00:29:20,700
I'm going Protect the body of 
Christ at all cost. 

369
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:27,200
Right. 
It's so important that we 

370
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:32,700
recognize that, that he hates 
that he hates Discord. 

371
00:29:32,700 --> 00:29:40,800
And, and to say anything 
publicly about another member in

372
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:45,400
the body of Christ, no matter 
who they are, publicly is wrong 

373
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,500
because you're not covering and 
you're not protecting, and have 

374
00:29:49,500 --> 00:29:53,400
of us, have no clue what's 
really going on and it's just an

375
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:58,000
opinion. 
Right? 

376
00:29:59,300 --> 00:30:02,100
So this should be our motive 
that we are going to protect. 

377
00:30:02,100 --> 00:30:06,800
We're going to cover at all 
costs and let God render what 

378
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,100
needs to be rendered. 
Right? 

379
00:30:09,500 --> 00:30:15,400
Ephesians 4:2 through 3 says, 
this living as becomes you with 

380
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,600
complete lowliness of Mind, 
humility and meekness, 

381
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:23,200
unselfishness gentleness, 
mildness with patience bearing 

382
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:27,400
with one another and making. 
This is because you love one, 

383
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:33,200
another be eager and strive 
earnestly to guard, and keep the

384
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:38,000
Harmony and Oneness of, and 
produced by the spirit and 

385
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:45,100
binding, the power of peace. 
So we ought to be guarding and 

386
00:30:45,100 --> 00:30:48,100
protecting right? 
One another. 

387
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:53,400
And that should be the thing 
that drives Us in whatever it is

388
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:58,600
that we encounter. 
How can I make sure that I'm 

389
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:02,400
going to bring Unity to this 
situation reconciliation to this

390
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:06,600
road situation? 
And it's not my business to let 

391
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,500
anybody else know what's going 
on? 

392
00:31:11,300 --> 00:31:13,800
Right? 
Because love is going to cover. 

393
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:19,200
It's going to protect that. 
Don't mean as again that I agree

394
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:23,200
or disagree, it just means no, 
it's nobody else's business 

395
00:31:25,100 --> 00:31:30,900
because what happens is if, if 
reconciliation comes forgiveness

396
00:31:30,900 --> 00:31:36,200
is applied and now we all go on 
with our life, but if you go 

397
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:40,000
around talking to people about 
it, you've sewn a bad sour. 

398
00:31:40,100 --> 00:31:46,500
Our seed of something. 
About somebody and you may have 

399
00:31:46,500 --> 00:31:49,500
forgiven them. 
God may have forgiven them but 

400
00:31:49,500 --> 00:31:54,000
now that seed is sown into 
somebody else and they may not 

401
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,900
be able to forgive them so 
you've actually became a 

402
00:31:56,900 --> 00:32:01,800
stumbling block to someone else 
because now they're stumbling 

403
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:05,100
over what they found out about 
somebody because you didn't love

404
00:32:05,100 --> 00:32:12,000
you didn't guard and you didn't 
protect The unity of the harmony

405
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:16,400
of Oneness by the spirit because
he goes on to talk about. 

406
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:22,900
We are one, we are the body of 
Christ, we are all a part of 

407
00:32:22,900 --> 00:32:26,800
him, we are all one. 
We are all jointed and fitted 

408
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:30,200
together as the body of Christ. 
That's where he says. 

409
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:35,900
If one hurts you ought to hurt 
so you shouldn't be going around

410
00:32:35,900 --> 00:32:41,500
talking to everybody about this 
person hurting Right. 

411
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,700
But why? 
Because we feel of one another. 

412
00:32:45,700 --> 00:32:48,800
We are of God, we are one, we 
are one body. 

413
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:53,800
We Are One spirit in the body of
Christ, and we ought to guard 

414
00:32:53,900 --> 00:32:59,700
that Philippians 2:58, says this
Philip and complete my Joy by 

415
00:32:59,700 --> 00:33:03,700
living in Harmony and being of 
the same mind here. 

416
00:33:03,700 --> 00:33:07,000
It is the same mind. 
What is that? 

417
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,100
The mind of Christ. 
How he thinks? 

418
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:14,500
And he thinks unity, and he 
thinks Harmony So, being of the 

419
00:33:14,500 --> 00:33:18,200
same mind one purpose, having 
the same love. 

420
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:24,400
This is not the way you define, 
how you are to Love by the by 

421
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:29,200
God. 
No, this is defined by his love 

422
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:32,900
and how he says, through 
scripture, we are to love and 

423
00:33:32,900 --> 00:33:37,100
what we ought to do, right? 
So, one purpose, having the 

424
00:33:37,100 --> 00:33:42,700
same, love being in full Accord 
and of one harmonious. 

425
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:46,400
Mind and intention, you see 
that? 

426
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:50,800
And then he goes on to say, do 
nothing from factual motives 

427
00:33:51,300 --> 00:33:56,900
through contentiousness, Strife,
selfishness, or for unworthy 

428
00:33:56,900 --> 00:34:01,200
ends or prompted by conceit and 
empty arrogance. 

429
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:07,700
Instead in the true Spirit of 
humility, lowliness of Mind, Let

430
00:34:07,700 --> 00:34:12,600
each regard the other as better 
than and Superior to himself. 

431
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:17,900
Thinking more highly of your of 
one another than you do of 

432
00:34:17,900 --> 00:34:22,300
yourselves. 
So we ought to think more 

433
00:34:22,300 --> 00:34:27,000
importantly, about how this is 
going to affect the other person

434
00:34:27,100 --> 00:34:31,699
than my own self meaning. 
I don't care what they say, it 

435
00:34:31,699 --> 00:34:37,699
doesn't give me a right to go 
out and just Because I care more

436
00:34:37,699 --> 00:34:39,900
about them than what they're 
demonstrating. 

437
00:34:39,900 --> 00:34:44,100
They care about me at the moment
because if their motive was 

438
00:34:44,100 --> 00:34:50,199
truly God's love. 
It was of a pure heart, then 

439
00:34:50,199 --> 00:34:52,199
they would have the same mind as
him. 

440
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:57,600
But it's obvious that they don't
because of the things they say, 

441
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:02,300
you see what I'm saying? 
So, it's very important that we 

442
00:35:02,300 --> 00:35:06,400
recognize that. 
And that goes back to the 

443
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:11,100
scripture do unto others as you 
would have them do unto you. 

444
00:35:12,100 --> 00:35:18,200
It now goes right back to that 
if you don't want your business 

445
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:22,000
thrown out there for everybody 
then guess what? 

446
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:27,800
See so what we know that's the 
principle of sowing and reaping 

447
00:35:28,900 --> 00:35:34,000
Right. 
First, Peter 4 and 8, says this 

448
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:39,400
above, all things have intense 
and unfailing love for one 

449
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:43,700
another. 
I ought to be so intense, in an 

450
00:35:43,700 --> 00:35:48,900
unfailing love towards one 
another wow, it's not have an 

451
00:35:48,900 --> 00:35:51,300
intense unfailing, love towards 
him. 

452
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,800
But how about an intense and 
unfailing love towards you? 

453
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:12,500
And you and you and you and one 
another right, not towards him 

454
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:18,500
but towards one another for love
covers, a multitude of sin 

455
00:36:19,100 --> 00:36:22,900
forgives disregards, the 
offenses of others. 

456
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:29,200
Now let me say this. 
Love covers a multitude of sin. 

457
00:36:29,300 --> 00:36:33,800
Love can only be applied if 
repentance happens. 

458
00:36:36,100 --> 00:36:39,500
This is not a cop-out. 
Well, they did this to me and 

459
00:36:39,500 --> 00:36:43,800
now there's no accountability 
for beaten me as, you know, say 

460
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:47,900
a husband beat a wife. 
Well, love covers a multitude of

461
00:36:47,900 --> 00:36:52,700
sin so I forgive him. 
So he can just keep on beating 

462
00:36:52,700 --> 00:36:59,400
me know, because love can only 
be applied if forgiveness has 

463
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:04,900
been released and repentance. 
Repentance. 

464
00:37:05,900 --> 00:37:10,600
Right. 
So, it's not a cop-out, it's not

465
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:13,400
a cover-up. 
We don't sweep things under the 

466
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:19,600
rug, so to speak. 
We don't just sweep it under the

467
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,700
rug and act like it didn't 
happen. 

468
00:37:23,100 --> 00:37:30,600
No, love his love covers. 
Through repentance. 

469
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:33,700
Amen. 
Hallelujah. 

470
00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:40,200
So it forgives it. 
Lets the offenses go right after

471
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:45,400
there's been repentance. 
Proverbs 10 verse 12, hatred, 

472
00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:53,300
stirs up contentions, but love 
covers all transgressions, see 

473
00:37:53,300 --> 00:37:56,800
that? 
So, we're here to make sure that

474
00:37:56,800 --> 00:38:01,100
we are motivated to at all 
times. 

475
00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:04,000
X. 
Apply the love of God. 

476
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,400
I always like to say this, that 
bracelet, what would Jesus do? 

477
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:09,700
We need to be saying, what would
love do? 

478
00:38:11,500 --> 00:38:15,600
Which we know he is love but 
what would love do in every 

479
00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:17,700
situation? 
Right? 

480
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:24,100
What would he do? 
So this is so important because 

481
00:38:24,100 --> 00:38:29,900
I believe that for us to walk in
the fullness of what God needs 

482
00:38:29,900 --> 00:38:34,200
to do in these last days. 
Is that people are going to see 

483
00:38:34,500 --> 00:38:37,800
a purity of God's love like 
never before. 

484
00:38:40,300 --> 00:38:43,500
They're going to have to see 
because you can see the 

485
00:38:43,500 --> 00:38:47,500
counterfeit of love and what 
love is being talked about today

486
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:51,000
which is unconditional. 
It doesn't matter what you do, 

487
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:56,000
who you love, you know, who you 
can be, whoever you want to be 

488
00:38:56,200 --> 00:39:00,200
all of those things. 
And so the counterfeit of that 

489
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:04,100
is they've got to see pure love 
and where are they going to see 

490
00:39:04,100 --> 00:39:07,700
it? 
Among the brethren. 

491
00:39:08,700 --> 00:39:12,800
Among the Brethren true love the
love of God. 

492
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:16,500
What are we saying? 
John 13:35 says this. 

493
00:39:16,500 --> 00:39:19,100
I'm reading this one out of the 
New Living Translation. 

494
00:39:19,100 --> 00:39:23,000
It says your love for one. 
Another will prove to the world 

495
00:39:23,100 --> 00:39:27,600
that you are my disciples. 
Your love for one. 

496
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:31,500
Another is going to prove to the
world that you're truly my 

497
00:39:31,500 --> 00:39:34,300
disciples. 
So they've got to see the 

498
00:39:34,300 --> 00:39:39,200
unadulterated the pure love of 
God, the agape love of God, 

499
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:45,000
flowing and operating among the 
Brethren among disciples so that

500
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:49,400
we can be the counterfeit to 
what's being spoken today. 

501
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,200
We need to see the proof is in 
the pudding. 

502
00:39:56,100 --> 00:40:01,400
And the bottom line is, you can 
see the result of Love, Actually

503
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:04,800
working, and flowing, and 
operating and people's lives, 

504
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:09,200
and they need to see it. 
They need to see it. 

505
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:17,100
Demonstrated. 
All right, let me read verse 34,

506
00:40:17,100 --> 00:40:20,400
through 35 of John 13. 
It says a new commandment. 

507
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:25,100
I give to you that you love one.
Another as I have loved you that

508
00:40:25,100 --> 00:40:32,300
you also love one another. 
By this all will know that you 

509
00:40:32,300 --> 00:40:36,200
are my disciples. 
If you have love for one another

510
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,100
Amen. 
Not how much you come to church 

511
00:40:39,100 --> 00:40:43,700
and say you love God. 
Pastor said that, right? 

512
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:48,300
It's not, you know how much you 
serve in the children's ministry

513
00:40:48,500 --> 00:40:58,600
yet, you talk about the other 
person serving Right. 

514
00:41:00,100 --> 00:41:04,000
Come on. 
SO in talking about the love of 

515
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:12,500
God, the next point is, is that 
the word Love and as we see it 

516
00:41:12,500 --> 00:41:16,400
through scripture and I want to 
read 1st Corinthians 13. 

517
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:24,700
Now, let me find that one First 
Corinthians 13. 1 through 8, 

518
00:41:24,700 --> 00:41:29,100
says this, if I speak with 
tongues of men and of angels, 

519
00:41:29,100 --> 00:41:34,000
but do not have love. 
I have become a noisy gong or a 

520
00:41:34,008 --> 00:41:37,800
clanging cymbal. 
You're just making a lot of 

521
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:45,500
noise and it's very obvious. 
Very obvious, a clanging noisy 

522
00:41:45,500 --> 00:41:50,500
gong is very obvious. 
It's not in harmony with the 

523
00:41:50,500 --> 00:41:54,800
rest of the band, so to speak. 
Right. 

524
00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:00,600
It's very obvious so you can 
tell. 

525
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:04,900
And it says this in verse 2, if 
I have the gift of Prophecy and 

526
00:42:04,900 --> 00:42:08,900
I know all Mysteries and all 
knowledge and if I have all 

527
00:42:08,900 --> 00:42:13,700
Faith so as to remove mountains,
but do not have love, I am 

528
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:16,500
nothing. 
If I give all my possessions to 

529
00:42:16,500 --> 00:42:19,700
feed the poro, I'm feeding those
poor down at dining, with 

530
00:42:19,700 --> 00:42:23,600
dignity all the time. 
But yet coming in, you know, act

531
00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:27,000
in a full every other time. 
No. 

532
00:42:28,500 --> 00:42:32,200
If I Surrender my body to be 
burned but do not have love it. 

533
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:36,800
Profits me. 
Nothing love is patient. 

534
00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:43,100
Love is kind, this is what love 
looks like and operates how it 

535
00:42:43,100 --> 00:42:46,200
operates in an individual's 
life. 

536
00:42:46,500 --> 00:42:51,100
Love is patient. 
Love is kind, it's not jealous. 

537
00:42:53,500 --> 00:42:57,800
It's not jealous. 
Most of the time. 

538
00:42:59,700 --> 00:43:03,900
One of the, you know, prevalent 
things in people's lives is they

539
00:43:03,900 --> 00:43:09,300
just are jealous. 
Of somebody else's even walk in 

540
00:43:09,300 --> 00:43:12,600
Christ. 
Come on. 

541
00:43:13,700 --> 00:43:16,900
Because they're actually winning
and they're actually having 

542
00:43:16,900 --> 00:43:20,000
victory in their life and then 
they get jealous and they just 

543
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:23,600
want to tear that person down to
make them look better in 

544
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:29,300
themselves. 
Right, so he said it does not 

545
00:43:29,300 --> 00:43:32,600
brag, it's not arrogant does not
act Unbecoming. 

546
00:43:34,100 --> 00:43:36,800
It does not seek its own, which 
is meaning. 

547
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:41,400
It's not about me, I'm not being
selfish here, it's not provoked.

548
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:46,200
It means you don't provoke 
someone to not walk in love or 

549
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:49,800
to not bring Unity or to not 
bring reconciliation. 

550
00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:55,400
You don't provoke them. 
You should be bringing peace in.

551
00:43:55,400 --> 00:44:01,800
The situation does not take into
account of suffered wrong. 

552
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:05,400
This is the big one. 
This is the big one. 

553
00:44:05,700 --> 00:44:07,000
Do you know what they've done to
me? 

554
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:08,900
Do you know how many times 
they've done this? 

555
00:44:08,900 --> 00:44:11,000
Well, Seventy Times Seven is 
what I hear. 

556
00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:20,000
The scripture says Right. 
Does not rejoice in 

557
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,900
unrighteousness. 
But rejoices with the truth 

558
00:44:22,900 --> 00:44:26,700
Bears, all things believes all 
things, hopes all things, 

559
00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:31,700
endures, all things, Love, Never
Fails. 

560
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:39,000
Hallelujah, love never fails. 
His love will never fail. 

561
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:44,200
When you choose to apply it to 
your life, because that's why 

562
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:48,000
another reason brother Hagin 
said love is The way to Victory 

563
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:51,200
because you can never fail when 
you apply his love in. 

564
00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:54,100
Every situation, you will have 
Victory. 

565
00:44:55,600 --> 00:45:01,500
You will have victory in that 
situation when you choose to 

566
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:06,500
apply the love of God, according
to wet, the way he says, it is 

567
00:45:06,500 --> 00:45:09,000
to be applied to your life, and 
to others. 

568
00:45:09,100 --> 00:45:12,000
Amen. 
So it's very important that we 

569
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:17,400
recognize and looking at love. 
I've said this love is Verb. 

570
00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:18,700
There used to be old. 
Was it? 

571
00:45:18,708 --> 00:45:21,600
DC Talk? 
Or I've said this before Audio 

572
00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:25,800
Adrenaline one of them. 
Love is a verb. 

573
00:45:27,100 --> 00:45:30,600
Love Is A Verb. 
It is an action word. 

574
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:37,700
So there is always action behind
you operating and love and 

575
00:45:37,700 --> 00:45:42,700
working love in your life. 
Is there is action behind it. 

576
00:45:43,300 --> 00:45:48,100
It's not just talking about oh I
love them but there's no action 

577
00:45:48,100 --> 00:45:53,200
behind it. 
Anything God does, he always 

578
00:45:53,200 --> 00:46:01,400
follows through with it? 
There's always action behind 

579
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:07,300
love first. 
John 3:14 says this. 

580
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:11,900
It says, we know that we have 
passed from Death to life 

581
00:46:11,900 --> 00:46:18,600
because we love the brethren. 
He who does not love his brother

582
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:23,500
abides in death, whoever hates 
his brother is a murderer and 

583
00:46:23,500 --> 00:46:27,000
know that no murderer has 
eternal life abiding. 

584
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:32,900
In him by this. 
We know love Because he laid 

585
00:46:32,900 --> 00:46:38,700
down his life for us and we also
ought to what lay down our lives

586
00:46:38,700 --> 00:46:41,200
for our Brethren. 
And I said this last week as we 

587
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:44,100
were quoting, the scripture that
that means, we're going too 

588
00:46:44,100 --> 00:46:46,500
late. 
We're going to sacrifice the way

589
00:46:46,500 --> 00:46:50,500
we feel. 
In the situation. 

590
00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:54,500
We're going to sacrifice how it 
feels to us. 

591
00:46:54,500 --> 00:46:57,400
What they've done to us. 
We're going to sacrifice it on 

592
00:46:57,400 --> 00:47:02,800
love on the altar of love. 
I'm going to sacrifice it right 

593
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:05,700
there. 
I'm going to lay it down and I'm

594
00:47:05,700 --> 00:47:11,000
going to pick up his love and 
say yeah they did this to me but

595
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:15,000
the love of God is going to let 
me now what forgive them? 

596
00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:20,000
Do whatever I need to do in the 
situation to promote Unity 

597
00:47:20,100 --> 00:47:23,100
Harmony and be the bond of 
peace. 

598
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:28,900
No matter what happened. 
So we're going to sacrifice the 

599
00:47:28,900 --> 00:47:33,200
way I feel because God's love is
not selfish. 

600
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:40,700
It is self less. 
It's not about us. but how many 

601
00:47:40,700 --> 00:47:46,000
people still, you know what they
did to me, they don't Everybody 

602
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:49,800
has a story. 
And really, that's victim. 

603
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:54,500
Mentality. 
You're still a victim and not a 

604
00:47:54,500 --> 00:48:02,600
Victor. 
So he says this nobody's, I'm 

605
00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:05,100
not getting a happy story. 
Maybe we'll laugh before it's 

606
00:48:05,100 --> 00:48:10,500
over. 
It says, and we also ought to 

607
00:48:10,500 --> 00:48:12,600
lay down our lives for over 
other verse 17. 

608
00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:15,800
But whoever has this world's 
goods and see his brother in 

609
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:18,900
need and shuts up his heart from
him. 

610
00:48:19,500 --> 00:48:22,000
How does the love of God abide 
in him? 

611
00:48:22,500 --> 00:48:29,000
Verse 18, my little children, 
let us not love in word, this is

612
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:33,800
a ghave. 
The word agape love in word or 

613
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:38,700
in tongue, but in deed and 
Truth. 

614
00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:44,100
With action in deed and Truth. 
Why is that? 

615
00:48:44,300 --> 00:48:48,500
What is the word say? 
Is the action that needs to take

616
00:48:48,500 --> 00:48:55,000
place for this situation and he 
said, he said, don't just love 

617
00:48:55,000 --> 00:49:02,600
in word or in just saying, but 
in deed and Truth, Okay. 

618
00:49:03,500 --> 00:49:07,200
And by this, we know that we are
of the truth. 

619
00:49:07,300 --> 00:49:17,400
Oh By what, by the deed. 
We know that we're in the truth 

620
00:49:17,900 --> 00:49:21,600
because we're actually going to 
do what we know the word says to

621
00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:25,100
do. 
So we're applying truth to our 

622
00:49:25,100 --> 00:49:27,800
life and shall assure our hearts
before him. 

623
00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:31,100
For if our hearts do not condemn
us, God is greater than our 

624
00:49:31,100 --> 00:49:33,100
heart and knows all things 
beloved. 

625
00:49:33,100 --> 00:49:37,200
If our heart does not condemn 
us, we have confidence towards 

626
00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:40,600
God and whatever. 
We ask, we receive from him 

627
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:44,900
because we keep his Commandments
and do the things that are 

628
00:49:44,900 --> 00:49:49,800
pleasing in his sight. 
So when we don't walk in love, 

629
00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:52,300
we are not pleasing to the 
father. 

630
00:49:54,900 --> 00:49:58,000
We are not pleasing to him. 
I don't care what song you sing 

631
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:00,000
that says, you're he's out your 
all. 

632
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:05,900
He's always pleased with you. 
And that he's never against you.

633
00:50:05,900 --> 00:50:09,900
Actually he says he's against 
the proud in noose to Testament 

634
00:50:10,100 --> 00:50:13,500
and the proud is, those who want
to do it their way instead of 

635
00:50:13,508 --> 00:50:25,800
God's way, he resists the proud.
so, verse 23. 

636
00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:29,700
It says, and this is his 
Commandment that we should 

637
00:50:29,700 --> 00:50:34,000
believe on the name of the son 
of Jesus Christ and love one 

638
00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:37,900
another, as he gave us a 
commandment, now, he who keeps 

639
00:50:37,900 --> 00:50:41,500
his Commandments abides in him, 
and he in him. 

640
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:45,800
And by this, we know that he 
abides, in Us by the spirit, 

641
00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:49,000
whom he has given us. 
Amen. 

642
00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:54,300
So this has to be applied in, 
not just word, but in action and

643
00:50:54,300 --> 00:51:03,000
deeds, second John. 1536 says 
this and now I beg you lady, 

644
00:51:03,500 --> 00:51:08,300
lady lady who don't know how to 
pronounce her name. 

645
00:51:08,900 --> 00:51:14,300
Not as if I were issuing a new 
charge injection or command but 

646
00:51:14,300 --> 00:51:19,500
simply recalling to your mind, 
the one we have had from the 

647
00:51:19,500 --> 00:51:22,900
beginning that we love one 
another. 

648
00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:26,200
This is all, I'm doing is simply
recalling to you. 

649
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:32,100
His scripture actually says love
looks like and how we are to 

650
00:51:32,100 --> 00:51:35,600
apply it to our life. 
It says the one who you heard 

651
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:39,000
from the beginning that we love 
one another and what this love 

652
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:45,900
consists in is this that we live
and walk in accordance with and 

653
00:51:45,900 --> 00:51:50,700
are Guided by his Commandments, 
his orders, his ordinances, his 

654
00:51:50,700 --> 00:51:55,200
precepts and teaching this is 
the Commandment as you have 

655
00:51:55,200 --> 00:52:00,900
heard from the The beginning 
that you continue to walk in 

656
00:52:00,900 --> 00:52:05,300
love, Guided by it, and 
following it. 

657
00:52:06,900 --> 00:52:13,600
One translation says pursuing 
it, we should be pursuing. 

658
00:52:13,700 --> 00:52:19,300
Love along this journey being 
motivated, only to be a 

659
00:52:19,300 --> 00:52:24,600
demonstration of truly how to 
apply the love of God in our 

660
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:29,000
lives, in our situations, in our
circumstances that are coming up

661
00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:31,800
every day. 
But the only way that's going to

662
00:52:31,808 --> 00:52:37,300
happen is by the spirit and the 
word That's a body than the word

663
00:52:37,300 --> 00:52:41,400
and us being led by the spirit. 
Amen. 

664
00:52:41,900 --> 00:52:47,600
And us not just talking about it
hearing it but actually doing it

665
00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:54,300
actually doing it actually 
applying the love of God, Amen. 

666
00:52:54,800 --> 00:53:00,000
Now let's look at what Luke the 
New Testament shows us. 

667
00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:06,300
Concerning a situation here that
he says, what love looks like. 

668
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:15,600
Luke chapter 6 and I'm going to 
read basically just for 

669
00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:20,500
scriptures but it's going to be 
in contacts from verses. 27 to 

670
00:53:20,500 --> 00:53:22,500
35. 
Okay. 

671
00:53:22,700 --> 00:53:29,300
So Luke 6:27 says this but I say
to you who hear love your 

672
00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:37,200
enemies and do good to those who
hate you Love your enemies and 

673
00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:42,900
do good to those who hate you. 
See what I'm saying. 

674
00:53:42,900 --> 00:53:48,000
It doesn't just come natural. 
That's not our first natural 

675
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:52,200
response, but this is how the 
kingdom operates. 

676
00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:58,500
This is the Royal law, amen. 
This is how we are to love. 

677
00:53:58,500 --> 00:54:05,500
We are to love our enemies and 
do good to those who hate us. 

678
00:54:05,700 --> 00:54:13,700
There have been many people that
have done us wrong and one way 

679
00:54:13,700 --> 00:54:17,200
we do good to them is send them.
Some, some money. 

680
00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:28,000
Because Money Talks. 
Doesn't it Money Talks? 

681
00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:32,900
Just do to them. 
Right. 

682
00:54:34,300 --> 00:54:38,500
Did you want to in the natural? 
No. 

683
00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:43,600
But do you do it? 
Yes, as the Holy Spirit leads 

684
00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:47,000
and guides you. 
Right, somebody might do you 

685
00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:50,000
wrong, what about your neighbor 
that called called you in from 

686
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:59,800
your HOA, about your whatever, 
you know, your grass, being one 

687
00:54:59,800 --> 00:55:03,100
inch above the normal protocol, 
or whatever? 

688
00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:07,400
And you know that neighbor, you 
know who it is. 

689
00:55:09,300 --> 00:55:11,800
And you want to go over there 
and say, what's your problem? 

690
00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:17,000
But instead go bake some cookies
and take it to him. 

691
00:55:21,900 --> 00:55:30,000
Being nice goes a long way. 
Be nice goes a long way, no 

692
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:35,100
matter what they do to, you just
being nice, I'm just not going 

693
00:55:35,100 --> 00:55:39,100
to let them get up underneath my
skin, right? 

694
00:55:39,100 --> 00:55:42,500
Just be nice. 
Just go do something the 

695
00:55:42,500 --> 00:55:45,600
unexpectedly go over there and 
ask them. 

696
00:55:45,800 --> 00:55:49,500
Hey, I know you called into the 
HOA about my grass. 

697
00:55:49,500 --> 00:55:51,300
So I'm out here. 
Mowing my grass. 

698
00:55:51,300 --> 00:55:59,300
Can I borrow yours too? 
Right. 

699
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:05,500
Boy, that really get them. 
Hallelujah. 

700
00:56:05,600 --> 00:56:08,400
Just being nice. 
Just thought I would do unto my 

701
00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:13,700
neighbor as I'm due unto myself 
right Loop 632. 

702
00:56:13,700 --> 00:56:17,100
If you love those who love you, 
this is the point if you love 

703
00:56:17,100 --> 00:56:20,100
those who love you and tell you 
how awesome you are, and you 

704
00:56:20,100 --> 00:56:22,900
can't ever take a Critic. 
Woo. 

705
00:56:25,600 --> 00:56:28,400
You got problems. 
Big ones. 

706
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:32,300
You're a people pleaser and you 
need their attention and 

707
00:56:32,300 --> 00:56:37,400
affirmation. 
So if you love those who love 

708
00:56:37,400 --> 00:56:41,000
you, what credit is to you for 
even Sinners, love those who 

709
00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:47,000
love them. 
And then verse 35, it says, but 

710
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:51,400
love your enemies and do good 
and lend expecting, nothing in 

711
00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:57,200
return, and your reward will be 
great and you will be the sons 

712
00:56:57,200 --> 00:57:01,300
of the most high. 
For he himself is kind to 

713
00:57:01,300 --> 00:57:05,400
ungrateful and evil men. 
Wow. 

714
00:57:08,300 --> 00:57:13,400
Wow. 
You know how he's so kind to 

715
00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:20,500
ungrateful and evil men because 
he still sent his son to redeem.

716
00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:25,200
To redeem. 
Hallelujah. 

717
00:57:26,900 --> 00:57:31,400
So the next point is is if we're
going to walk in the god, kind 

718
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:33,900
of love the way. 
The Bible says, we are going to 

719
00:57:33,900 --> 00:57:37,500
have to not take our own 
Revenge. 

720
00:57:37,500 --> 00:57:41,100
I tapped into a little bit that 
earlier but we don't have to 

721
00:57:41,100 --> 00:57:45,500
defend ourselves and we don't 
have to take revenge no matter 

722
00:57:45,500 --> 00:57:49,100
what happens, no matter what 
people say, no matter what comes

723
00:57:49,100 --> 00:57:53,100
our way, whatever the situation 
is, you don't have to be one 

724
00:57:53,100 --> 00:57:57,200
trying to defend yourself if you
know, Your heart doesn't condemn

725
00:57:57,200 --> 00:58:01,100
you and your motives have been 
pure, right? 

726
00:58:01,100 --> 00:58:05,900
So this is old cut, old, 
Covenant, and the Old Testament.

727
00:58:05,900 --> 00:58:11,700
Leviticus 19:18 says this, you 
shall not take revenge or bear, 

728
00:58:11,700 --> 00:58:17,800
any grudge against the sons of 
your people, but you shall love 

729
00:58:17,800 --> 00:58:21,600
your neighbor as yourself. 
I am the Lord. 

730
00:58:21,600 --> 00:58:25,600
You should not have a great. 
You don't have a right as a 

731
00:58:26,100 --> 00:58:31,200
Child of God to have a grudge 
against anyone. 

732
00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:40,500
But I know there's some grudges.
You don't have a right to hold 

733
00:58:40,500 --> 00:58:46,500
that Grudge. 
You are to apply the love of 

734
00:58:46,500 --> 00:58:48,900
God. 
The way that God says, we are to

735
00:58:48,900 --> 00:58:55,600
apply it and Let It Go and Let 
It Go Romans 12. 9, through 10, 

736
00:58:55,600 --> 00:58:58,900
says this. 
Let Your Love be sincere. 

737
00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:05,200
A real thing hate, what is evil?
Loathe all ungodliness turn in 

738
00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:10,700
horror from wickedness, but hold
fast to that which is good, love

739
00:59:10,700 --> 00:59:12,600
one another with brotherly 
affection. 

740
00:59:12,800 --> 00:59:17,600
As as members of One family, 
given precedence and showing 

741
00:59:17,600 --> 00:59:20,100
honor to one. 
Another bless those who 

742
00:59:20,100 --> 00:59:26,200
persecute you who are cruel in 
their attitude towards you bless

743
00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:31,600
and do not curse them Rejoice 
with those who Rejoice sharing 

744
00:59:31,600 --> 00:59:35,600
and others Joy, weep with those 
who weep sharing others grief 

745
00:59:35,700 --> 00:59:37,700
live in harmony with one 
another. 

746
00:59:37,700 --> 00:59:42,500
Do not be haughty. 
Snobbish, high-minded exclusive,

747
00:59:42,500 --> 00:59:49,800
but But readily adjust yourself.
Make an adjustment. 

748
00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:57,000
Make an adjustment, adjust 
yourself to people, things and 

749
00:59:57,000 --> 01:00:01,300
give yourselves to Humble tasks 
and never overestimate yourself 

750
01:00:01,300 --> 01:00:05,400
or be wise in your own conceits 
repay. 

751
01:00:05,400 --> 01:00:10,900
No one evil for evil but take 
thought for what is honest and 

752
01:00:10,900 --> 01:00:16,300
proper and Noble aiming to be 
above reproach in the sight of 

753
01:00:16,300 --> 01:00:19,900
everyone. 
That is bringing peace Harmony, 

754
01:00:19,900 --> 01:00:24,000
and Silly ation to the body of 
Christ. 

755
01:00:24,100 --> 01:00:30,600
We are going to make sure that 
we aim and are above reproach 

756
01:00:31,500 --> 01:00:41,900
righteous in these situations. 
If possible, as far as it 

757
01:00:41,900 --> 01:00:45,000
depends on you live at peace 
with everyone. 

758
01:00:48,100 --> 01:00:52,600
Live at peace with everyone. 
Doesn't matter what anybody's 

759
01:00:52,600 --> 01:00:58,300
done you can be at peace, if 
your heart is pure, you forgive 

760
01:00:58,300 --> 01:01:03,200
and you've let things go, you 
can be at perfect peace, knowing

761
01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:06,900
that you've applied the love of 
God, the way that he's shown you

762
01:01:06,900 --> 01:01:10,200
to do. 
No matter how other individuals 

763
01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:14,200
are reacting or responding or 
what they continue to do. 

764
01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:18,600
Amen. 
Beloved here it is. 

765
01:01:18,600 --> 01:01:22,800
Never avenge yourselves. 
But leave the way open. 

766
01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:26,800
This is very important because 
if you try to avenge yourself, 

767
01:01:26,800 --> 01:01:30,100
defend yourself, all these other
things, you just going to 

768
01:01:30,100 --> 01:01:34,500
continue to make a mess of the 
situation instead of leaving 

769
01:01:34,500 --> 01:01:38,200
room and a way open for God's 
Wrath for it is rigid. 

770
01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:43,500
Written vengeance is mine? 
I will repay says the Lord, but 

771
01:01:43,500 --> 01:01:45,600
if your enemy is hungry. 
Grief Edom. 

772
01:01:45,700 --> 01:01:48,800
If he's thirsty, give him a 
drink for by doing. 

773
01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:51,900
So you will Heap burning coals 
upon his head. 

774
01:01:51,900 --> 01:01:55,700
Do not. 
Let yourself be overcome by evil

775
01:01:55,700 --> 01:02:02,500
but overcome evil with good. 
If you don't allow God to avenge

776
01:02:02,500 --> 01:02:08,600
you and you try to bring your 
own defense and Vengeance than 

777
01:02:08,600 --> 01:02:10,100
guess. 
What's going to happen? 

778
01:02:10,200 --> 01:02:14,100
You're going to be overcome with
the evil, you're going to be 

779
01:02:14,100 --> 01:02:17,000
playing. 
Right in the devil's territory. 

780
01:02:17,200 --> 01:02:22,400
That's the Trap that he wants 
set for you to get you out of 

781
01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:26,700
love. 
Instead of trusting him and 

782
01:02:26,700 --> 01:02:31,900
doing it his way. 
But he'll have you in a trap 

783
01:02:31,900 --> 01:02:36,100
then because the very thing is 
going to come back upon you that

784
01:02:36,100 --> 01:02:41,500
evil. 
So we must recognize that, the 

785
01:02:41,500 --> 01:02:47,900
next thing is is we must 
forgive, we must forgive, we 

786
01:02:47,900 --> 01:02:53,100
must have in our hearts that 
when things and situations take 

787
01:02:53,100 --> 01:02:55,500
place. 
The first thing we think of as I

788
01:02:55,500 --> 01:03:00,900
forgive them, I forgive them. 
If God forgave them, I can 

789
01:03:00,900 --> 01:03:05,100
forgive them, right? 
If he put his love in me I can 

790
01:03:05,100 --> 01:03:06,700
forgive them. 
I can let it go. 

791
01:03:06,900 --> 01:03:11,200
I can just let it just roll 
right off my back. 

792
01:03:11,200 --> 01:03:16,800
Like a duck in the water, right?
Just let it roll off. 

793
01:03:17,400 --> 01:03:22,900
Nothing has to stick on you. 
No matter what has ever happened

794
01:03:22,900 --> 01:03:26,900
to you your whole entire life. 
No matter who's done you wrong, 

795
01:03:26,900 --> 01:03:29,600
no matter what happened to you 
in your life, no matter Matter 

796
01:03:29,600 --> 01:03:33,100
who's disappointed, you no 
matter who's talked about about 

797
01:03:33,100 --> 01:03:36,500
you no matter what has ever 
happened in your life. 

798
01:03:38,100 --> 01:03:45,600
You can forgive, you can 
forgive, you must forgive, you 

799
01:03:45,600 --> 01:03:53,300
must forgive, or you will be 
trapped in that forever as a 

800
01:03:53,300 --> 01:03:59,500
victim to the enemy and never 
walk in the fullness of what God

801
01:03:59,500 --> 01:04:03,700
has for you. 
It will never it will destroy 

802
01:04:03,700 --> 01:04:08,000
your life. 
Unforgiveness will destroy your 

803
01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:13,800
life. 
So we must be people that 

804
01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:19,300
forgive Ephesians 5:1 through to
says there's therefore be 

805
01:04:19,300 --> 01:04:21,700
imitators of. 
God copy him. 

806
01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:26,000
Follow his example as well. 
Beloved children imitate their 

807
01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:30,700
father and walk in love is 
steaming and delighting in one. 

808
01:04:30,700 --> 01:04:34,200
Another as Christ loved us and 
gave himself up for us. 

809
01:04:34,400 --> 01:04:37,800
A slain offering and sacrifice 
to God for you. 

810
01:04:37,800 --> 01:04:43,600
So that you became a sweet 
fragrance to The father, we have

811
01:04:43,600 --> 01:04:48,400
to imitate him in the way that 
he was able to forgive. 

812
01:04:50,700 --> 01:04:55,200
And the way he said his 
scripture forgives people. 

813
01:04:55,900 --> 01:05:01,500
Right? 
Ephesians 4:22 through 232 strip

814
01:05:01,500 --> 01:05:03,700
yourselves of your former 
nature. 

815
01:05:04,100 --> 01:05:09,200
Put off, disregard your old 
unrenewed self, which 

816
01:05:09,200 --> 01:05:14,200
characterized your previous 
manner of life and becomes 

817
01:05:14,200 --> 01:05:18,800
corrupt, through lust and 
desires, that spring forth from 

818
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:24,500
Delusion and constantly be 
renewed in the spirit of your 

819
01:05:24,500 --> 01:05:30,100
mind, having a fresh mental and 
spiritual attitude put on the 

820
01:05:30,100 --> 01:05:36,300
new nature, the regenerated self
created in God's image, Godlike.

821
01:05:36,300 --> 01:05:40,400
And true righteousness and 
Holiness there for rejecting, 

822
01:05:40,600 --> 01:05:45,900
all falsity, and being done. 
Now with it, let everyone 

823
01:05:45,900 --> 01:05:49,900
expressed the truth with his 
neighbor for We Are all parts of

824
01:05:49,900 --> 01:05:52,200
one body and members of one 
another. 

825
01:05:52,200 --> 01:05:57,000
When angry Do not sit in sin, do
not ever. 

826
01:05:57,000 --> 01:06:01,200
Let your wrath your Fury 
indignation. 

827
01:06:01,200 --> 01:06:09,000
Last until the sun goes down We 
must be quick to forgive before 

828
01:06:09,000 --> 01:06:14,100
the end of the night, it ought 
to be settled and resolved and 

829
01:06:14,100 --> 01:06:21,100
forgiveness must be applied. 
Forgiveness must be applied when

830
01:06:21,100 --> 01:06:24,100
okay, where am I at leave. 
No such room. 

831
01:06:24,100 --> 01:06:26,200
Why? 
Because if you let 

832
01:06:26,200 --> 01:06:33,100
unforgiveness, you keep that sin
a part of your life. 

833
01:06:33,100 --> 01:06:35,800
What does he's let? 
You know, you're going to open a

834
01:06:35,808 --> 01:06:39,300
door, you're going to leave room
for the devil. 

835
01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:44,700
It says leave no such room or 
foothold for the devil, give no 

836
01:06:44,700 --> 01:06:47,900
opportunity to him if you don't 
choose. 

837
01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:51,400
Choose to forgive. 
If you stay in anger, if you 

838
01:06:51,400 --> 01:06:56,600
stay in sin about a situation. 
Listen, you are only given a 

839
01:06:56,600 --> 01:07:00,800
foothold for the enemy to 
continue to beat you down. 

840
01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:05,600
And that's what he does. 
He beats you down. 

841
01:07:06,900 --> 01:07:10,700
Get that image. 
He beats you, you do become the 

842
01:07:10,700 --> 01:07:15,600
devil's whipping boy or girl. 
He's whipping you all the time. 

843
01:07:17,200 --> 01:07:23,300
In everything. 
Because you let him have the 

844
01:07:23,300 --> 01:07:28,600
opportunity because you didn't 
deal with your anger, let the 

845
01:07:28,600 --> 01:07:29,700
thief steal. 
No more. 

846
01:07:29,700 --> 01:07:32,400
He's letting you know, that's 
why things keep getting 

847
01:07:32,700 --> 01:07:35,000
everything. 
Just keeps getting stuck stole 

848
01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:40,400
from you. 
Your joy, come on your piece, 

849
01:07:41,100 --> 01:07:46,500
everything your finances, 
everything, your health gets get

850
01:07:46,500 --> 01:07:50,300
stole from you because he's got 
a foothold. 

851
01:07:51,600 --> 01:08:01,500
Hallelujah, but rather let him 
Be injurious industrious. 

852
01:08:02,700 --> 01:08:06,900
Making an honest living with his
own hand so that he may be able 

853
01:08:06,900 --> 01:08:12,400
to give to those in need, let no
foul or polluting language 

854
01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:17,300
meaning you don't have a right 
to cuss somebody out when you 

855
01:08:17,300 --> 01:08:25,000
get angry. 
As a Believer, using foul 

856
01:08:25,000 --> 01:08:27,899
polluted. 
You know, I had to always bring 

857
01:08:27,899 --> 01:08:31,399
the scripture to teenagers 
because they are. 

858
01:08:31,399 --> 01:08:35,100
That's a notic Us in the Bible. 
Yes, it does. 

859
01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:45,800
Right foul polluting language, 
that's what that is nor evil 

860
01:08:45,800 --> 01:08:50,899
word nor unwholesome or 
worthless talk ever come out of 

861
01:08:50,899 --> 01:08:53,899
your mouth. 
Wow. 

862
01:08:54,200 --> 01:08:57,500
Worthless talk man. 
There's so much worthless talk 

863
01:08:57,500 --> 01:09:02,399
flying everywhere today, 
worthless. 

864
01:09:05,200 --> 01:09:11,300
So he goes on to say, but only 
such speech as is too good and 

865
01:09:11,300 --> 01:09:16,399
beneficial to the spiritual 
progress as of others as is 

866
01:09:16,399 --> 01:09:19,899
fitting to the need and the 
occasion that it may be a 

867
01:09:19,899 --> 01:09:24,500
blessing and give Grace God's 
favor to those who hear it. 

868
01:09:26,500 --> 01:09:30,200
Again here's the connection. 
Make the connection is embedded,

869
01:09:30,200 --> 01:09:32,100
right? 
In between, do not grieve. 

870
01:09:32,100 --> 01:09:36,100
The Holy Spirit. 
When you do these actions, you 

871
01:09:36,100 --> 01:09:41,899
are grieving the Holy Spirit on 
the inside of you, you're 

872
01:09:41,899 --> 01:09:45,300
grieving the spirit. 
When you're doing all of these 

873
01:09:45,700 --> 01:09:48,800
actions, don't grieve the spirit
of God. 

874
01:09:48,800 --> 01:09:52,200
Do not offend or vax or satin 
him. 

875
01:09:52,300 --> 01:09:54,900
Did you know that the Holy 
Spirit could be offended? 

876
01:09:56,000 --> 01:10:01,800
Yes, and it had to do right off 
coming of a polluted mouth. 

877
01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:08,900
By whom you were sealed Mark 
branded as God's Own secured for

878
01:10:08,900 --> 01:10:12,100
the day of redemption of final 
Deliverance, through Christ from

879
01:10:12,100 --> 01:10:14,200
the evil and consequences of 
sin. 

880
01:10:14,500 --> 01:10:19,000
Let all here it is bitterness 
and diggnation and wrath 

881
01:10:19,000 --> 01:10:23,900
passion, rage bad temper 
resentment anger and animosity 

882
01:10:23,900 --> 01:10:28,200
quarreling brawling clamor 
contention slander. 

883
01:10:28,300 --> 01:10:33,400
Evil speaking abusive or 
Blasphemous language, be 

884
01:10:33,400 --> 01:10:37,300
banished. 
Shhhhht from you with all malice

885
01:10:37,300 --> 01:10:44,000
Spike ill will or baseness of 
any kind and become useful and 

886
01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:47,700
helpful and kind to one another 
tender-hearted compassionate 

887
01:10:47,700 --> 01:10:53,100
understanding loving hearted, 
here it is forgiving one another

888
01:10:53,200 --> 01:10:58,400
readily and freely that means 
you're ready to forgive in the 

889
01:10:58,400 --> 01:11:03,900
midst of these situations is 
that your motive of your heart? 

890
01:11:04,100 --> 01:11:12,900
Art that in every situation, 
blow up argument circumstance 

891
01:11:13,100 --> 01:11:16,600
that anger or whatever could be 
a part of that. 

892
01:11:18,700 --> 01:11:25,300
Is your motive? 
I'm ready to forgive I'm ready 

893
01:11:25,700 --> 01:11:29,200
and freely to forgive as God in 
Christ. 

894
01:11:29,200 --> 01:11:32,300
What forgave you is that our 
motive? 

895
01:11:32,300 --> 01:11:38,900
That is a pure heart of someone 
who wants to actually walk out, 

896
01:11:38,900 --> 01:11:43,700
everyday, applying God's love 
according to what scripture 

897
01:11:43,700 --> 01:11:49,000
says, how we are to apply it not
to holding our opinion about how

898
01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:50,500
God is okay? 
With me? 

899
01:11:50,500 --> 01:11:57,100
Even if I am acting like this, 
Or even if I'm in this 

900
01:11:57,100 --> 01:12:03,700
situation, our number one goal, 
as a Believer with the love of 

901
01:12:03,700 --> 01:12:08,100
God, put in our heart, is that 
we ought to be pressing towards 

902
01:12:08,100 --> 01:12:14,400
forgiveness, reconciliation, 
doing whatever it takes to bring

903
01:12:14,400 --> 01:12:20,800
Harmony to bring peace. 
In those scenarios that we 

904
01:12:20,800 --> 01:12:25,200
encounter with our spouses with 
him, with our co-workers with, 

905
01:12:25,500 --> 01:12:29,700
especially the body of Christ, 
this ought to not even be a 

906
01:12:29,700 --> 01:12:35,900
problem in the household of God.
It ought to not even be a 

907
01:12:35,908 --> 01:12:39,600
problem. 
We ought to be loving each 

908
01:12:39,600 --> 01:12:43,200
other. 
So well and only encountering 

909
01:12:43,500 --> 01:12:46,300
these issues. 
When We are encountering the 

910
01:12:46,300 --> 01:12:53,900
world, we ought to be people 
that are so full because we've 

911
01:12:53,900 --> 01:12:58,600
stayed in a place of loughing. 
The fruit of the love of God to 

912
01:12:58,600 --> 01:13:03,400
just grow so much within our 
hearts that actually Where We 

913
01:13:03,600 --> 01:13:08,200
Said Today the debts and the 
links and the heights Of his 

914
01:13:08,200 --> 01:13:13,500
love is so apart of my being 
that it is only naturally 

915
01:13:13,500 --> 01:13:17,200
Supernatural for me to respond 
in love. 

916
01:13:19,600 --> 01:13:24,300
Is that our first response that 
we're going to walk in love, 

917
01:13:24,300 --> 01:13:27,700
we're going to whatever it 
takes, I'm going to forgive, I'm

918
01:13:27,700 --> 01:13:30,900
gonna do whatever it takes. 
I'm not going to be concerned 

919
01:13:30,900 --> 01:13:34,900
about how this made me feel and 
all these other things. 

920
01:13:34,900 --> 01:13:37,800
Know, my first response is I 
really don't care how I feel. 

921
01:13:37,800 --> 01:13:42,600
I'm just going to walk in love. 
Ed you know you can get there, 

922
01:13:43,500 --> 01:13:47,600
you can live in that. 
That's what I call living in the

923
01:13:47,600 --> 01:13:54,300
Overflow of his love living in 
the Overflow of how he tells us,

924
01:13:54,300 --> 01:13:57,900
we ought to be living and 
walking and Abiding and 

925
01:13:57,900 --> 01:14:01,000
operating every day in our life.
Amen. 

926
01:14:01,600 --> 01:14:06,300
Hallelujah. 
Because love, never fails. 

927
01:14:06,800 --> 01:14:12,100
And if we choose to actually 
walk according to scripture and 

928
01:14:12,100 --> 01:14:17,600
applying the word of God in our 
lives, you can be assured that 

929
01:14:17,600 --> 01:14:24,600
you will have Victory. 
You will walk in Victory and and

930
01:14:24,600 --> 01:14:27,100
I'm going to tell you he will 
prove. 

931
01:14:27,100 --> 01:14:30,600
There will be proof in the 
pudding that you walk in love. 

932
01:14:31,800 --> 01:14:37,600
People won't have to guess. 
They won't have to guess whether

933
01:14:37,600 --> 01:14:40,100
or not when you encountered a 
situation. 

934
01:14:40,100 --> 01:14:43,300
How you responded, they'll know 
how you responded. 

935
01:14:44,900 --> 01:14:49,500
They'll know it, because they'll
see the evidence of your life 

936
01:14:49,500 --> 01:14:53,400
unfolding before their eyes that
in every circumstance. 

937
01:14:53,400 --> 01:14:56,700
In every situation, you just 
apply, love you, forgive you. 

938
01:14:56,800 --> 01:14:58,800
No matter what. 
Amen. 

939
01:14:59,200 --> 01:15:05,500
Hallelujah glory to God. 
So let that be let that be our 

940
01:15:05,700 --> 01:15:12,600
desire, our intense desire Amen.
That we look at what God says 

941
01:15:12,600 --> 01:15:18,300
love is and then every from 
here, on out when we encounter a

942
01:15:18,300 --> 01:15:24,800
situation we're going to think 
back to how he says love should 

943
01:15:24,800 --> 01:15:27,800
be operating and flowing in the 
situation. 

944
