LOVE MESSAGE  part 1

1 John 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
1 John 4:8
He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

What’s Love Got To Do With It?

Nothing; the scripture has said that love is of God, and in order to have love you must have God.  That means there is no love in the world because you must have God to have love.
The love of God is not sin, it is not sinful, and it is not evil.  One of the most damaging beliefs in the church world is the belief you are going to heaven when you die. Believing you are going to heaven when you die is what caused those hijackers to commit suicide; it is sin to commit suicide.
The Bible teaches a resurrection, not going to heaven when you die.  The love of God will never teach you to commit suicide, and the love of God is not going to tell you that you are going to heaven when you die.  It is the flesh that tells you this.

What is in the world is the will of the flesh. And the will of the flesh is very demanding, having influence and power to please itself, without any respect for anything else.

What’s Love Got To Do With It?

What does love have to do with sex, sexuality, and courtship?  Nothing - because the love of God has no fleshly feelings and desires.  The love of God is not going to help you find a husband or boyfriend or wife.

The Love Of God Cannot Be Tempted By The Flesh
And The Love Of God Is Not Attracted To The Flesh

You could not tempt love even if you tried, because love is not attracted by temptation, love is not attracted by good looks.

The Purpose Of Love Is To Love God

Love has been misdefined in the world.  We must be born of the love of God to have love.  Love is of God, and everyone that loveth is born of God.  Love is not of the flesh, therefore the flesh does not have access to love.   It is proof by our suffering that love has nothing to do with the flesh.  We wouldn’t have broken hearts, disappointment, let downs, mistreatment, rejection, racism if love was in the world.  Love is only in Christ Jesus, it is not in the world, neither in the flesh.  The world calls love, everything that is good to the flesh.

 We Are That Flesh

We are that flesh crying “please me,” and when the flesh is not pleased, we are not happy. Love does not ask to be pleased, love seeks to please others.

Principles Of The Code Of Love

Compassion, affection, kindness, tenderness, respective,  sympathy for others, tenderness, behaving kindly, caring, receptive, being considerate and thoughtful.

Love Of The Flesh

We call everything love that is good to the flesh.  Good food and entertainment bring joy to the flesh, this we love.  A poll was taken in Britain and 40% of men and woman said they had rather die early than to give up the will of the flesh, good food, and their lifestyle.

 Love Of The Flesh

We are that flesh, and we want the same attention that love gets, we want honor, we want attention, we want to look good, we want to be favored.   We do not want to be neglected, we want to be loved.

Being Born Of The Love Of God

The love of God asks you to give love without wanting love back.  The will of the flesh is very demanding.  The flesh only loves itself, the desires of the flesh keep you busy, making requests to your mind and thinking, and making demands, keeping you working to please the flesh.

The Love Of God Is Not Sinful

The love of God is not fleshly. Love is a spirit and it has no fleshly connotation, it only has one meaning, and can only love one thing, therefore it cannot express itself though fleshly feelings and lusts.  What does love have to do with sin?  Fleshly love, which is of the world, is everything that is sinful.   This is not the love of God, or should I say, this is not love.  The love of God is not evil and is not sinful.  The world defines love in sexual terms, and feelings and desires.

Fleshly Love Does Not Care About A Broken Heart

Fleshly love does not care if your heart gets broken.  That’s why it’s so easy for the flesh to break your heart. It has no feelings for your heart; it does not know kindness or consideration.  Only the love of God can sympathize with a broken heart. The love of God cannot hurt you. The love of God cannot mistreat you, because the love of God is not feeling; it is a spiritual expression.

 

Satan Tried To Tempt Jesus With The Flesh

Jesus could not be tempted with the things of the world because the love in him could not love the world.

Matthew 4:8-10 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;
9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.

Now These Things Can Only Be Loved By The Flesh

10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

The Love Of God Is Not Flesh

1 John 4:9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

God’s Spirit Of Love Expresses The Principles Of Love

1 John 4:10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

Propitiation means the love of God makes peace.  The love of God brings disputing sides together. The love of God reconciles.

Fleshly Love Expresses Lust

Lust has no feelings of affection.   Where courtship and sex and lust are concerned, what does love have to do with it.

Galatians 5:16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
1 John 2:16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

Thou Shall Not Covet

There is a commandment against fleshly love, which is sin.  Fleshly love will love anything, and anybody, your wife, your husband, your house, your car, your dog.

Exodus 20:17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.

The Fruit Of The Spirit Of God Expresses God’s Love

The principles of love are the same as the fruits of the spirit; the fruit of the spirit are the principles of the love of God. God’s love has principles.  The fruits of the spirit are the principles of the love of God

Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance
