  Speaker 1: a man, and in these days in which we live,
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: in a time in which a man, many are departing
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: from the faith, as the Apostle Paul, a man warned
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: of what happened spirits, speaking expressly that someone would depart
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: from the faith given heed to seducing spirits and doctrines
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: of devils. Amen. So we live in a precarious time,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: challenging time, but nevertheless Foundation of God stands sure having
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: this deal. The Bible says, the Lord knows them that
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: are his and everyone who names the name of crisis
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: to depart from iniquity. All right, today, we're going to
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: continue in First Corinthian chapter number thirteen, So if you
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: have your Bibles, please go with us. Amen, And before
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: we begin, as always, we want to amen a man
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: ask the Lord's presents and blessings upon each and every one. Father, again,
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: we thank you for again this glorious, beautiful, splendid, magnificent
• 1:52

• 1:55
  Speaker 1: breath of life and to be a particer of this
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: great salvation. Lord. We pray today that somewhere somebody's eyes
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: will be open, ears or tuned heart changed, Oh God,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: to come to know that you are the truth of
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: living God, and that Jesus the Christ is the only
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: way Amen of salvation. God, be glorified in your people today,
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: be glorified in the earth, as you get the glory
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: out of our lives and all that we say and do.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: In Jesus name, we praying if thanks, amen and amen.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: All right again. Chapter thirteen of the First Letter of
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: the Apostle Paul to the Corinthian Church is where we're
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: going to be today. But before we go there, We're
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: going to turn the page back just a bit to
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: the ending of chapter number twelve, because the Apostle Paul
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: has been talking about the gifts of the Spirit, gifts
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: that are in operation in church, and is very important
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: for us Amen again to understand the application of the gifts,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: the use of the gifts. That the gifts are not
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: for our own self gratification, self exaltation. They are for
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: the entirety of the Body, for the entirety of the
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: Body of Christ to be edified, exalted, lifted up. Amen.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: And no part of the body is standing alone. No
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: part of the body can survive without the other parts
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: of the body. They are all necessary. And the Apostle Paul,
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: of course, in chapter twelve, which we covered in our
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: previous session, has emphasized greatly, Amen, the necessity of each
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: and every part of the body Amen in the Church
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: of Jesus Christ. And so we don't want to have
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: schism in the body. We don't need divisions. We are
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: to be a unified body of Christ. And even though
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: we are differing in the individual members, we have differences
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: and diversity, yet one body, Amen, with one mission. By
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: the way that Christ has given to the Church so
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: when we're talking about these gifts, the Apostle in between
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: chapters twelve and fourteen kind of gives to us what
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: we will call the more excellent way, which he called
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: the more excellent way. By the way, that's what we're
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: going to be talking about today. And so what we
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: want to emphasize is the church, the church, instead of
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: us a man reveling in the gifts of the spirit,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: as it were, especially in a negative bat or a
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: way that calls it schism in the body, divisions in
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: the body. We ought to be attentive, and we ought
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: to give the more earnest heed a man to the
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: far more excellent way that we're going to be again
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: discussing today. This is precisely what the Apostle Paul is
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: showing the Corinthian Church a man, as he clarifies the
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: importance of unity in the body instead of schism and division, which,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: by the way, the devil he loves that he loves it.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: So back to well for just a moment, we're just
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: going to read a few verses at the end of
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: the chapter. Beginning the verse number twenty seven, the Apostle
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: Paul again says we are the body of Christ. We
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: are the body of Christ and members individually. And God
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: has appointed these in the church, first apostles, second prophets,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: third teachers, after that, miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations,
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: varieties of tongues. Are all apostles, are all prophets? Are
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: all teachers? Are all workers of miracles? Do all have
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: But listen what he says, but earnestly desired gifts. And
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: yet this is our transition to chapter thirteen. And yet
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: he says, I show you a more excellent way. Now
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: what is this more excellent way? And of course again
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: this is what we're going to be examining today, the
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: more excellent or the most excellent way, which is of
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: course love. And we are to love God, and we
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: are to love one another. On these two commandments a man.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: The Bible is clear about this. Jesus himself is a man.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: The teachings of the apostles a man. It's clear about this.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: On these two hang all of the law and the prophets,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: all of the law of God is fulfilled in love,
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Love God, love your neighbor. This is unequivocally the truest
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: sign of being a disciple, a true disciple of Christ.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: And it was by the way Christ Jesus himself who
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: said this. Amen. By this shall all men know that
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: you are My disciples. Indeed, by the love that you
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: have one for another. Amen. So love, love, Love. This
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: is what the apostle Paul is going to infaty size,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: heymen in this chapter number thirteen, verse number one, if again,
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: if you everybody will to follow along with us. First Corinthians,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: Chapter thirteen, beginning the verse number one, though I speak
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: with the tongues of men and of angels, and have
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: not charity, I am become as sounding brass or a
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: tinkling symbol. And though I have the gift, the gift
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: of prophecy, understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: I have all faith so that I could remove mountains,
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: and have not charity, the apostle says, I am nothing.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Now again, let me pause here, because the most excellent
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: way is the way of love. It is what the
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: Way of God is all about. The Way of God
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: is all about love. And as a matter of fact,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: the Bible is clear about this. The Gospel of John,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: God himself is love. Amen. And we are perfected, and
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: we are to be perfected in the love of God.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: And because of the love of God, He is the
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: very embodiment of love. Amen. And he loved us while
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: we were in our waywardness, while we were obstinate. Amen.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: The Bible says, he demonstrated his love towards us while
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: we were yet sinners. Amen. Christ dying for us. The
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: greater sacrifice, greater love has no man. In this. Jesus said,
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: the man would lay down his life for his friends,
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: and he laid down his life for us, as we
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: were enemies, while we were enemies of God. The Bible says,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: this is how we're born. We're born in sin, shaping
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: in iniquity. Amen. And we are by nature. By nature,
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: we are enemies of God, and we are haters of God.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: But God commended his love toward us, Amen. Demonstrated his
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: love toward us. And this is the whole way of
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: what God's A man greatness is all about his humility. Again,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: Jesus humbled himself and became obedient unto death, demonstrating his
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: love toward us. A man sacrificing himself. Jesus did sacrificing
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: himself a man to pay the sin debt that we
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: owe that we could not pay. Amen, And that it
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: was on our account. And the Bible says, Paul writes
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: about this a man I believe to the Colossian Church,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: he took it out of the way, He nailed it
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: to the cross, the handwriting of ordinances that was against us,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: All of the debt that we owed a man was
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: placed on Jesus, and his righteousness was transferred to us,
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: as it were. So this is a man. The love
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: that Paul is speaking about here, the same kind of
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: love he says that we even if he said, if
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: I if I give all of my goods to feed
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: the poor, if I give my body to be burned,
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: and if I don't have the charity, if I don't
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: have that same kind of love, Amen, it will profit
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: me nothing. I can have the gift of prophecy, it
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: will not profit me. I can understand all mysteries, it
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: will not profit me. I can have all knowledge and
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: all faith, the faith, the kind of faith that Jesus
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: said that can move mountains. And if I don't have
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: the love of God, Amen. And even when we preach
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: and teach in prophecy as it were. Amen. We are
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: to speak the truth in love. Amen. And we are
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: to amen, share our knowledge and exercise our faith in love. Amen.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: This is the more excellent way. Verse number four, the
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: Bible says, charity that is love, and I'm reading from
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: the King James version, charity, love and action. Amen. Suffereth long,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: who help us Jesus, and is kind Charity envi it
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: not charity vaunteth not itself is not puffed puffed up. Brother.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Verse five says, charity doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: not her own is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Look at all of these attributes about love, real love,
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: and by the way, all of this we can see
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: in Jesus. We see all of this in Jesus. He
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: suffered long, he beared long with us, He was kind,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: he was compassionate, and is not just was but I'm
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: speaking of while he was here during his earthly ministry. Kindness.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: By the way, the fruit of the spirit, the Bible says,
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: is love, joy, peace, and kindness and long suffering. All
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: of that the fruit of the spirit. It begins as
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: it were, and you can't separate them. It is the fruit,
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: not the fruits, the fruit the attributes of the spirit, love, joy, peace,
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: a man, gentleness, meekness, faith, all of that. And Jesus
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: exemplified this a man far more than any of us
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: are able to do, especially and particularly when we don't
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: have a man, the spirit of the living God and
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: the love of God, a man in us. And so
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: we can have all of these gifts, or show all
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: of these gifts, or you know, display all of these gifts,
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: as it were. But if it's not done in love,
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: if it's not from a heart of love, we are
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: no profit, we have no benefit. And this is how
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: again we can have schism and division and malice and
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: so forth jealousy in the church. A man but charity
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: suffers long. Charity is kind. Charity does not envy. Charity
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: a man does not lift itself up, does not seek
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: self exaltation. A man charity is not toufed up. And
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: this is what's happening in the Corinthian Church, by the way,
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: and the exercising of these gifts, Amen, people were a
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: man seeking to be seen and heard and exalted and
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: lifted up. And Paul says verse number five, charity does
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: not behave itself unseemly. Amen. And it does not seek
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: her own in other words, her own benefit. It's not
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: for me, it's not about me. Amen. Charity is not
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: easily provoked. Amen. And you know, we know we can again.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: Look at the ministry of Jesus. Amen, how they over
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: and over again sought to provoke him, chided him. Even
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: at the point of his death, when he was hanging
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: on the cross, they were still chiding him, provoking him,
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: seeking to provoke him. Brother and charity, the Bible says,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: think it no evil. We don't dwell on evil. We
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: don't Verse number six. Look, look what the Bible says
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: were real. Love does not rejoice in iniquity, even with
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: our enemies. We don't take pleasure. We don't rejoice. We don't.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: We don't revel in wickedness and evil and iniquity. Amen.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: But we rejoice rather in the truth. Burreth all things, believes,
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: all things, hopes, all things, endures, all things again through
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: the spirit, the fruit of the Spirit, long suffering. Amen. Charity.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: Look at version of eight. Never fails. Love has the
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: love of God. It will never fail. Amen. Whether there
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: be prophecies, they shall fail, whether there be tongs, they
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: shall cease. Whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: For we know in part, Paul says, and we prophesy
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: in part. But when that which is perfect is come,
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: then that which is in part shall be done away. Amen.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: So Paul says, Listen, when I was a child, I
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: spake as a child, I understood as a child, I
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: thought as a child. But when I became a man,
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: I put away childish things. And that's how we are
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: to be. We are to grow up in him. And
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: there there's one occasion where Paul, the apostle, I believe,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: was rot to church. And by this time you ought
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: to be teachers. Amen. You you ought to be teachers.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: We we we we go from faith to faith. Amen.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: And we amen. We are to grow in the knowledge
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: a man of our Lord and saving Jesus Christ. And
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: so we put away Amen, the childish things. We grow
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: uh and go on to perfection, perfecting holiness, as it
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: were the Bible says, in the fear of God, So
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: we put away the things of babes. I mean, we
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: put away the milk, and we began to eat the meat. Amen.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: And and and so again he uses this a man
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: as an example, which we all understand the childish things
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: that we that we did, and the way we understood
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: and the way we saw things. And now some people
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: don't mature. Some people don't grow up. I mean, and
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: I mean in a real world sense, from the natural perspective,
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: there are people that are still very childish in their mind.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: And I'm not talking about somebody that has a mental defect,
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: as it were. I mean, they're just people who just
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: refuse Amen to a man mature as it were. And
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: and and that's very unfortunate. But Paul says, these, a man,
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: are things that we must put away, the childish things. Amen,
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: put away the childish things. And we are to grow up.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: We are to mature a man. We are not to
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: be again self seeking, self exalting, Amen, and looking to
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: a man again by the way, and again, sometimes we
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: have very good intentions, but these are the kinds of
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: things that can cause division, Amen, and schisms in the body.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: And when we make the proper use of the gifts,
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: but we do it in love. Amen. This is why
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: he's emphasizing this. When we do these do these things
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: in love, and when we practice the most excellent way, Amen,
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: that God has given to us, which is the way
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: that He has prepared, which is the way he has
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: walked in, which is the way he is demonstrated. When
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: we do that, Amen, all of the gifts of the
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: spirit and operation in the church a man will flow
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: and benefit and will just, oh my God, bring so much, Amen,
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: a joy and peace and everything that we need to
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: the whole body of Christ. And not just again to
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: this few. Select a man group that is supposedly endowed
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: or specially chosen, only a man to be partakers and
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: recipients of a man. What God has a man provided
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: for the whole of the body. Amen. So again we
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: put away the childish things. We go on to perfection.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: We grow up in Him. Amen. Because the Apostle says,
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: look at verse number twelve. For now we see through
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: a glass darkly. But then face to face. Now I
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: know in part, Amen, But then shall I know even
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: as also I am known. Now listen what he says.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: He closes this with this, and now about it, Faith, hope, charity,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: these three. But the greatest of these is charity. The
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: greatest of these is love, the love of God. The
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: greatest of these is love. Because God is the greatest,
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: He is He himself is the greatest, and of course Amen,
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: he is Love. And so when we talk about the
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: love of God, when we talk about what is great
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: and the greatness of God, Amen, the omnipotence of God,
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: the omniscience of God, the almighty power of God. Amen.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: Love will never cease because God will never cease. Amen.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: That's just very simple. A man simplistically said and should
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: be understood that love will never cease because God will
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: never sees. God is love and we and love cannot
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: be done away with it again, even though what we
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: have in our world today and what we're dealing with
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: our world today, the love of many growing cold as
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: it were, and this was prophesied by Jesus. Have the
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: love of many wax cold love will never die. Real love.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: I'm talking about real love. And that's why it is
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: so important. It is so important for us as the
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: people of God. And again, let me re emphasize what
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: Jesus said as far as the discipleship. By this shall
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: all men know that you are My disciples. Indeed, by
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: what the love, the love that you have, I mean,
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: everything is about love, and I'm talking about true love.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: I'm not talking about words because We don't love only
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: in word. Amen. If you see your brother in need? Amen.
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: The apostle John Wrotes wrote to the Church rights to
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: the Church, a man, if you see your brother in
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: need and you shut up your bowels of compassion from him,
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: John says, how the love of God in you? We
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: don't love in word only, but we love indeed in
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: our actions. Amen. God demonstrates that his love. And we
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: are to demonstrate our love. Amen, not only to God,
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: but toward one another. How can you love God? The
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: same apostle John wrote, how can you say that you
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: love God? How can anyone say that they love God
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: and don't love their Amen. Brother, it's right here. You
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: can't say that you love God that you have not seen,
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: whom you have not seen, and you amen, don't love
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: your brother whom you see every day. Amen. Love Amen
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: begins Amen here Amen. And we if we want to
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: say that we love God. Amen. If we're going to
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: say that we love God, we have to say, we
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: have to show, we have to demonstrate our love for
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: one another. Jesus is going to separate the sheep from
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: the goats, and he's going to say as much as
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: you did it unto these, the least of my brother,
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: and you, when you show love, when you show compassion,
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: when you show kindness, when you show mercy to the
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: least of these, my brother, you did it to me
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: for me. Amen. As it were, love will never cease
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: because again, God will never cease to be a man.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: He is from everlasting to everlasting, is the eternal, self
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: existing God. His way is love. He is love. Amen.
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: And he loved us again, and he keeps us in
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: his love. It is by his love that we are kept. Amen.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: We're kept in the love of God. Amen. Again, he said,
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: I've loved you with an everlasting love. Amen. And again,
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: even though we're in a world that is hostile, Amen
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: to the love of God, who are resisting the love
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: of God, It still will never cease a man. God's
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: love a man is so great that even the most
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: obstinate of sinners can be have been, and it's certainly
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: been demonstrated converted Amen, by the power of this love.
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: May we as His people, May we please hopefully prayerfully.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: Let us all a man pray, Amen, and seek and
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: search out in our own hearts and come to this
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: a man realization understanding a man that a man It
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: is the love of God that we ourselves experience, that
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: we ourselves are walking in a man that is going
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: to a man, demonstrate to all men that we are
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: the true disciples, that we are the Church of the
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: Living God, and that a man we can be difference
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: makers to salt the light. A man that city a
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: man that Jesus talked about now about faith, hope, and love.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: These three, but the greatest of these is love. Love
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: is the more is the most excellent way that the
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: apostle Paul again shows to the church a man. But
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: Jesus himself is the one who demonstrated it most of all.
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: Father again, help us, help us Lord, to love one another,
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: to love you more. Never forget that you are our
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: first love. We love you because you first loved us,
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: and we are to love one another. God be glorified
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: in us. In Jesus' name, we pray Amen and me amen.
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: All right, God bless you everyone in Jesus' name.
