Msg: SHOW THEM LOVE
I recall reading from the bible reference 1Cor 13:13, the bible makes reference to love say this 3 things abide in us 1) Faith 2) Hope 3) LOVE. Pointing out that Love is the greatest of all.
And it is for this reason that God sent his only begotten son on to this world to die on the cross for you and me. Listen to the story of the good Samaritan, in the gospel according to Luke, a man was beaten, battered and he lied helpless and a brother passed by saw him and said nothing, a second brethren passed looking and said I told you that your sinful life will lead to your early grave. I have preached and am tiered of you not listening. Failing to act love by offering first aid.
A third person came saw this person took him to the hospital. He showed love and treated the man from his pain. Now let's look at this three behaviors.
The injured man represent one whom lived happily and progressively. He stumbled on hard times and everything went down. His finance was broken, his business crumbled, his marriage was suffering, everything went down.
A fellow business partner saw it passed and said nothing. Not know what was happening being sceptical it was pay back from the kingdom of darkness.
A fellow Christian whom was always preaching to the guy, came saw him and refused to help. What a piety?
When a believer came saw the man he had compassion recalled what the bible describes as true love, in 1 Cor 13:13. Then he immediately took this man. Prayed for his salvation, introduced Jesus to his life. Got him a job some where, where he could work and start life all over. He nurtured him as a baby Christian and showed him how Christ love him. What else?
Please love your brethren.
Love them all... Show them LOVE.
