“LET CHRIST-LIKE LOVE BE THE HALLMARK OF YOUR FAITH!”
Saints of God Most High, hear God’s word for you today:
“This is my command: that you keep on loving each other just as I have loved you. No one has greater love than a person who lays down his life for his friends. You are my friends, if you do what I command you.” (John 15:12-14)
Adonai Yeshua, Jesus Christ, the Messiah declared: This is My commandment: that you love one another just as I have loved you. No one has greater love, and no one has shown stronger affection than to lay down and give up his own life for his friends. You are My friends if you keep on doing the things which I command you to do.
Let us consider our Lord Jesus, who started His earthly ministry at the age of thirty. And in just three and a half years, He finished it.
Yet, since that time, a day has never gone by without friends or foes mentioning His name. Since that time, the force of His personality and the greatness of His sacrifice have never ceased to astound the whole world.
Songwriters write about Jesus. Preachers preach about Jesus. Teachers teach about Jesus. Evangelists evangelise in Jesus’ name.
Pastors shepherd the flock of Jesus.
Apostles plant churches in Jesus’ name.
Prophets prophesy in Jesus’ name. Statesmen talk about the life of Jesus.
All people appreciate Him because of His love for mankind. Yet, He achieved all that in so short a time.
Therefore, it does not matter how long one lives but whether or not Christ-like love characterises one’s life.
With love, you will never be forgotten. Your life will make a definite impact on others, as does the life of Christ.
MAY CHRIST-LIKE LOVE SATURATE YOUR LIFE IN JESUS’ MIGHTY NAME, AMEN!
Everybody shout, “PRAISE THE LORD!”
Shalom and good morning.
