LOVE IS OBEDIENCE TO CHRIST

Christ Jesus said the First and greatest Commandment was:

'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul
And with all your mind.
And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'
All the Law and the Prophet hand on these two Commandments.'
(Matthew 22:37-40)

How do we Love God?
We demonstrate our Love for God by our Obedience to God.
There is no other way to show our Love for God
Obedience is Love in action.

We know that we have come to know Him
IF WE OBEY HIS COMMANDS.

The man who says, 'I know Him,'
But does not do what He Commands is a LIAR,
And the TRUTH is not in him.

BUT IF ANYONE OBEYS HIS WORD,
God's Love is truly made COMPLETE in him.

This is how we know we are in Him:
WHOEVER CLAIMS TO LIVE IN HIM
MUST WALK AS JESUS DID. (1 John 2:3-6)

GOD IS LOVE.
Whoever lives in Love lives in God, and God in him.
Love is mad complete among us
So that we will have confidence on The Day of Judgment,
because in this World we are like Him.
Thee is no Fear in Love.
But Perfect Love drives out Fear,
because Fear has to do with Punishment.
The man who Fears is not made Perfect in Love. (1 John 4:16-18)

DO NOT LOVE OR CHERISH THE WORLD
Or the things that are in the World.
If anyone love the World, Love for the Father is not in him.

For all that is in the World,
the Lust of the Flesh [craving for sensual gratification],
The Lust of the eyes [greedy longings of the mind]
And the Pride of life
[Assurance in one's own resources or in the stability of earthly things]--
These do not come from the Father but from the World [itself].

And the World PASSES AWAY and DISAPPEARS,
And with it the forbidden cravings
(The passionate desires, the Lust) of it;
BUT HE WHO DOES THE WILL OF GOD
And carries out His Purposes in his life, abides (remains) FOREVER.

Boys (lads), IT IS THE LAST TIME--HOUR
[THE END OF THIS AGE]
And as you have heard that Antichrist
[He who will oppose Christ in the guise of Christ] is coming,
EVEN NOW MANY ANTICHRISTS HAVE ARISEN,
Which confirms our belief that it is THE FINAL (THE END) TIME.
(1 John 2:15-18, AMP)

We are living in the Last of the Last Two Days of Time--
The Last Two Thousand years.
God Almighty has “worked” with mankind for six thousand years
And the seventh Day, The Day of Rest is at hand.

We must understand that all those who appear to be of Christ
Are not of Christ. Listen:

Not every one who say to Me ON THAT DAY,
Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your Name,
And driven out demons in Your Name,
And done many mighty works in Your Name?

And I will say to them openly (publicly)
I NEVER KNEW YOU;
Depart from Me, you who act WICKEDLY--
Disregarding My Commands. [Ps. 6:8.]
(Matthew 7:21-23, AMP)

The World has no Love by comparison to the Love of God—
Love being that state of affection
That Permeates ones very being--Saturating us--
That lasts FOREVER—Christ living in and through us--
Love Himself, living in and through us,
Enabling us to be Obedient to His Way, His Truth and His LIFE.

Love in the World is situational and conditional and temporary.

Do not be surprised and wonder, brethren,
THAT THE WORLD DETESTS AND PURSUES YOU WITH HATRED.

We know that we have passed over out of the DEATH into the LIFE
BY THE FACT THAT WE LOVE THE BRETHREN,
[Our fellow Christians].
He who does not Love abides—remains is held and kept continually--
IN [SPIRITUAL] DEATH. (1 John 3:13-14, AMP)

ALL WHO KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS
Who obey His orders and follow His plan, live and continue to live,
To stay and ) abide IN HIM, and HE IN THEM.--

They let Christ be a Home to them and they are the Home of Christ.
And by this we know and understand and have the proof
That He [really] live and makes His Home in us,
BY THE [HOLY] SPIRIT WHOM HE HAS GIVEN US.
(1 John 3:24, AMP)

Today, the World is raging against God, rushing toward oblivion. (Psalm 2)
This World in its present form is passing away. (1 Corinthians 7:31)
America is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.
Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)
As God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
Father, Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
