STEADY kind of LOVE

 

The STEADINESS of the LORD:

Malachi 3:6

King James Version

6 For I am the Lord, 

I change not; 

therefore ye sons of Jacob 

are not consumed.

What is a steady kind of love?

If you're born again, you'd know.

For our ROCK is CHRIST.

1 Corinthians 10:4

King James Version

4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: 

for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: 

and that Rock was Christ.

He is steady.

He never changes.

Hebrews 13:8

King James Version

8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, 

and to day, 

and for ever.

There is only LIGHT in the LORD.

James 1:17

King James Version

17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, 

and cometh down from the Father of lights, 

with whom is no variableness, 

neither shadow of turning.

He is the steadying force.

The winds and whims of change don't rock true believers.

We are centered in CHRIST alone.

We are not tossed this way, and that.

We are not subject to the whims of fame, or fortune.

Ephesians 4:14

King James Version

14 That we henceforth be no more children, 

tossed to and fro, 

and carried about with every wind of doctrine, 

by the sleight of men, 

and cunning craftiness, 

whereby they lie in wait to deceive;

James 1:6

King James Version

6 But let him ask in faith, 

nothing wavering. 

For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea 

driven with the wind and tossed.

Instead, we are deeply rooted in CHRIST.

Our love is patterned after how He taught us to love.

It is not subject to the ways of the world.

The birthdays, festivals, man-made celebrations.

It is not for show.

Our kind of love is rooted firmly in the teachings of JESUS.

We love steadily, moment by moment.

Making sure we don't miss out on the moments that matter to the LORD.

We love, making sure people are aware of Scripture.

For we are not caught up in earthly events.

Our focus is on heavenly events.

We look to the day JESUS will have His faithful meet Him up in the air, and be with Him forever.

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17

King James Version

16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven 

with a shout, 

with the voice of the archangel, 

and with the trump of God: 

and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

17 Then we which are alive and remain 

shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, 

to meet the Lord in the air: 

and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

That's how we love.

We care what happens to each one of you.

We care that we all be together with JESUS when GOD appoints the day.

We write, we warn, we lead you to worship the ONE, TRUE GOD.

The HOLY SPIRIT teaches us how to do that.

JESUS gave us the HOLY SPIRIT purposely for that.

John 14:26

King James Version

26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, 

whom the Father will send in my name, 

he shall teach you all things,

 and bring all things to your remembrance, 

whatsoever I have said unto you.

We love, we lead, we live -- THROUGH the WORD of GOD.

You can rely on our love, for it is not for self.

It is always for CHRIST.

All our daily efforts are directed towards this aim:

1 Thessalonians 5:23

King James Version

23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; 

and I pray God your whole spirit 

and soul and body be preserved blameless 

unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
