Needs No Teacher
Have you ever considered that, God has sought counsel from no one
throughout the history of the world? He needed no teacher to set Him on
the right path. He created the universe. He knows all, sees all,. He
brings order to chaos. He created us as unique human beings. He loved
us so much that He sent His only Son to earth to live, die, and rise
again so that everyone that who acknowledge Him as savior and Lord
will spend eternity in heaven with Him. Our God needs no help, but he
chooses to use us to take His message to the ends of the earth..Isaiah
40:13 Who hath directed the Spirit of the LORD, or being his counselor
hath taught him?

Hate Vs Love
Hatred is a monster with an enormous appetite for destruction. It feeds on death. Once hatred destroys the present object of its intention, it seeks the next victim and then the next, and the next. If left unchecked only a barren, lifeless world strewn with death remains. In this way hatred destroys friendships, family’s, churches, business and nations. Love is breathtakingly beautiful. Love understands that sin radiates death and moves to cover up the sin to stop the infection Love cares when we are embarrassed or ashamed, and rather than call attention to our shame or laugh at our red face, it drops a soft blanket of grace over the incident. Love is extravagantly gracious, covering all sin with the beautiful clothing of forgiveness and grace. Jesus redeemed a woman taken in adultery, went home with a cheating tax collector and welcomed a denying disciple. His love covers us. Proverbs 10:12- Hatred stirreth up strifes: but love covereth all sins.

DIVINE LOVE
The Bible uses different words to distinguish the various kinds of human love from divine love. When expressed in accord with scripture, human love can be a good thing in our lives. However, self interests often can cause it to be selective, conditional, or possessive. Gods kind of love [agape] acts in the best interest of another whatever the cost to ones self. Divine love is unchanging, eternal, forgiving, compassionate, and trustworthy. Jesus commanded His followers to Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart soul and mind…. and thy neighbor as thyself. [Matthew 22:37,39]. By allowing Gods love to flow through us to others can change our lives and the lives of those around us. Human love anchored in divine love is a powerful thing…1Peter 4:8 And above all things have fervent love to yourselves, for love will cover a multitude of sins.

LOVE
..Have you ever heard anyone say I will forgive them but I will never
forget? What if God had that attitude toward us? What if he defined
love in the same way? We would be in big trouble. 1Corinthians 13,
teaches us that love behaves itself and does not seek its own. Love is
kind.In this passage of scripture the words for love are taken from the
Greek word agape meaning as a love that prizes its object above other
things, with an unwillingness to abandon the object. [Thayers Greek
lexicon]..That describes how much God loves us–with a love that died
for us when He didn’t deserve it. We can ignore God, disobey Him, and
mock Him; yet He will love us. we can’t truly know God without
experiencing His love, and we know God when we love others.. [1John
4:7-8] 7-beloved let us love one another. For love is of God: and
everyone that loveth is born, and knoweth God. 8–He that loveth not
knoweth not God; for God is love. 1 John 4:7-8.

QUESTIONS?
Here are some questions I am asked a lot. Precisely what are we? where did we come from? If there is a God where did He come from? Who is this Christ you talk about.? How do you know that Christ is Gods Son? How do you know God created all things?. We can quote scriptures all day and some people will not believe. So what is the answer? If you do not believe in God and Jesus the Son. then there are very few things we can say or do make you believe. That comes from deep inside your heart and without the Holy Spirit you can never truly believe . I could give scriptures for all this but would it really matter? That is my question???

JUST AS I AM
The words from this old hymn means a lot to me. It means God will except us just as we are. We don’t have to be rich or well educated or have all kinds of degrees. We sure can’t be saved by how smart we are, or how much money we have, or how many times we attend worship services. If we don’t have Jesus in our hearts then all these other things don’t mean a thing.Walking the isle and being baptizeed will not save you. Only the blood of Jesus saves and you have to repent. And believe. And that is what it takes..John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

WINNERS
We sometimes think of our selves as great winners. We can fight wars and win we can win in sports., achieve in our work, school, and about everything else we do we have conquered. But when it comes to our eternal salvation we sure haven’t won this one yet. Why? Because there is only one way to win this and that is through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. If we try any other way we will loose and we will not conquer nor will we win…John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

THE FIXER
A lot of us probably know people who try to be fixers. Some are probably family members, friends, or co workers.They try to fix everything. Marriages that are in trouble, relationships, financial problems all kinds of things.When they can’t fix them they sometime get upset and I have heard some say why can’t I fix this?. You see when we try to do what is Gods work that is when we get in trouble. No we can’t fix everything. We need to turn to God for He is the great fixer. We can pray for God to fix the problems of our family friends and others, but they have to ask for Gods help also…Matthew 21:22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
