The greatest commandment, and gift God gave us, is to LOVE! No - TopicsExpress



          

The greatest commandment, and gift God gave us, is to LOVE! No matter what we do for The Lord, if we dont do it in love it is all for nothing! It dont matter how much we give, how good we sing, or how many scriptures we can quote from memory...... If we dont do it in love it is all in vain, and profits The Lord and ourselves NOTHING! Matthew 22:36-40 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” And He said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the great and foremost commandment. The second is like it, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments depend the whole Law and the Prophets.” John 13:34-35 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.” 1 Corinthians 12:31 But earnestly desire the greater gifts. And I show you a still more excellent way. 1 Corinthians 13:1-8, 13 If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing. Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails; but if there are gifts of prophecy, they will be done away; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be done away. But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love. 1 Peter 4:8 Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins.
