TOPIC: LOVE IS PATIENCE SPEAKER: EMMANUEL ILLIYA We've been on a series, a series on love We've been studying the book "The most excellent way" by J. Render Caines We're on the third chapter already and this night we'd be talking about Patience from 1Corinthians 13:4 This chapter is as interesting as it is important and by way of summary, we can say the chapter talks about these four parts: We have it here that "Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant" We'd be talking about half of the first sentence i.e  LOVE IS PATIENT 1. God's patience with man 2. Examples of patient men from the scriptures 3. Relationship between patience and wisdom (slightly) 4. GOD is patient with us, we should be patient with others too 1. We can see how that despite all things GOD was patient with Cain, Noah, Sodom, Israelites, David, etc 2. Mo...

THE MYSTERY OF SOUND (TMS) THEME: LOVE THE MOST EXCELLENT WAY TOPIC: THE GLORIOUS IMPACT OF LOVE SPEAKER: MR. JOHN UKA IMO.  Thanks a lot TMS leaders for this great privilege to talk to God's people. My brother Isaiah may God bless ym. You are truly a leader. grace on... I want to ask us how we felt at the declaration of this series Theme? *LOVE THE MOST EXCELLENT WAY* To me I felt happy and secured in HIM. Tonight we shall be considering the topic: *THE GLORIOUS IMPACT OF LOVE* LOVE is the most beautiful and Impactful Word on earth. I will tell us that reason behind this statement. Love is not just a 'word' love is a person, and that person is JESUS CHRIST. WOW! Any explanation of love outside the person of Jesus Christ is wrong. When we are talking about the glorious impact of love, what we are really presenting is the glorious impact of JESUS because he is love... The book of 1 John 4:16 brought out the true concept of love. 1John 4:16...

LOVE THE MOST EXCELLENT WAY

THE MYSTERY OF SOUND(TMS). LOVE THE MOST EXCELLENT WAY INTRODUCTION When asked to name the greatest commandment, Jesus quoted the Old Testament: ―Love the Lord your God with all of your heart, soul, and mind; and―love your neighbor as yourself (Matthew 22:37-39). It might appear that Jesus could not make up His mind and therefore answered the question by suggesting two possibilities. ―What is the greatest commandment? It‘s either to love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul and mind, or to love your neighbor as yourself. I‘m not sure. Pick one. But, in truth He gave one answer to the question. These two commandments cannot be separated. If we love God with all our heart, soul and mind, we will love our neighbor as ourselves. If our confession of faith in Him is valid, we will love Him, and our love for Him will be seen in our desire and effort to keep His commandments. Our love for Him, as well as our desire and effort to keep His commandments, will be seen in ...

Make Love or Love?

THE MYSTERY OF SOUND (TMS) Make Love or Love? The world says, "make love. " God says, "Love." We have confused sex with love. It's one thing to know how to make love to someone; it's quite another to actually love someone. "Let's make love" refers to a performance. It means to go do something. "Making love" is merely a technical experience,  whereas loving is a spiritual act (for God is love, and God is a Spirit). Friend, If sex produced love, no one in the world would feel more love than the prostitutes. Yet prostitutes have among the highest rates of suicide! Sex is a physical sign of spiritual act. The giving of oneself completely to another. The world has define sex differently because it has a shallow and distorted idea of sex. Sex is completely a spiritual entanglement and it involves giving... Even giving away and instilling your DNA in the woman involve. Sex is a covenant between a woman and a man. This is why we...

GOD IS LOVE

The Mystery of Sound (TMS) God Is Love 1John 4:7-10, 17-21(MSG) My beloved friends, let us continue to love each other since love comes from God. Everyone who loves is born of God and experiences a relationship with God. The person who refuses to love doesn't know the first thing about God, because God is love—so you can't know Him if you don't love. This is how God showed His love for us: God sent His only Son into the world so we might live through Him. This is the kind of love we are talking about—not that we once upon a time loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as a sacrifice to clear away our sins and the damage they've done to our relationship with God. God is love. When we take up permanent residence in a life of love, we live in God and God lives in us. This way, love has the run of the house, becomes at home and mature in us, so that we're free of worry on Judgment Day—our standing in the world is identical with Christ's. There ...

God's Love Is Personal

Image
GOD’S LOVE IS PERSONAL Biblical Perspectives in Everyday Life. Today I saw two wildly differing views of God’s involvement in our lives. One man, in a local newspaper, referred to God as “the guy that lives a bazillion miles away up in the sky.” The other viewpoint was displayed in a poem on a website that was sent to me (because of an upcoming surgery). The poem was titled, “The Operation.” It wasn’t the poem that grabbed me, however. Prominently displayed near the poem was a beautiful drawing of a surgeon working, and Jesus was standing beside the surgeon with one hand guiding the surgeon’s hand as he worked. What a loving, personal picture compared to just some “guy” way out in the sky. If God were just “that guy who lives a bazillion miles away in the sky,” I’d have given up a long time ago. In fact, because God is NOT “that guy” and is not a bazillion miles away, I actually HAVE given up everything—to Him. Because God cares for us, we are called to cast our care...
