Refresher

Very interesting thread: 1 Corinthians 13 NKJV “The Greatest Gift” 13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body [a]to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing. 4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not [b]puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, [c]thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part. 10 But when that which is [d]perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away. 11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 13 And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

What about in Amplified Version Romans 12:2 And do not be conformed to this world [any longer with its superficial values and customs], but be transformed and progressively changed [as you mature spiritually] by the renewing of your mind [focusing on godly values and ethical attitudes], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His plan and purpose for you]. * Renewing of our mind is our part on how to focus on godly values & ethical attitudes. How? * Let's be deligent to study the Word of God and be a doer of the Word of God & through it... we will have "The Mind of Christ" as we know and we know what are those pleasing and acceptable to store in our mind.

Doing Great Commission is the most important compassion for the Glory of God., and not please us? Galatians 1:10 For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ.

May you be found salty. Love the word salty. Matthew 5:13

Well that is your "Faith" to go for tribulation>>The wrath of God with the Seven seals...too scary Brother.

Just wait n see. Peace. Well for me, great tribulation is not my portion..as I am a precious child of the Living God...never! that I will experience the wrath of God as per the Seven seals..too scary and I am not deserve for it....and remember it's all about faith. Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Keyword: Substance- in Greek word "HUPOSTASIS". It means the essence and the assurance.

In short, the Faith of Jesus Christ is Perfect and that is the "Mustard Seed Faith".

If God is directing you to do so. Maybe there is someone inside that club that God knows is in need and ready to receive the his Word. I do not think that God would call you into a place where you yourself would be temped to sin. So if God is calling you to go into the club and talk to this person. It is because he knows you are going to be able to do so without falling into sin yourself. This is why we need God to guide us and not ourselves. Yes I agree, if the Holy Spirit leads you to go, then go, because that soul is ready for harvest and in Christ Jesus there is no condemnation at all. Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes.

You hit the target chickencoop, love the scriptures you posted!

LOL

Lots of different preaching about the Word of God, but I am agree that preaching about The Gospel of Christ with the guidance and anointing of the Holy Spirit is profound for me, because only the Holy Spirit can access and knows the deep things of God. Kindly read the book of 1 Timothy 4 "Beware of false teachers: warn your people". and the Bible says, know the truth and the truth shall set you free!

Why unfit for any good work? Because integrity is important for any good work.

Let us be reminded even we have a power within us of unlimited potential, in short "A RESURRECTION POWER" but if we don't know how to operate, then it is nothing. 1. We have a power, but if we don't know how to love people, then it profits nothing, only like a clanging cymbals. 1 Corinthians 13:1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2. We have a power but if we continue to live in sin, then we are hurting the God the Father...God hates sin...and we must hate sins as well..as the Lord says, be imitators of Jesus Christ copy Him and be holy for God is Holy. Ephesians 5:1-2 Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma. 1Peter 1:15-16 But as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.”

I agree and the evidence that Love does no wrong and Love is the fulfillment of the Law was John 3:16 NKJV "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."

Sounds connected to my meditation this morning "A Husband Love & A Wife Submission">>> 1Timothy 2:11-12 NKJV Let a woman learn in silence with all submission. And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence.

It's Agape Love indeed!

It means all about Love: 1 Corinthians 13:1-13 NKJV "The Greatest Gift" Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body [to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing. Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not [b]puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, [thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part. But when that which is [d]perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away. When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known. And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

In the kingdom of God is all about free will>>>It's up to you which one you wish to enjoy: the lust of the flesh as you mentioned above or walking in the Spirit? Galatians 5:16-26 NKJV Walking in the Spirit I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, [b]fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, [c]murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.

You can find the Power of the Holy Spirit that works mightily in the book of Acts.

This is my long desire for my son to Mentor him.

We have the power because the Holy Spirit is in us!

Also from China. But this corona has shown Bill's program for the world with Digital Certificate, with or without Corona. Yeay, China is on the way but as of now the official is Sputnik-V. For Bill's program you are right, but for those only who likes it I guess...and we as Christians we knew that it leads for deception. Ephesians 6:10-11 NKJV Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. "The Saints should stand against the wiles of the devil"

I guess there is already a vaccine without digital certificate, the first registered vaccine to fight the Covid-19 and the name is Sputnik-V from Russia origin.

True)))Better is a dry morsel with quiet than a house full of feasting with strife. Because, by the STRIPES of Jesus Christ we were HEALED. But feasting with STRIFES are cancer of the bones. STRIPES vs STRIFES 1. Jesus stripes gives healing and peace. 2. Enemy's strifes gives sickness & disease and trouble.

And in addition: Proverbs 18:21 New King James Version 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.
