Hello
Everyone,
The word that Paul uses here is the Greek term agape. Agape is the highest of all Greek words for love.
The reality
is that God places His love in our heart through the person of Jesus.
Agape is
love in its highest form. It is the Divine Demonstration of love found only in
Christ and when that love invades a person’s heart it sweeps all hatred,
malice, deception and other destructive behaviors away.
Paul makes it clear, agape is a matter of personal choice not a matter of personal strength or of personal ability.
Paul makes it clear, agape is a matter of personal choice not a matter of personal strength or of personal ability.
Our gifts are meaningless without love
The work of the Holy Spirit brings gifts into the lives of those who place their faith in Jesus.
We cannot
serve Jesus to the level of His strength without having His love living in us.
Our life is pointless without love
Paul says that without love: I am nothing. Just because you are breathing does not mean that you are really living.
The sad
fact is that far too many people settle for merely existing rather than living.
If you do
not have the love of Christ living within you, you are just existing and not
really living.
Your efforts are fruitless without love
Your efforts are fruitless without love
As Believer’s, we are called to bear fruit and show ourselves ready to serve Jesus whenever and wherever He sends us.
The reality
is that our efforts will never amount to anything without the POWER of Christ’s
love as a driving force in our lives.
