from John 3:16 and his 81 beet
was Love" He said:
THE doctrine Of heavenly
i've is the undying expression of
Gods power to the world God so
loved the world that He gave His
only begotten Son that whosoever
believe in Him should not perish
but have everlasting life.
II John, 3-13-24. The dominant
note of this epistle is 1--we. Love
is Of God. God is love. He that
abides in love abide7 in God. And
everyone that loves is begotten
Of God Everyone that loves
knows God.
HE that loves not knows not
God. He that loves not abides in
death. Whosoever hates his
brother is a murderer. If man
say I love God and hates his
brother. he is liar.
I'VE know that we have passed
from death unto life because we
love the brethren He that loves
not his brother whom he has seen.
how can he love God whom he has
not seen.
"PauPs letter to I Cor. 18th
Chapter: This is one OF the best
loved chapter in the Bible. The
prominent teaching Of Christian
ity: the miraculous manifestation
of Gods power in love. The most
powerful force in the universe,
the essence of Gods nature.
we may all possess II. The
Christian Church of today needs
it to help fight against sin and
worldliness. Love is the most eff
fective weapon, irresistible, indy
ing and eternal.
These are the words Of Paul 70
the Church. Though I speak with
the tongues of men and of angels
and have not love, / am become
rs sounding brass or a tinkling
cymbal. And though / have the
gift Of prophecy and understand
all mysteries. And all knowledge
and though l have all faith so
that I coud remove mountains,
and have not love, ] am nothing.
"And though | bestow all my
goods to feed the poor, and
though i give my body to be
burned ard have not love. it pro-
fiteth me nothing. Love suffer
eth long and is kind, love envieth
not. Love vaunteth not itself, is
not puffed up. Doth not behave
itself unseemingly, Seeketh not
her own, is not easily provoked,
thinketh no evil.
Love rejUiceth not in iniquity,
but rejoiceth in the truth. Love
beareth all things, hopeth all
things. Love never faileth, but
where there be prophecies they
shall fail. Whether there be tom
CUES they shall cease, whether
there be knowledge, IL shall van
ish away.
THE doctrine of heavenly love
Is the undying expression of Gods
power TO the world. God so loved
the world that he gave his only
begotten son that Whosoever be-
lieved in Him should not perish,
but have everlasting life.
"All Christians ought to go to
church each Sunday morning. Co
ing to church is not all there
is to being a Christian. But it is
an essential part of Christians
profession. And II is Gods method
of building Christ into the lives of
the people. If the churches go
down. then the standards of life
go down. The church is witness
bearing institution to Christ. To
keep Him before the minds of
men. The mission of the church is
10 keep the people informed and
reminded of Christ. Christ Him
self is the transforming power in
mems lives.
