'You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the sons of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself;
I am the LORD. "(Leviticus 19:18)
our love is usually conditional and based upon how other people behave toward us.
This kind of love is based upon familiarity and direct interaction. The Greek word "phileo" defines this kind of love, often translated "brotherly love." Phileo is a soulish (connected through our emotions) kind of love - something that can be experienced by both believers and non-believers. This is in contrast to agape, which is love extended through the spirit.
Agape love requires a relationship with God through Jesus Christ, since the non-regenerated soul is unable to love unconditionally. Agape love gives and sacrifices expecting nothing back in return
I'm writing this because of the climate of things in our country called America the Beautiful. My mother use to say to me when I acted out of hand, "Pretty is, what Pretty does." Meaning no matter how great you look on the outside if you not right within can have a reflection of uglyliness. America isn't Beautiful on the inside appearances are deceiving.
As a race - the Human RACE we take much for granted, yes we might come in different shades and speak [culturally] with different tongues, but
we are all charged with the same commandment
"Love your neighbor as yourself; I am the LORD. " (Leviticus 19:18)
"Christians"
How you gonna reach those who need love, healing and salvation
by waiting for the doors of the church to open behind closed doors?
Wrong!
The door to your greater self should always be open....
No, GOD even uses treachous fools when necessary to achieve his purpose i.e., Judas. Even a man like Donald Trump, because of his inflammatory rhetoric and bigoted comments have gotten to the national consioucness. Did you notice we are all openly having diaglog about race relations in America arcross all social, cultural, and economic lines.
We are talking to each other, only good can come from exposing such a well kept secret within the most powerful nation on our planet.
We lead by example!
Well, tell me how will you experience loving another
embracing something new...
Well, all of this is considered
I'm your next door neighbor, a co-worker, stranger sitting next to you on a subway or a train.
Why can't love your neighbor as yourself?
We all share the same air, eat, sleep, our blood is red;
and this entire earth belongs to GOD,
and the fullness thereof...
no one has territorial rights here in America or in any other foreign land.
We gotta stop the hating and find way to heal
When you witnessing all these natural disasters in this world all around the globe.
Many People suffering inflation due to greedy financial "global" economy
High gas, food prices - we all feel that pain..
Social unrest around the globe
Monetary problems nobody is getting a pass no matter
what class, culture or religion you identify with.
ALL of US
Our race is dying everyday
The Human Race
When will we understand that we all must give a little ourselves
Fellowship with each other
spend time learning about the plight of another individual
stop thinking and coveting material things.
Once you stop and realize you might be surprised how we are more alike than different!
Without prejudging a book by it's cover - dive in and read that persons book
We can achieve more if we stop
comparing out you might come to know what we have in common.
Americans please believe
Everybody wants to have a shot at a successful life nobody grows up to fail.
We all require
stability, love, want respect from others,
we all seek to find Faith in GOD
we all seek to find Faith in GOD
however you perceive or worship Him.
We strive to achieve these successes not just for material gain
but to proclaim My living has not been in vain. Serve your purpose
and with an open mind keep this up front.....
GOD said it first - Jesus gave it as his last commandment
before he departed to sit on the right side as
Lord and Savior
Intercessor!
Humans shall love your neighbor as yourself.
So when you talk against somebody because they look different
maybe they went about life different from the way you may approach
We all die that's how your story ends....
Make your life count
You can't take anything out of this world but make your mark
Fellowship!
I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge--that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. (Ephesians 3:16-19)
