Love Fulfilled Ministry

even as choosing us in Him before creation of the world to exist holy and in his presence in love. * We can not argue that obdedience is doing God's will. What is God's will? It is God's will that we exist in His presence in love, and that we become like Him, holy. We love Him because he first loved us and as God is demonstrating His love toward man through His Son, God has given us His Spirit that pours out his love into our hearts, testifying we are his own. As children God desires love, to have a people of His own, that are like Him. There is Light and there is darkness. There is a reasonable service that requires the sacrifice acceptable to God in regards to becoming children of light. * We can make doing God's will about many things, so it is helpful to understand what God purposed in the beginning. to exist holy and in his presence in love . * God chose us, to exist holy and in his presence in love. If God exists holy, so to exist in His presence one mus...

None, in all respects, born of God, yields sin because His seed abides in them and not sinful because born of God. * We see the word sin,  hamartia , meaning "trespass, error, failure, sin" and in context of this scripture, sin is deeds of or  lawlessness . The word poieō speaks of maturity, and all those of the sinful nature practice or make or produce or yield deeds of lawlessness. *  The word sinful, ἁμαρτάνω ( hamartanō , from hamartia "lawlessness" and anō "full, up to the brim") implies a nature of sin that yields death. Sinful implies full of sin, being of the sinful nature not a part of God's righteous nature. It is related to the concept that the one born of God, is not of the sinful nature no longer though he lives in a body that has not been redeemed. The one born of the seed of God will bear fruit or yield or make or construct or practice righteousness. This implies a growth process, having the seed of righteousness planted which grows...

and that life was brought to light and beholding and testifying and proclaiming to you eternal life, so that you also have fellowship with us, now, indeed our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ and this we write so that our joy exists complete. * These things John writes so that our joy exists complete. He is proclaiming to us the Way our joy is completed. Now, there is a process of growth where there is further joy in obedience, which is in keeping the words of Jesus. The discipline of God is that we share in His character, thus we grow up in knowledge of Him. As James wrties when endurance has done its work in the testing, the proving of our faith, maturity produces wholeness, lacking in nothing. How important it is that we learn this truth, as in Him we are made complete, brought forth to bear fruit of abiding in the Vine, of wholeness, of joy of fellowship. Whom existing from the beginning, whom hearing, whom beholding the one with our eyes, whom l...

the One we proclaim, to admonish all men, and teach all men in all wisdom so that presenting all men mature in Christ. * The Church, the People Who is the one we proclaim to know? but Jesus. Who do we proclaim to others? And what does it mean to present all mature?  The Greek word "all" is usually when the substantive has the article. *  In other words we must look at the context of surrounding scriptures to see who is inclusive in the all. In this case, those in Christ. Here is a verse that we see "all" again, " The grace of God is revealed to all men teaching us to deny ungodliness and the worldly passions, living righteously and piously in the present age... and to cleanse himself a special people zealous for good works ." *  Who is "all" in this verse? The ones chosen to walk in good works or to yield fruit of godliness. We are learning that good works is a fruit of maturity and not about doing things but about becoming, growing up t...

love the Lord your God in whole of your heart and in whole of your soul and in whole of your mind. * An expert in the Law asked Jesus what the greatest commandment was, Jesus said this was it, to love God in entirety. What does it mean to have a heart after God? could it be shown in the wholeness of how we love God? And doesn't this tell us what is more important to God, that we love Him in whole? We understand love because he loved us, he revealed such truth to us. And we understand when we were dead in our trespasses and sin God so loved us, sending us His Son. Why did God create men, to have servants, or to love? I believe the latter. so that to exist strong, laying hold together with all the saints, what the width, length, height, and debt, these all knowing the love of Christ, that surpassing, so that knowing, filled to all the fullness of God . * Is there strength in God's love? is it why the bond of love leads to perfection? There is a fullness of God to be fille...

if willing to be perfect, go, trading yours, that under you, coming into existence and presenting your self beggarly and possessing treasure in heaven and come follow me as my disciple. * The treasure of the heart is a complex subject needed in this time. It is amazing when we look at scriptures in the Greek. This verse is usually translated in a way that it speaks of giving a condition of giving all your money away "then" following Christ. In this case the man could not because his heart was on his possessions, "for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also ." *   If we translate this verse the usual way I believe it doesn't make sense in whole of other scriptures. It is about the condition of our heart and we see in the scriptures the concept of giving up the life of this world, becoming as a child to enter into the kingdom of God which speaks of humility and of being poor in this regard. But also as Jesus said we must enter the kingdom of God...

as it is written, giving to the poor that His righteousness, enduring for all time that, now, supplying a harvest to the sower also bread, to extent of food supplying and multiplying that your harvest and increasing the harvest of your righteousness. * We see the Greek words σπόρος (sporos which means sowing, time to sow; produce, harvest, offspring) and σπείρω (speirō which means I sow, sow) so God supplies a harvest to the sower. The word harvest also means fruit, as the parable of sowing tells us the plant grows up enduring the weeds to bear fruit or harvest. What is sown? my money? the goal is the fruit of righteousness, so only if you think money is seeking first His righteousness. Growth is in knowing Christ and we know from other scriptures in the New covenant in His blood, that which is sown is of an imperishable seed, it is the word of God, which is food that increases a harvest unto life. Sowing and reaping is about the harvest of righteousness, thus we seek first His...
