Your faith and the way you walk depend on your love for God. Jesus says that the first and therefore the most important commandment is, to love the Lord your God, de tout ton coeur, âme, esprit, et la force (Marque 12:30, Luc 10:27). Malheureusement, many Christians are often more focused on the second commandment, namely to love your neighbor as yourself, and have often more love for the creations, than for the Creator. Et ce n'est pas tout, this second commandment is often twisted and misinterpreted so that it causes spiritual passivity and acceptance of the works of the devil and the kingdom of darkness. Mais Dieu, Jésus, and the Holy Spirit say, that everything begins with your love for God. When you love God with all your heart, you shall love your neighbor as yourself and by these two commandments, Vous devez respecter la loi (Matthieu 22:40). La loi is not a list with a set of rules, which you have to keep in life in order to be saved, but the law represents God’s will and His nature. If you are né de nouveau, and the Holy Spirit lives inside of you, then you have God’s nature and you shall automatically do God’s will. But it all begins with your love for God, and if your love for God is above the love you have for yourself and for the world.
Your actions determine if you love someone
Loving someone is not passive but it requires action. By your talk, marcher, and deeds, you prove if you really love God and Jesus Christ and whether the Holy Spirit lives inside of you.
Jésus dit, que si vous L’aimez vraiment, Vous devez garder ses commandements. This means, that you shall do, what Jesus has commanded you to do.
Only when you keep His commandments, you shall prove that you love Him, and you shall marcher dans son amour.
You can say that you love God and that you love Jesus, but that won’t give you access to the Kingdom of God.
Everyone can say that he or she loves God, but there are only a few, who can also prove it.
Only your deeds, actions and walk after the Spirit, show if you are born of God and if you love God with all your heart. Your works will show if you love God and Jesus above all.
Spending time with the person you love
Il y a beaucoup de gens, who say that they love someone, but their actions prove otherwise. If you love someone, you want to be with that person. You want to spend time with that person and invest in the relationship. You’ll listen to that person because you want to get to know that person. En écoutant, you will get to know a person, and you will know exactly, what the person likes and loves and what the person dislikes and not loves.
You shall treat the person with respect and shall do what pleases the person. If you really love a person, you won’t do anything that will grieve and hurt the person and makes the person sad.
It’s the same with the sons of God. When you love your Father, you will listen to your Father and spend time with Him in prayer. You shall take His words and keep His words and apply His words to your life. De sorte que, you shall walk according to Sa volonté.
You shall not do anything that will hurt Him or grieve Him and will mock and damage His Kingdom. You shall give up your own pleasures, convoitises, désirs, and will for His will. Tout comme Jésus, Who gave up His life to do the will of His Father.
Jesus loves God above all
Pendant Jésus’ walk on earth, Jesus spent much time with His Father in prayer and stayed obedient to Him. Jesus was led by the Holy Spirit and didn’t rebel at any moment. Jésus est restéobéissant even unto death. Jesus wasn’t influenced by the devil, by the temptations of the world, and by the people around Him. Jesus continued to fulfillGod’s plan for His life.
Was Jesus a wishy-washy, and did Jesus tolerate and accept every behavior and sin? Non, Jesus spoke with authority. He was straightforward and often spoke hard words to people.
Jesus could be very confronting, especially to the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Oftentimes people have the wrong image of Jesus. They have created an Jésus imaginaire, who accepted all things, and every behavior, and was always going around with a smile on His face, while He was preaching.
But that’s not the reality of who Jesus and still is. If you want to read more about this, I would like to refer you to the following article: Qui est Jésus?
Jésus était un avec le Père, just like we are one in Him, and in the Father:
Qu'ils soient tous un; as Thou, Père, art in Me, and I in Thee, that they also may be one in Us: that the world may believe that Thou has sent Me. And the glory which Thou gave Me I have given them; qu'ils soient peut-être un, even as We are One: Je suis en eux, and Thou in me, afin qu'ils soient rendus parfaits en un seul; and that the world may know that Thou hast sent Me, and has loved them, as Thou has loved Me (John 17:21-23)
Nous savons par là que nous aimons les enfants de Dieu, quand nous aimons Dieu, and keep his commandments. Car c’est là l’amour de Dieu, que nous gardions ses commandements: et Ses commandements ne sont pas pénibles (1 John 5:2-3)
Aimes-tu Dieu de tout ton cœur?
Jesus walked after the will of His Father because He loved and still loves Him above all. Jesus loved the Father with all His heart. And that’s where it all begins, do you love God above all? Or do you love yourself and your own life; your flesh and the world more?
'Soyez le sel de la terre’
