"Biblical Love: It is an act of the will accompanied by emotion that leads to action on behalf of its object...not sappy sentimentalism" Wow! What a great definition of love! ❤️
@@mreen254where do you think emotions come from? When we get married why do we promise to love and cherish someone even when we don’t feel like it? These are questions that if you think hard enough about you will answer your own question.
This sermon convicted me BIG TIME!!!😢 My children have hurt me so bad. I am learning that my pride has taken over. I have repented, and I am so thankful for God who in His Grace & Mercy led me to this sermon. I am saving this sermon, and every time I feel that hurt and resentment, I will listen again. Praise God!!❤
We were going over the 2 greatest commandments in Bible study last week when we spoke about the vertical and the horizontal when it hit me: a horizontal line and a vertical line form a cross.
A message for all but especially for me. Deeply convicted. Lord, I love you and pray that you help me to love and pray like Jesus... even my enemies. Thank you for this word being preached by this pastor. Amen Father God. 🙌
I’m waiting on this omg This man is a true man of the lord Listening to him makes me feel like if I’m back to Paul’s day I love you my brother you’re a true man of the LORD JESUS CHRIST
I need to confess, I have so much anger in my heart for the pain and hurt my wife inflicted through her infidelity. I have been trying to claw my way from it and it threatens to swallow me daily. I listen to sermons like this on repeat and beg God to take it away but there are two men I have fantasized about doing harm to for years, gotten so far as to track them down and drive to their houses and work with the intention of making sure they ended up in the hospital or morgue. I have people in my life who offered to “help” me take care of the problem and I know they have done it before. I’m not proud of these thoughts, I am deeply ashamed but it feels like the pressure of a fire hydrant trying to escape through a plastic drinking straw at all times. I pray and worship and beg and confess but it claws and claws at my sanity. I feel so lost and broken, I am thankful for Sermons like this to keep my path.
God is love!I was robbed in 1992(My last year in Detroit age 21 at that time.)Sadly when a year or two later(Moved to Atlanta later in 1992)I heard that one of the guys that robbed me was murdered. I felt so sad as I seen has brother sometime before.I forgave him (not in person. )Love teachs us to love all people, even those that hate us!God bless you Dr Voddie Baucham.
Following,,, thanks for this platform .. voddie may God bless you with wisdom and knowledge. There is love in God, even though world may hate us , God has assured me He love me....
WOW I am thoroughly thoroughly impressed. I always listen to Voddie. I just had to pause it and write this because of how impressed I am. Near the end when he talks about those who would argue about nuking Afghanistan despite there being so many children... I said out loud to myself "Okay, Voddie. Now that you've taken this stance, you have to clear up the whole situation of God telling people to wipe out entire civilizations." AND LITERALLY IMMEDIATELY, Voddie gets right to that. Man! I love this guy. So much respect for this man and I appreciate all he has taught me in the last 2-3 years.
AMEN and THANK YOU BRO. PASTOR. AS USUAL. RIGHT ON TIME Literally. I've LEARNED You have to pray for your enemies and keep going. Not doing so is failing to keep your charge. NO BODY, NOTHING IS WORTH THE LOSE OF YOUR SOUL. And I promise, u WILL EVEN FEEL BETTER. ( FORGIVE.) AMEN?
Thank You Jesus for preaching through others to give me understanding and how Your (Jesus) Love is True Love through The Holy Bible ☝️❤️!! I so needed this today and everyday that God gives me🙏!
There isn't.! Why Jesus said to first love God with all your being (commandments 1-4) 2nd love your neighbor as yourself (commandments 5-10). We can't make ppl love us yet if it's meant to be, it will happen in Gods time, not ours and at times, not at all. God's plan for us isn't always what we want & desire.!
@@texsis2112 Agreed! Without free will we cannot have love, therefore in order for His creation to experience love I believe God gave us that free will. He really is an amazing God.
By far, the best and most balanced message on Godly love that I have heard. Some things are new to me, but all confirmed by the Word of God...very nice way to glorify God in your servanthood.
This is an excellent teaching, showing that we have been saved by Grace, since many of us did experience dysfunctional relationships while growing up. Many of us had godly mothers and ungodly fathers, and our siblings followed our father, most of the time. Yes, our grandparents children didn’t set a good example, even the ones working in the churches. Thank you, dear teacher, for the spoken word of God our creator. Hallelujah! 🕊️
I know he's doing important things in Africa but we need him here. We need him to run for president we've probably not had a Christian, a real Christian maybe ever.
I understand the act of the will part. I do it all the time. But the emotional part i don't always have. I do loving acts out of my will, but emotionally im not there.
I find it easy to have bitter against girls that I attempt to have something with and it doesn’t work. Even if it ends on Good terms, which they mostly do! I need to have mercy, love, and grace with these women. They haven’t wronged me and yet I feel the need to place myself above Gods will. Pray for this foolishness of mine and the clarity as to why I react this way.
Pray talk to the lord just like you would to your self or anyone else wheb you want to give thanks or praise or lift up somone honour some one If uou are saved the Holy Spirit of God Makes I intecssion for us when we don’t know what or how to pray You should keep asking the lord about this and wait in him through his word to guide and answer uou
Thank you I lost my daughter in February and now I'm Raising 2 of her beautiful kids and I just want to raise them up in the Lord.i want to grow in the lord and can't read well so what can I do so I can grow and raise my grandbabies in the lord
Sister, I recommend reading your Bible, it’s the Word of God and ask the Holy Spirit to help you understand. The Holy Spirit will led you what you are to pray for. He intercedes for us. 🙏🏼
@@sharontreadway1089 ❤God bless you. I'm so sorry for your loss. The desire for truth is in your heart, ask God to water and grow it. Keep your eyes on Him and He will guide you, and those precious babies. If you are in the US, there are many scholarships and grants available for Christian private schools, build up a community of Bible believing Christians around you and the children, this will be so helpful and crucial to instilling faith and biblical foundation. I will pray for you all 💙
@@sharontreadway1089 God bless you. I hope you find your way. I'm trying to find mine as well. And the only way is through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior 🙏
In I Samuel 24 David (a man after God's own heart) could've killed Saul in the cave. In fact, he got close enough to Saul and cut off a piece of his robe and felt convicted. He then told his men not to harm Saul. David then catches up to Saul and humbled himself and said "12 Let the Lord judge between you and me, and let the Lord avenge me on you. But my hand shall not be against you. 13 As the proverb of the ancients says, ‘Wickedness proceeds from the wicked.’ But my hand shall not be against you." Saul responded "17 Then he said to David: “You are more righteous than I; for you have rewarded me with good, whereas I have rewarded you with evil." And also stated "19 For if a man finds his enemy, will he let him get away safely? Therefore may the Lord reward you with good for what you have done to me this day."
Why? Is like Who are these neighbors like Thee! Nor who among able to bring forth the meaning of Neighbors? Innocents little ones surrounding about will say from HERE YE ALL CAME FROM 1ST! Yes, How can ye all exist? The SHARED I AM will say, Remembering ye once born, to crawling, to walking, and till now thy feet resting upon the NEW very tip of time. Some will say ye never been on my shoes! Little Minds God's glory will say MILEAGE FROM ALL THY FEET IS RECOGNIZE IN FRONT OF HIM! HEIRS what is HIM? NOR MY BEAUTIFUL WHAT IS HIM? Remember the I AM. Who are you some will say? Before ye even have the privilege to ask the question? Students what is HUMILITY? Thy STRONGEST HEIRS. Some will say what are those tears from their eyes? Sincere TEARS. Now Students? What WILL YE DO?
This would have made sense to me prior before I understood the difference between Biblical love and the Roman Greco view of love. See Voddie Baucham youtube: The Biblical definition of love. He goes in the more detail about the Roman Greco view of love, which explains what she is saying and why its a problem.
The real and only weekly Sabbath that is ever commanded in the Bible is from the period of Fri. sunset - Sat. sunset. "Keep the 7th day holy" is what God commands in His law.
What is sad to me is that our favorite theologians can use scripture to reveal their biases. I understand and agree with his disappointments with liberal politicians, but it’s rare to hear the direct correlations to the errors in evil of conservatives. Two of my favorite theologians John MacArthur, and others very rarely use scripture to address man’s air is committed on the conservative side. If we are going to use scripture to correct man, then love both liberal and conservative by correcting them with the Scriptures.
I have to CONFESS, I am guilty of choosing. I am guilty of exercising my own judgements. I will speak to most and treat them well, but I have choosen not to speak to any PEDOPHILES!
The judge was against me and sided for my Evil weaked ex-abuser ex-husband who stole money from me. I had the evidence and even though I had the proof of what my ex-abuser ex-husband had done to me. The judge still made me pay my ex-abuser ex-husband knowing that my ex-abuser ex-husband stole my money. The Lord God Almighty said that there was corruption in Ancient Times an 42:34 d it is still happening today. The only thing that comforts me is that someday the Lord God Almighty Jesus will judge all of us in the end of the world. He will not get away from the Lord God Almighty Jesus.
I have always looked forward to his messages. But he really missed the mark with this one. His perception here is that of religion and theology. He failed to ask some very important questions. When you pray for your enemy, what are you praying for? When he spoke of submitting to those who rule over you. Who is ruling over you? This is Romans 6:16 all day. In his explanation, he is advocating the allegiance or obedience between two masters. Cursed be the man who maketh flesh his arm whose heart has departed from the Lord. I believe he needs to take a closer look in his material.😢
@@gerrydean7696 1 Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. You follow after theology, philosophy, religion and church doctrine. All of which leads one straight to hell. Instead of allowing God to transform you into his image and after his likeness. You try to conform God to yours. Mark 7:5-9 5 Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands? 6 He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. 7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. 8 For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do. 9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition. Revelation 2:9 refers to the church as the synagogue of satan. You follow the voice of another through the wisdom of men. All these things shall pass away, and with it those who obey and serve it. Unless the church and christian's repent, there will be no place found for them in heaven. The church and christian's do go to hell, Jesus himself said so in Matthew 7:21-23. I suggest you start spending time with God and building a relationship with him. Also it wouldn't hurt if you purchased a kjv bible. Anything else is a demonic book of the devil. You let the world/your pastor be your master, I'll keep Jesus as mine.
The baby is not a distraction unless you allow it to be, he/she is literally just being a baby…plus consider the mother or father who would be missing the important message because “they need to be excuse to properly take care of their baby”, also what makes you think that the baby is not properly taken care of? That sounds like a happy baby to me! Furthermore children Sunday school is actually a fairly new concept and didn’t exist in churches until very recent history, Voddie himself talk about this in one of his sermons! Consider also that Yahusha himself loved, embrace and preached to children and when he was a child!
I'm so grateful these are online, I'm going to need to listen to this message a few times... if not daily 🙏❤️
His one on 'The Wide and Narrow gate is really good too.

Biblical love is an act of the will accompanied by an emotion that leads to action on behalf of its object
Emotions have nothing to do with it.
It is the OBEDIENCE of the will to Glorify the name of GOD!

What is love without emotions?
@mreen254 Love only involved emotions AFTER you have actually push forward with the will of GOD!
