Episode 3 - God's love

God is love.

To love is God. 1 John 4:7-8 - "Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love."

Creation is wrapped in love, and presented to man as a gift.

Loving gifts are carefully planned, carefully selected and chosen with not only emotions but rationally carved in Spirit. This, God did.

He could have splashed the trees with black leaves, and He could made the seas red in colour. Imagine Him spreading the space without light? Yet, like shopping for a loved one God did all of these for us.

Let God define love in Himself, about Himself, around Himself.

Behold, the Love of God is in your hands! Divine decision

Creation wrapped in His love. Gift in our own hands Indeed, Love is Smart!

Episode 2: THE WORLD'S VIEW OF LOVE

I was given an assignment to present a topic - IS LOVE ALONE ENOUGH?

Why would such a question be asked? There is a lot of differing opinions and views on what love is. Some say Love is Blind. Others say there is true love and fake love.

Yet still others believe for a relationship/marriage to thrive one needs a little bit of both of love and money. As a Bible student, I have searched keenly on the above through the lenses of The Word of God and found no such things. Psalm 119:105 says "Your word is a lamp for my feet and a light on my path" I found it ridiculous when people use their worldly lenses to look into their lives, that are already darkened, instead of using the lamp provided by the Creator to look into every path of darkness for better appreciation of human endeavours.

The world is full of darkness, how then can you use dark glasses at night. What do we make of people who wear dark glasses at night.

Yet this is exactly what we are doing with our lives, pathetic, isn't it?

Shall we allow the maker of love, who is love Himself define love

through His Word?

Today's DAILY WALK WITH GOD (The DWWG)

Text: *Romans 1:22-25*

22 Professing to be wise, they became fools, 23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things. 24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, 25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

MESSAGE: "IDOL WORSHIP": THE DANGEROUS RELIGIOUS SIN! Part One

A. Any Bible student, may have studied about the coming wrath of God. God is angry because we have become children of disobedience. Col 3:6. But one annoying thing that offends God is the way we want to belittle Him to a creature, or give the glory He deserves to things He has created. 

Idol Worship is the worship of creatures in the form of a physical image, such as a statue or icon. This has become a serious problem in our time. Satan has been modified idolatry and disguised it such that people are unaware of what they are doing. 

B. In modern times pastors have been selling calendars, wristbands, stickers, necklaces, etc to their followers and they have placed all their trust in such things. Unfortunately, they are ignorant about them. They see themselves as serious Christians yet they are actually worshipping idol. There are churches which bow to imagery, like the photo of the famous Passion of Christ star( James Patrick "Jim" Caviezel ), moulded Mary (veneration of Mary, mother of Jesus), anointing oils, and other concoctions. Others use the printed Scriptures (Bible) as their protectors etc. Millions of people call themselves Christians but they are actually idol worshippers. Take time and read *Isaiah 44:13-20*

C. Just like Aaron, leaders in Christian religion have led people astray. *(Exodus 32:1-24)*

Look at how Aaron lied to Moses: *Compare vs 3&4 to 24*

3 So all the people broke off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them to Aaron. 4 And he received the gold from their hand, and he fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made a molded calf. Then they said, “This is your god, O Israel, that brought you out of the land of Egypt!”

24 And I said to them, ‘Whoever has any gold, let them break it off.’ So they gave it to me, and I cast it into the fire, and this calf came out.”

This is what today's Preachers (aka pastors) are doing. They are deceiving people and leading them into fire. Yet most of the people are blind. But that is not an excuse, if a blind man leads another, they. .... *Matt 15:13-14*

Do you have trust in some physical items and believe that God's power is in those things? If yes, then you are on the wrong path. Follow the steps to salvation and get saved today. 

STEPS TO SALVATION:

*HEAR:* Listen to the Gospel message about the Death, Burial and the Resurrection of Jesus (1 Cor 15:1-4, Luke 24:44-48).

*REPENTANCE:* Repent from your sins and turn to Jesus (Acts 3:19), 

*CONFESSION*: Confess Jesus as the Son of God (Acts 8:37), and 

*BE BAPTISED:* Allow for Baptism and wash away your sins. (Acts 2:38, Mark 16:15), and Jesus will add you to the Church (the Kingdom of God) Acts 2:47.
