THE REAL CHURCH

Acts 2:41-47

The Church is really composed of all those who have opened their hearts to Jesus. They are joined together by the Holy Spirit dwelling in them. They are chiefly concerned about one thing—getting men everywhere to know that Jesus came down and lived and loved and died. So living together and working together there comes a renewal of strength, and there goes a clear, ringing witness to the world of the power of Jesus.

1 Corinthians 15:55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?

DO YOU DO IT?

1John 3:13-22

When Jesus died for us, it wasn’t because we were lovable. It was because we were so deeply tangled in sin. And our sin had to be got rid of somehow, it was hurting us so. It is easy to love the lovable. He loved us when we were unlovable. When we love the unlovable, even if we cannot like them, and are even willing to give our lives daily to win them, that’s the real touch of the real Jesus spirit.

John 10:30  I and my Father are one.

A SPELLING LESSON

1Corinthians 13:1-13

We marvel at the life Jesus lived and gave for us. One word explains it all: his love. What is love? Trace Jesus’ steps; then you will know. The practical spelling of love is J-e-s-u-s. We know it only as we know him. It was his love that gave meaning to everything said and done. No matter what talents we have, the real thing’s lacking unless love’s the driving power within. The rest makes statistics chiefly.

John 10:29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.

NO GAPS PLEASE

Matthew 22:34-40

We are to give God the devotion of our whole life. Our life is to be lived straight out and on in following unswervingly after him. We are not to start his way and then take a day off in the direction of self-interest. If we do, perplexities and doubts thicken with every step. The secret of the true life is bound up in the unfaltering purpose to please him perfectly. And love of him begets love for others.

John 10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

Galatians 6:1-10

Love understands. When Jesus’ love controls the life, it makes the heart full of the sympathy that thinks and understands. A heart like his is quick and gentle with the one needing help, because it understands. It reaches in to the human spirit. It eases the strain and stress of the heavy load, because it understands how to unload hurts and griefs and cares. We all love the human touch and sympathy. True sympathy is ability to understand.
