Revelation 2:4 NKJV

Nevertheless I have this against you, that you have left your first love.

THE EPHESIAN CHURCH WAS COMMENDED FOR MANY THINGS BY JESUS CHRIST. THEY TESTED AND EXPOSED FALSE APOSTLES, PERSEVERED WITH PATIENCE, AND LABORED FOR THE NAME OF JESUS.

BUT THEY LEFT THEIR FIRST LOVE…..THE LOVE THEY HAD FOR FATHER GOD, FOR JESUS. FOR EACH OTHER.

NOTHING MENT ANYTHING TO JESUS WITHOUT THE LOVE.

AS WE SEE, IT WAS THE LOVE HE IS SEEKING AFTER.

1 John 4:16 NKJV

And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him.

John 3:16 NKJV

For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life.

GOD’S WHOLE MOTIVATION IS HIS LOVE FOR ALL MANKIND. GOD IS LOVE. JESUS IS GOD’S LOVE FOR US. TO SAVE US. TO HEAL US. TO HELP US

1 Timothy 1:5 NKJV

Now the purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from sincere faith,

PAUL TELLS TIMOTHY THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF THEIR TEACHING ABOUT JESUS CHRIST IS TO PRODUCE IN THE HEART OF THE BELIEVERS…..

LOVE FROM A PURE HEART

A GOOD CONSCIENCE

SINCERE FAITH

Romans 13:10 NKJV

Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the Law.

LOVE IS THE FULFILLMENT OF EVERYTHING GOD HAS BEEN WANTING FOR YOU IN YOUR FAMILY AND RELATIONSHIPS.

GOD WANTS US TO LOVE OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS “IN CHRIST”.

HE WANTS US TO LOVE OUR NIEGHBOR.

HE WANTS US TO LOVE OUR ENEMIES.

YOUR FAMILY IS THE PLACE YOU ARE TO GIVE LOVE.

HUSBANDS AND WIFE ARE TO LOVE EACH OTHER.

PARENTS LOVE YOUR CHILDREN.

CHILDREN LOVE YOUR FATHER AND MOTHER.

LOVE NEVER FAILS. IT WILL REMAIN FOREVER. HATE WILL FALL UNDER THE FEET OF JESUS CHRIST. GOD IS LOVE!

Mathew 7:24-29 NKJV

“Therefore whoever hears THESE SAYINGS OF MINE, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock; and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock”

“But everyone who hears THESE SAYINGS OF MINE, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand;
and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was it’s fall.”

And so it was, when Jesus had ended these sayings, that the people were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
