PROVEN LOVE
PROVEN LOVE All glory to him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by shedding his blood for us. He has made us a Kingdom of priests for God his Father. All glory and power to him forever and ever! Amen. —Revelation 1:5-6 Nobody loves you like Jesus… nobody! His love led Him to the cross. Our sins led Him to the cross. Our lovelessness toward Him led Him to the cross. He went there because that was the only way we could be freed from our sins. The shedding of His blood sets free all those who call upon His Name. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2HwtWLokSc We love Him because…

WE WILL SEE JESUS
WE WILL SEE JESUS “Listen! The Lord is coming with countless thousands of his holy ones to execute judgment on the people of the world. He will convict every person of all the ungodly things they have done and for all the insults that ungodly sinners have spoken against him.” These people are grumblers and complainers, living only to satisfy their desires. They brag loudly about themselves, and they flatter others to get what they want. —Jude 1:14-16 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCnqxVNXvw8 Brothers and sisters, it won’t be long until we see Jesus! Let us rejoice in this wonderful truth. For those who are going through difficulty, let us remember this truth— “For…

BEWARE OF DECEIVERS
BEWARE OF DECEIVERS I am writing to remind you, dear friends, that we should love one another. This is not a new commandment, but one we have had from the beginning. Love means doing what God has commanded us, and he has commanded us to love one another, just as you heard from the beginning. I say this because many deceivers have gone out into the world. They deny that Jesus Christ came in a real body. Such a person is a deceiver and an antichrist. Watch out that you do not lose what we have worked so hard to achieve. Be diligent so that you receive your full reward.…

OBEDIENCE & LOVE
OBEDIENCE & LOVE We know we love God’s children if we love God and obey his commandments. Loving God means keeping his commandments, and his commandments are not burdensome. —I John 5:2-3 The greatest command is that “You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind” and the second is like the first in that you must “Love your neighbor as yourself.” We are told that “The entire law and all the demands of the prophets are based on these two commandments” (Matthew 11:37-40). In First John 4:7-12 we read— “Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love…

OUR SOVEREIGN RULER
OUR SOVEREIGN RULER The Most High God rules over the kingdoms of the world and appoints anyone he desires to rule over them. —Daniel 5:21 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lay-r2g52SQ Woe to those arrogant leaders who think by their own power they are in positions of leadership. Those that do not acknowledge that it was the Lord God Almighty who set them in their office will likely use that office for their own selfish reasons and not for the best interest of the people they are over. Unfortunately, this is what Jesus meant when He said, “You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their…

JESUS IS THE ETERNAL SON OF GOD
THE ETERNAL SON OF GOD We proclaim to you the one who existed from the beginning, whom we have heard and seen. We saw him with our own eyes and touched him with our own hands. He is the Word of life. This one who is life itself was revealed to us, and we have seen him. And now we testify and proclaim to you that he is the one who is eternal life. He was with the Father, and then he was revealed to us. We proclaim to you what we ourselves have actually seen and heard so that you may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is…

COMING JUDGMENT
Most importantly, I want to remind you that in the last days scoffers will come, mocking the truth and following their own desires. They will say, “What happened to the promise that Jesus is coming again? From before the times of our ancestors, everything has remained the same since the world was first created.” They deliberately forget that God made the heavens by the word of his command, and he brought the earth out from the water and surrounded it with water. Then he used the water to destroy the ancient world with a mighty flood. And by the same word, the present heavens and earth have been stored up…
