MANY WATERS CANNOT
QUENCH LOVE, NOR CAN THE FLOODS DROWN IT, IF A MAN WOULD GIVE FOR LOVE
ALL THE WEALTH OF HIS HOUSE IT WOULD BE UTTERLY DESPISED........SONG OF
SOLOMON 8:7 |
|
TRUTH IS
STRONGER THAN BLOOD
(and
our love for Jesus can be quenched) |
|
It takes a little concentration to find 'The (ultimate) Way'
..it surely doesn't come easy and we have God's Word on that
.....click.
Eros love and Philia love can be quenched but what of
Agape love/God's love?
Eros/Erotic, sexual love and Philia love, friendship love
can surely be quenched as we all know, some more than
others. But as Solomon says...God's love can not be
quenched, priced or bought, yet all our (ungodly)
thirsts, hungers and misguided thoughts are and can be
quenched drowned and deleted in/by his love.
In the short but wonderfilled time I have known Jesus the
Christ, I have never read one scripture/oracle of the
Christ's that wasn't brimming with his Royal love. Truth
is stronger than blood when Jesus is preeminent ....click.
This same love that is found in his truth/doctrine is
heavily laden with power, strength, deliverance, wisdom,
understanding and knowledge, joy and peace to mention a few
of the benefits we encounter through his holy (water)
word...click.
Which is why I believe it is a peculiar brand of love
indeed, otherworldly and obviously the ultimate in
ways/directions to travel in, leading all who obey his word to supreme utopia
for eternity eventually, ref/heaven.
Once this truth and the love thereof is embraced we find it
to be stronger than even blood. What I mean is we begin to
love Jesus even more than we love our wife, mother,
children, money, self, husband, sister,
brother, dad, friends and relatives. This could cause
complications.
The world and the religions of the world, along with worldly
goodies and worldly peoples whether inside churches or
outside are exposed for what they really are.....dead weight
and vanity, God calls humans 'vapour' at their best.....ref/Revelation 22:14, 15......click.
When the word/ the Christ and his love gets a firm grip on
you and you on Him, no blood, philia, or eros relationship
can compare, truth is stronger than blood. Agape love
looks out for the ultimate welfare of the soul not the
immediate comfort of the flesh and pride of men and women.
Mashiah's truth has only ever led me deeper and deeper into
his love and love for him resulting in treating all peoples
equal and desiring the ultimate for them all....eternal
life rather than me saving face and them receiving eternal-living-hell.....click.
A goodly example of 'God's Love' upon a creature was
the OT story of the two cows with the ark of the covenant on
them...yes, truth is stronger than blood. At the end of the
day it is my love for Jesus and his love for me that makes us
one as Father is one with Mashiah, neither can be absent,
lest we be deceived.
Truth is stronger than blood, eros love and philia
love all put together. And without the Christ shedding his
blood we would all be simply stuck with lies, eros and
philia love on the highway to hell and arriving on time.
There is only one blood compatible with the absolute
truth/the Christ's Doctrine and that is the Christ's, what a
profound blessing. God's Love can never be quenched but men
and women can quench their love for Him by
sin/ongoing-known-unrepented-sin. Unless St. Paul is a
liar......Hebrews 3:12-15.....Amen |
