Good morning to you all! I hope you enjoyed yesterday's service in church ?⛪️ Always remember the sabbat day holy!!.
Yesterday I was in church, and the preacher teaches about LOVE and I decided to share what it means and why we must love our NEIGHBOURS.
LOVE is a strong affection or feelings towards somebody ST. Paul taught on love and its importance in the Christian community.
In the first letter to the corinthians, ST. Paul discussed all the qualities of Love, Paul said that love is the greatest and cannot be compared with any other gifts possesses by man.
Paul then Highlights the qualities of love saying;
"LOVE is patient and kind; Love is not jealous or boastful; it's not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. Love bear all things, believes all things; hopes all things; endures all things"( 1 Cor. 13:4-7)
The qualities of love, therefore, include the following ;
PATIENCE:
This is the quality of being able to endure suffering, anger, or insults.
HUMILITY:
This is the quality of being Modest, Moderate, and Decent in whatever you think, feel, say, and do.
FAITHFULNESS:
This is the quality of being loyal to God, Jesus, Parent, friends, and Others.
KINDNESS:
This is the quality of being able to think nice things about others and do them good.
SELF SACRIFICIAL
Love makes a person to put the interest of others first before his interest.
NON-JEALOUS
Love does not show bitterness against someone's achievement or success. It rejoices at the success of others.
OBEDIENCE: Love makes an individual obedient to the Commandments he/she is given.
Reasons why we must love our neighbors
Christian is commanded to love the neighbor by God.
God is Love, anybody who does not love does not know God.
Christians should love their neighbors to be an example to others.
Love of neighbors is one of the requirements to enter into the kingdom of God.
As we all know that all constituted authorities and commandments are instituted by God. As a child of God, let's all make sure we keep to this commandment given especially on Love. Love is the greatest of all Christian Virtues.
