We have become worshippers of The BEAST, There is no Such thing as "STRADDLING The FENCE" and Our Religious Leaders Know it. And they do not care.

Either you are or you ain't, Lovers of The Ways of GOD! How many times have you told anyone how much you Love GOD? When was the last time you said that you LOVE GOD, In The quietness of the night, when all was well, I said when, was the last time you told GOD, you LOVE him. I did not say you gave thanks. And do we really love Him, and His Son, Do we love him will all of Our soul , mind, our strength and all of our being,.?

…"Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is One. And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These words I am commanding you today are to be upon your hearts."

Do sometimes tears run down your eyes and you tell Him how much you love Him as his love flows and running through your very soul?

If not could we be actually nothing but worshippers of the beast, and don't know it;.

Nothing but "Idol " worshippers.

John 14:21
Whoever has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me. The one who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and reveal Myself to him."

John 14:23
Jesus replied, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word. My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.

New American Standard Bible
“If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.

Dear Brother, @PloughBoy

19 We love Him because He first loved us. 20 If someone says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? 21 And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God [must] love his brother also. 1 John 4:19-21 NKJV

The complexity of even trying to explain what "Love" means is beyond me, and the Greeks required more than one word in their attempt to explain it! I need not tell you that beloved brother!

One thing I have come to find out about "Love" is we truly had no understanding of Who "Love" is, which we know only in part, and what eternity is for, but in Christ's obedience we who believe in Him know that in part it is sacrificial in nature.

God opened my eyes to this necessary application of "Love" in my very own life's dealings with others.

My Hope.

17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what [is] the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; 19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God. Ephesians 3:17-19 KJV

With the Love of Christ Jesus dear brother.

Hello @PloughBoy, and @Christ4Ever,

Only God knows my heart, and I must therefore leave knowledge of what it contains to Him. For I do not look inward.

'God commendeth His love towards us, in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.'

Now,THAT, I can know for a surety, because I believe what God says, and trust in His word: but my feelings are fickle, and untrustworthy at best: but the word of God brings me to tears of gratitude and praise, and I do express that to God in prayer, yes.

Thank you
In Christ Jesus
Chris
