  • The Fuel Of Love

    Wednesday, May 17, 2017

    Messiah told the Pharisees, “He who is forgiven much, loves much. He who has been forgiven little, loves little”. We’re all separated, infinitely distant from God and we infinitely need His infinite forgiveness. It’s not a matter of who’s sinned more or less. The one who loves more is the one who realizes how much they’ve been forgiven of – and who receives it. The Pharisee to whom Messiah spoke these words didn’t believe that he had much to be forgiven for. Most believers fall into this. And when one believes one has not been forgiven much, one will love little, rejoice little, and glorify God little. But those who know their sin and the price that was paid for their sins, know that without God, there is nothing. They’ll have joy and love throughout their lives and will live all-out for God. You have been forgiven much— an eternity of judgment. That’s enough for you to become a person who loves, forgives, rejoices, and lives much— all out, because Messiah’s done all that. That’s enough for you to live a life full of loving, rejoicing and glorifying the Lord.
    From Message #730 - The Pharisee And The Prostitute

    Scripture: Acts 3:19

    TODAY'S MISSION - Take time today to ponder how greatly you were forgiven in Messiah – and what that means for your life. Now apply that to your life and to everyone around you.
