1 John 4:8- He That Loveth Not Knoweth Not God; For God Is Love by PRINCESSO2: 1:59am On Sep 19, 2015
God loves us so much. I can tell you because I has felt the deep, everlasting love while praying.
It is written in Bible- John 3:16- For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.



It is written-God shows his love to us while we were yet sinners,Christ died for us

Romans 10- 8But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

Romans 8 - 38For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 8:1- There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit
You know,Christ just gave us two commandments-

Look at what Christ said-

Matthew 22- 37Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38This is the first and great commandment. 39And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
For Christians our priority must be pleasing God in every way,putting him first in our life above our families,jobs or hobbies. And the golden rule is to treat others as you will like to be treated. Quite simple.If the temptation to do otherwise comes,just dwell on Jesus commandments above.

Matthew 7:21 -Not everyone that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Remember that James 1:22
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
What did Jesus do when he went into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.
He spoke the word of God.
Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. 2And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred. 3And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. 4But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.


Yes,we need the word of God.The bible says-James 4:7-Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
Christains-Hebrews 4:12-For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
When temptation comes, You need the word of God.
Dwell on this when the temptation comes to do otherwise. Matthew 22- 37Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38This is the first and great commandment. 39And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

However let not forget that God is a God of Justice-
Hebrews 9:27-And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
Acts 17:31-Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.

LISTEN-
Romans 3:23- For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
SO WE ALL NEED TO ACCEPT THE FREE GIFT OF SALVATION.

What did Jesus do when he went into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.
He spoke the word of God.
Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. 2And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred. 3And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. 4But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

When temptation comes, You need the word of God.
For fear-2 Timothy 1:7 -For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
For sexual immorality- 1 Corinthians 6:18
Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
if you feel guilt over past sins- Romans 8:1
There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
