MAIN TALK UNDERSTANDING GOD THE SCRIPTURES

Daily Bible Thought > Col.1:7,8 Love In Spirit - Preach?

Col.1:7 even as you learned of Epaphras our beloved fellow servant, who is a faithful servant of Christ on our behalf,
1:8 who also declared to us your love in the Spirit.

The mark of a true worshiper's of God through Christ Jesus is love, talk and preach as we may, love is proof of our message to truth, and Spirit, but why? Love is not an act, muster up, to impress others, it is not because we are found in a group, and everybody is being positive, this type of love is not what Paul speaks too here. Paul speaks of a gift, a fruit of the Holy Spirit given too all the saints of God by the righteousness of Christ Jesus, in other words, a gift of the body of Christ Jesus.

Christ Jesus is the only true vine, and it is through Christ Jesus the true vine; the gift of Christian's love comes to the rest of the body, or the branches of the vine. So we cannot act as love, we are marked with the gift of love proving we belong to Christ Jesus. Thus, testing the spirit(s) is testing the truth against the gift of God's love towards His saints.

Unfortunately, without the Holy Spirit given the body of Christ Jesus neither can a person test the spirits to see if they are from God, but why? Simply put, scriptures will not test the spirit(s) completely whereas, the fruit of Holy Spirit as the mark of Christian's in love will; what does this mean?

John 5:39 "You search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and these are they which testify about me. 5:40 Yet you will not come to me, that you may have life. 5:41 I don't receive glory from men.

It means, the truth of scriptures is proven by what they produces in love. In other words, a group can have many biblical truth(s) but not produce the life giving fruits of the Spirit in love, thus, proving they have not received the imperishable life of Christ Jesus marked by love.

Christian's do not earn the unmerited kindness of God, they are given it by God's love, producing the mark of Christ Jesus in them by the law of love written into their hearts demonstrated by actions of love towards others, what type of love? God's love founded in the law of love, which does not harm neighbor. Thus, the this light exposes all darkness and teaches us what is God truth in Spirit. We need no one to teaches us about the actions of love, the foundation of Truth in Jesus Christ. Once again, preach as we may, perform great works, build massive institution of religion, but if the fruit is bad so is the tree.
