AGAPE LOVE

                                                                                                     LOVE THE MOST EXCELLENT WAY                                                  ( PERFECT LOVE EMBODIED IN JESUS) 1Jn 4:7   Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 1Jn 4:8   He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. THE Children of Light, who abide in the Kingdom of Heaven, see the universe, and all that it contains, as the manifestation of one Law — the Law of Love. They see Love as the moulding, sustaining, protecting, and perfecting Power immanent in all things animate and inanimate. To them Love is not merely and only a rule of life, it is the Law of Life, it is Life itself. Knowing this, they order their whole life in accordance with Love, not regarding their own personality.

TRANSMISSION AND GLORIOUS RECEPTION OF MANTLE

2Ki 3:11  But Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the LORD, that we may enquire of the LORD by him? And one of the king of Israel's servants answered and said, Here is Elisha the son of Shaphat, which poured water on the hands of Elijah.  2 Kings 3:11 Elisha . . . which poured water on the hands of Elijah. Contrast between Elijah and Elisha The resemblances between Elijah and Elisha are occasionally so great, that it is scarcely surprising the one prophet is confused with the other. They both lived in one country and in one age. They were both the messengers of God to kings. They both wrought miracles, and even the same class of miracles, multiplying the widow’s off, and raising from the dead a mother’s only child. Last of all, the life-work of both was to withstand and witness against idolatry, and restore the worship of the true God in the land of Israel. And yet to the careful reader there is no contrast in the Bible more striking or complete. What John

The Sword of the Spirit. Use it often. “And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:” (Ephesians 6:17) The sword of the Spirit is the anointed word of God. This is the weapon that puts every wicked spirit running. It is written that the word of God is alive, powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing… (Hebrews 4:12). In other words, the anointed word of God is unstoppable. Of all the parts making up the armor of God, the anointed word of God is your only offensive weapon. All the others were given for protection. Every spiritual warrior understands the anointed power of the word of God. It’s significant that Paul calls the word of God the sword of the Spirit. This is because it is the anointing on the word of God that gives it power. Paul wrote, “And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: That your faith should not stand in the w

The Excellency of the blood covenant

Exo 24:1  And he said unto Moses, Come up unto the LORD, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship ye afar off.  Exo 24:2  And Moses alone shall come near the LORD: but they shall not come nigh; neither shall the people go up with him.  Exo 24:3  And Moses came and told the people all the words of the LORD, and all the judgments: and all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words which the LORD hath said will we do.  Exo 24:4  And Moses wrote all the words of the LORD, and rose up early in the morning, and builded an altar under the hill, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.  Exo 24:5  And he sent young men of the children of Israel, which offered burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen unto the LORD.  Exo 24:6  And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basons; and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.  Exo 24:7  And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the
