Lesson i learnt from today's teaching from brother Eli was about love. Love is one of the doctrine of God. What ever we should do, we should love thy God with all our heart, which is the first commandment and the second is love thy neighbour as thy self. which he sited from the book of Matthew 22:37-39.
Then he forward explain, that we should love our enemies, is also a doctrine of Christ. loving our enemies and not hating them makes us to become the children of God because God is love, so we that call on God names we should posses the love of God in our heart and treat people with love and respect they deserve. Even if our neighbours offends us we should treat them with love and respect not just enemies, even people we don't know we should accord the same respect and love to them. That's we should always learn to treat people in the same manner we wish to be treated. Matthew 5:44-45; KJV:But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. loving your neighbour should not only be or come from our lips along, we should also learn the heart of giving, if your neighbour is hungry and you have food to give, don't withhold it from him or her, we should go ahead and feed him. Luke 6:35; NIV:But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked.
We should also learn to love for God is full of logic and wisdom .1Timothy 4
KJV:Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
