Blessed be the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, welcome for learning God’s word.
Have you ever ask yourself why the bible says love is as powerful as death?
Song of Solomon 8:6 “Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame.”
God’s love for us! It is equated with Man’s love for his partner. Just as a husband loves his wife, As Christ loves us. And when a person is deeply immersed in love he has something to do with that love, and that is nothing but Jealousy! .. these two things are Twins! .. go together ..
Likewise Christ also loves the church and not only loves but also envies it. If his beloved people turn away from him, then his jealousy will be aroused, and he will be able to do anything, just as a man who has been betrayed by his wife.
But today we will learn how powerful the love of Christ is!
The Bible says “Love is as powerful as death”. That is, if we understand the power of death, then we will understand the power of Christ’s love for us.
As we know the Man who is suffering from Death, is no longer alive, he is automatically lost, his memory is lost on earth, he can do nothing or any activity of this world.
In the same way, a person who enters and immerses himself in the love of Christ, the love of Christ kills him and all the things of the world. .. and nothing can separate him from Christ ..
Romans 8:33-35
33. Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifieth.
34.Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
35.Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
Have you today fallen into the love of the Son of God ?? ..
Remember you cannot conquer the world if you do not die for the sake of the world.
John 15: 9-11
9. As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.
10.If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love.
11.These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.
Why can’t you conquer alcoholism today ?, is it because the love of Christ has not entered into you, which would kill all the power of drunkenness, as well as why today you cannot stop adultery, prostitution, theft, murder etc? it’s because in you there is no the the love of Christ in you, which would cause you to die for sin, that is why the world still has power over you.
But the good news is, Christ is still alive and saving! When you receive him with all your heart and repent all of your sin, he will enter into you and his love will kills all devil works within you and you will be free from them and you won’t see hard in living a life of pleasing God. Remember “LOVE IS POWERFUL AS DEATH”.
So if you want death in all the works of the devil over your life, immerse yourself in the love of Christ. Because Christ Himself cannot allow you to be bothered by the things of this world !, so He must kill all the works of the devil within you.
So if you haven’t yet enter in Christ’s Love, repent today and stay away from sin, and find the true baptism in many waters and in the name of Jesus Christ. And because Christ is loving, He will bring you into His love and give you eternal life.
Maran atha!
