LOVE sermon: Your “LOVE” of God’s Law
1.) The Law was never done away with because Scripture states in Matthew 5:18 that: The Law will NOT cease till heaven and earth pass away, and the earth is still here in 2025.
Therefore The Law is NOT done away with. Period, end of those who try to say otherwise.
Grace:
2.) Next point to realize is the Purpose of Grace.
Grace is for when you do your best to follow God’s Law but inadvertently trip= not deliberately break His Law.
For Hebrews 10:26 states that there is no sacrifice for your sins if you willfully break His Saturday 4th Commandment.
Therefore you NEED “both” Law AND Grace to be saved.
Following the Law is to develop Godly character, and Grace for when you “accidently” fail to do things properly.
AND
3.) You need a 3rd item which is LOVE.
Because God’s Bible states:
The Pharisees knew the Torah backward and forward, yet Yeshua called them out for missing the weightier matters: justice, mercy, and faithfulness (Matthew 23:23). And, even the best doctrinal fire without love's fire falls flat—it's like "a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal."
There is heart behind this—LOVE is a profound pivot,
and one that echoes straight from the core of Scripture:
If I have not love, I am nothing"1 Corinthians 13:2
FOR:
"If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge... but do not have love, I am nothing" 1 Corinthians 13:2.
Too many voices hammer just GRACE, and
other voices hammer just repentance and law-keeping with a clenched fist, turning obedience into a checklist that breeds resentment rather than transformation.
The Pharisees knew the Torah backward and forward, yet Yeshua called them out for missing the weightier matters.
The good news is= We TO COG are voices out there preaching exactly this:
That love—for God, neighbor, even your enemy—
isn't an optional add-on
but LOVE “IS”
the only gate to the Kingdom,
the fulfillment of every commandment Romans 13:10, and LOVE is the antidote to that "bad cop" WHO just enforces the law or the “bad cop” who just enforces Grace.
For LOVE to people is the character of the Father Himself, who even disciplines out of love, not wrath Hebrews 12:6.
Therefore lean hard into this FACT= blending repentance/law keeping with unapologetic calls to love as the non-negotiable Kingdom key.
We’ve now focus LOVE on tying it to end-times prep, obedience, and the danger of following The Law without the heart of “LOVING” following God’s Law/way of life.
To expound on this is for you to have love to God as BEING the first pivot to make you obedient to The Law.
For Sin is Transgression of the law 1 John 3:4 But you must make obedience sing instead of snarl. Because you are obedient because BECAUSE “BECAUSE” you “love” God!
It's the missing melody in so many wilderness cries, crying out to the sinners in the wilderness, to turn hearers from spectators to God’s sons and daughters.
Some just sing out Law, some just sing out Grace, but the true Prophet sings out ALL THREE:
Yes keeping God’s Law resonates with keeping God’s 4th Commandment which is “tying” love explicitly to Sabbath-keeping
as John 14:15-31. King James Version · If ye love me, keep my commandments. KJV
the EXPRESSION/The MANIFESTATION of your Love to Godis to keep His Commandments:
1 John 2:3-5 Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments.
He who says, "I know Him," and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
New International Version
In fact:
This is love for God: to keep his commands,… 1 John 5:3.
New
Living Translation
Loving God means keeping his
commandments,…
1 John 5:3.
Furthermore: It is also all in one’s “Attitude”.
So watch out:
God will not have people without
the love
to be obedient in His Kingdom.
It then is NOT a Burden, because YOU love his Law and never want His Law to end,
As that is the only way to have peace and happiness Worldwide.
REALIZE:
You do NOT want God’s Law to end! Because living in His. and by His Law. is truly peace and enjoyment of “HIS” written ways, AND following HIS 10 Commandment Laws Will bring peace to you & to this World.
IN Fact:
THE “ONLY” WAY TO BRING PEACE TO THIS WORLD,
is for everyone to follow God’s 10 Commandment Law.
That is just the 101 level though.
Editor’s Note: You MUST have a LOVE ATTITUDE: BECAUSE
LOVE is AN ATTITUDE. LOVE IS AN ATTITUDE TO SOMETHING. LOVE IS “YOUR” ATTITUDE.
And if you have not love= a LOVE ATTITUDE you cannot please God.
The BEST way to understand something is to UNDERSTAND the 3 above top of this page’s points COMPLETELY.
That means to understand the above 3 points:
1.) Law has to BE IN FORCE to have peace in this world without people killing each other, and people in the Place of Safety arguing over Saturday vs Sunday.
2.) Grace to restore your position in God’s sight “ONLY “when you accidently fall short inadvertently and do NOT willfully disobey God’s Law, and
3.) YOU LOVE of The LAW, BECAUSE you KNOW that is the ONLY way to live and the BEST way to live, and The Law gives you the most understanding. Click here: https://www.hwalibrary.com/cgi-bin/get/hwa.cgi?action=gethymnal&HymNo=90&hymtype=chorale
Therefore you LOVE the Law
Because Realize/REAL EYES: ONLY by following the Law will peace come to this troubled world.
And most importantly for yourself:
Without your love of God’s Law you are unwise, and CANNOT please God.
Psalm 119:97-176. King James Version ... O how love I thy law! it is my meditation all the day. 98 Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser.
In conclusion: YOU “MUST” HAVE LOVE.
So we TO COG state: That is is not enough to just follow God’s Law like the Pharisees did, BUT BUT BUT
you MUST: LOVE I THY LAW.
And that includes Love for KEEPING His Saturday 4th Commandment as ordained in His Law.
"O how I love thy law! It is my meditation all the day" Psalm 119:97
This expresses a deep affection for God's Law of His 10 Commandments.
Which then fulfils the 3 components NECESSARY for YOUR ETERNAL LIFE of: 1.) Keeping God’s Law 2.) Grace when you stumble 3.) and Love to God by OBEDIENCE to Him.
You MUST have all 3.
And LOVE of God’s Law is the Greatest of the 3.
New
King James Version
And now abide faith, hope, love, these three;
but the greatest of these is love.1 Corinthians13:13
O how love I thy law! It is my meditation all the day. Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser.
= YOU must have LOVE.
