Title: The String of Love
Contents
There are two lines where God leads people. When you accomplish God's will with these two lines, your will will be done on earth as it is in heaven. One line kills the old person, and one line brings the new person back to life.
This is because, in order to make the children of God who belong to the same blood and flesh as fully holy children, they must be human cords, that is, cords of love.
Therefore, Jesus, who belonged to flesh and blood, entrusted David's mouth about the cords of man, the cords of love, saying, "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff comfort me. You have done it” (Psalm 23:4). The staff is the cord of love, the cord of life, and the staff is the cord of a man, the cord of death.
Just as night and day do not have a single point of error, death and life also have no single point of error, so there cannot be a single point of error between the line of people and the line of love. Therefore, to the extent that the outer man is destroyed by the cords of man, the inner man is renewed through the cords of love. It is the same evidence as it is written, “Therefore, we do not lose heart, though our outward man perishes, but our inwardly is renewed day by day” (2 Corinthians 4:16).
For this reason, those who forsake the bonds of men are rejecting God, who has given us the bond of love, the Holy Spirit. It is written, “Finally, brethren, we beseech you and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that we have received from you how you ought to walk and what pleases God, that is, what you are doing. You know what God has given you. This is the will of God, your holiness, that is, that you put away from sexual immorality, that each one should know how to take his own wife in holiness and honor. Do not harm us, for the Lord is the vindication of all these things, as we have told and testified to you in advance. For God does not call us to unclean, but to sanctify; therefore he who forsakes does not reject man, but gives you his Holy Spirit You have rejected the God who gave you” (1 Thessalonians 4:1-8).
Forsaken means to forget or break the rules or obligations that one should observe. Faith in God and in Jesus Christ, whom he has sent, has faith. The principle of faith is the cord of man, the cord of love.
The Bible testifies, "Therefore, holy brethren, who are together in the heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our doctrine" (Hebrews 3:1), and also, "Therefore, we have a great high priest, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our faith” (Hebrews 4:14) and testify again, “The one who promised is faithful. And let us not forsake our gatherings, as is the habit of some, but encourage them, and do all the more as you see the day drawing near” (Hebrews 10:23-25).
When the human cord and the love cord are the same and become one, the human cord, that is, the cord of love, will come true. Amen, thank you Lord.
