 Yes, welcome back. This is Daisy Sako Show, forever gospel shawanist and sexual Africa. My name is Miriam Massava and I'm with DJ Nix and Tunendela on our Inspiration Vibes Tunendela, just where we left off last Sunday, last Sunday we came to this love series and we asked question, was guys what love means to you and if someone just tells you love is it enough for you? So we decided to break it down into three parts, not that those three parts that love, but just to break it down into three parts for us to be able to understand actually the true meaning of love according to the Bible. Please not, this is according to the Bible, not the way the world defines love, but the way God's defined love for us and the first part we looked at last Sunday was love is action and we read from the book of first joint chapter 3 from verse 11 to 18, the same way today we are also reading from the same verses and we focused majorly on verse 16 and verse 18 verse 16, now kumbushatu so that we catch up to shikanishi sisi wote, verse 16 is how we need to love sacrificially by emulating Christ who laid down his life for us. So we need to sacrifice our love okay and verse 18 emphasize that Jesus not only to love with words, but instead put actions into our words because saying I love you can never be enough and is never enough so you need to put actions into your love. So Christ did, Christ did not love us by words only, Christ went ahead and loved us with action by laying down his life for us, as he died for us we know Christ has no sin and is just perfect but he laid down his life for us who are sinners so that we can have a new life. Okay continue to nendelea leo our our part 2 of love series is love is truth, love is truth from the book of first joint 3 11 to 18 God is love you know God is love and he commands us to love one another because you know love obedience rashiznes those are just evidence of a believer so yeah and if we have to emulate Christ hey we have to emulate Christ remember that Jesus delivered the truth in love the way you deliver the truth you do it in love okay so the for instance let's look for for a example because Christ gave us so many examples if you read in the book of New Testament the the the whole book of in the Bible the New Testament you get to see many example various example Christ gave us just a just a way he deliver the truth in love for for instance the woman who committed adultery he was caught committing adultery and you know the Pharisees and the law liked testing Jesus they took her to Jesus and say this one according to the law this woman is supposed to be stoned to death because he has she has been caught committing adultery guess what Christ did he went if any of you has no sin please let him or her be the first one to throw a stone and kill this woman all of them left and he he told this woman go and sin no more he knew according to the law this woman supposed to be killed but the way he deliver that truth he did not come to condemn this woman he came to love this woman so he deliver the truth and told that woman go and sin no more because you know what I really love you another example is the Samaritan woman you know according to the Bible according to those times the Samaritan woman was supposed to interact with you but Jesus interacted with her and told her go call your husband this woman was like I may have no husband Jesus knew he was he said yes I know you have no husband actually you have been married five times with five husband and the current one you're living with is not even your husband but go sin no more he has in the way he expressed the truth he expressed it with so much love that you even live you are just happy you're not condemned you don't don't feel ashamed of yourself he deliver the truth in love you know I came about this love series when I was doing my devotion in first John chapter 3 just first John the entire first John and I would encourage you also to go read first John do your devotion in the book of first John and I was strongly convicted on how we treat others we treat people around us so I let you na kwa sanana muntu how do you treat them how do you treat them because most of us when we kwa sanana m say we just avoid that person we block them to know blocking eka ma Facebook Twitter vile vile batie upenda kwa imba unamblock Facebook Twitter everywhere you avoid that person but is that the way Christ to love us to treat others so if Christ is the best example and only example of what love is then then why am I why are we avoiding others why are we treating others just because to make kwa sanana kwa rosana toki dogo kuna ka issue then we are blocking them how comes when someone runs me instead of approaching the disagreement in love and in truth I avoid the person yeah I had to submit a bible from the book of first John chapter 3 verse 11 to 18 but I will focus on verse 18 which says dear children let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth so we put our actions in our truth okay so we love generally we love honestly we love we love with truth so for you to understand this truth you need to go back to the word and understand how did God love us from the beginning from the present how does God love us now and how will God love us in the future you need to understand God love from how it is seen from the beginning when it is seen now in the present and how it is seen in the end in the future and you can use the same method even to deal with the issues so umbe kwa rosana namutu it has a genesis it has a foundation go back to the foundation understand the genesis of that your disagreement and the issue handle it handle how will you how is the person feeling right now because of that issue that any mili kwa rosana maybe kitambo how is the person feeling right now and how what is the way forward of that issue so how you handle it you can emulate how God loves us from the beginning from in the present and to the end okay in the future so everything God has spoken was true is true and will always be true okay moving on so if we if i love somebody i want to love that person based on God's definition of truth and how do you know the definition going back to the word so umbe kwa rosana namutu it has a word also go back and read to understand the definition of love from the bible not based on our human understanding because the world defines love differently that is not the way God wants us to love each other God wants us to love each other by going back to the bible to the truth to understand what love is so love is truth and only the truth of God if i want to love you not just in once but in actions and in truth so i want my actions to be based on the truth of God's love so don't go anywhere next Sunday to tender layer that marks of the end of love is truth so next Sunday to tamalizia the our love series yes i hope you've been blessed keep on interacting with us if you have any question kama kawidama handle is miriam underscore masava across that is twitter and instagram ask one questions if you have any and i hope you've been blessed in inspiration by nix yes
