Love not Hate

Attract people with Love. Don't push them away with hate.​

If your actions or words don't edify, you hate!

1 Corinthians 13:1-13 ESV​

If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing. Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; ...

Romans 12:17-21 ESV​

Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to do what is honorable in the sight of all. If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” To the contrary, “if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Galatians 2:20 ESV​

I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
As Christians, Jesus lives in you. Are your actions from Jesus?
Proverbs 15:1 ESV
A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.

Romans 3:23 ESV​

For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

Matthew 5:43-48 ESV​

“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven.
So your marching order is clear. Love everyone!

1 Corinthians 16:14 ESV​

Let all that you do be done in love.
Love is more than words.

Matthew 7:1-5 ESV​

“Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you. Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye.

There are so many other verses on Love but I can't put them all in.

Love and forgive. You don't have a choice as a Christian. I'm tired of seeing hate. Help me spread Love!

When people came to Jesus,they came with their problems--the blind, the deaf, the lame, people even telling Him that their loved ones had died."As compared to certain Christians ,did He "give them a scolding" for admitting the problem, that they were being negative,and reprimand them that they shouldn't admit to negative occurances? No, He could see they were lame, etc. If anything, we see He was "moved to compassion." Compassion, not judgement, not "scolding them, or holding a grudge against them because they admitted something was wrong.He wasn't contemptuous of them because they told Him what the problem is.He had no "attitude" about it,. To be Christlike, some Christians nowadays should be more like that, instead of letting their personal emotions get in the way. There's a saying, "You catch more flies with honey than vinegar."But they have to see their own faults to change them.

God's Love is all encompassing. Sometimes I have fallen short but God has nudged me back into His Love. There is no Heaven without God's Love.
Share His Love!

Jesus is our prime example of holy and pure life. Full of love, mercy and compassion for the lots, for the sick and for all sinners who came to Him trying to find answers to their own problems. If you really love someone, then, you will help them. feed them, clothe them, visit them when they are sick. If you do this, then Jesus is right there looking at you and what you are doing for others. Love one another as I have loved you.... says the Lord. Are we obeying His command?

True , whoever loves is a child of God and knows God.Whoever does not love does not know God, for God is love.All who love God must love their brother and sister also.True Chritians shows submissive to God's word and thankfulness for Christ 's salvation. They will rather uplift the body of Christ with true love not to propagate rebellion with hate.The bible says no one has ever seen God , but if we love one another, God lives in union with us, and His love is made perfect

I do agree with all that you have listed from the scriptures about love my friend. I would just like to add that we are instructed to chastise as well as correct, remove some from us and even hand others unto Satin. While that may all sound harsh yet I believe that can be done out of or in love yet on here where another only sees our words without seeing our facial expressions they don't realize that it is only out of love for them as well as love for anyone paying attention to what they have posted that we can even begin to do that without being silent at times.

I do know and realize that I'm not perfect. I'm always willing to pray; Lord if I'm wrong have mercy on me and forgive me in Jesus. Lord in Jesus be perfect in me and work through me to accomplish Your desires in me! Amen! Thank You Lord Jesus!
