Whence does love come?

[Guest guest]

Love is so very important! Should we not look whence love comes?

Have you not heard it said, " Compassion whence love is born. " ?

Where there is no Compassion there can be no love

anymore than joy where there is no Faith.

Like Faith, Compassion is also one of the seven Spirits of God

that are His eyes. Walk ye in them and be seen of Him.

Warning! Do not despise Faith or Compassion in the least for they

are not small things. They are huge things! Scripture reveals them

to be two of the seven angels of God.

Doubt is one of the evil angels and it comes forth a fiery serpent

bitting with the venom of fear, bringing you at some point before

the prince of terror if ye keep eating of it. Eat not of this bread

that ye

may have life more abundant.

Doubt is what keeps us from Faith. If you allow yourself to have

Doubt,

then you are snared and taken.

Now I come to the point. There is another one of the evil angels

and this one is breathing fire upon the earth as you read this. It

is this one that

keeps us from Compassion, whence love is born. It is Enmity that

brings forth hate.

I have found very few Christians that know when asked, " What is

Enmity? "

The simple definition is, " The spirit of an enemy " . We have all seen

people like

this. Have we not all of us done this thing at times? Enmity hurts

the one who has

it first with a burning fire. The fire that can not be quenched is

distress, the penalty

of which has no respect of person.

So, do I lie here? Is Enmity a small thing to be cast aside. Do you

not hear its cries

of war ringing in your ears as you read this. Scripture shows that

it is required that

Enmity be abolished from you. Required!

If you be free of your Doubt and receive strong Faith, it is nothing

if there be hate

found in you and five other things as well.

Romans 8:7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it

is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

Ephesians 2:15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the

law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself

of twain one new man, so making peace;

Ephesians 2:16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one

body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:

I exercise an on going vigilance for scripture that indicate the

seven Spirits

of God that are His eyes. This is far from complete but here is what

I have so far.

23:23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for

ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the

weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought

ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

Zechariah 7:9 Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Execute true

judgment, and show mercy and compassions every man to his brother:

Micah 6:8 He hath showed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth

the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to

walk humbly with thy God?

Proverbs 3:3 Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about

thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:

9:24 But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he

understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the LORD which exercise

lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in

these things I delight, saith the LORD.

1 Kings: 6 And said, Thou hast shewed unto thy servant

my father great mercy, according as he walked before thee in truth,

and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with thee; and thou

hast kept for him this great kindness, that thou hast given him a son

to sit on his throne, as it is this day.

6 Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and

will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth.

7 And I will cause the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel

to return, and will build them, as at the first.

8 And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have

sinned against me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, whereby

they have sinned, and whereby they have transgressed against me.
