May 6th 2007: 3/4 "THE BATTLE WITHIN"- GODS AMAZAING LOVE --How does God demonstrate His Love Towards Me?-- 1) By not hiding behind a mark 2) By rescuing me from my greatest enemy --From the guilit of my past --From a mesaningless life --From the fear of death 3) By joining forces with Me. 1 John 4:7-12 (New American Standard Bible) God Is Love 7(A)Beloved, let us (B)love one another, for love is from God; and (C)everyone who loves is (D)born of God and (E)knows God. 8The one who does not love does not know God, for (F)God is love. 9By this the love of God was manifested (G)in us, that (H)God has sent His only begotten Son into the world so that we might live through Him. 10In this is love, (I)not that we loved God, but that (J)He loved us and sent His Son to be (K)the propitiation for our sins. 11(L)Beloved, if God so loved us, (M)we also ought to love one another. 12(N)No one has seen God at any time; if we love one another, God abides in us, and His (O)love is perfected in us Hebrews 9:15 (New Living Translation) 15 That is why he is the one who mediates a new covenant between God and people, so that all who are called can receive the eternal inheritance God has promised them. For Christ died to set them free from the penalty of the sins they had committed under that first covenant Romans 8:1 (New International Version) 1Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus Hebrews 2:14-15 (New International Version) 14Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might destroy him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil— 15and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death Romans 8:38-39 (New International Version) 38For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[a] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 6:23 (New International Version) 23For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in[a] Christ Jesus our Lord Lincoln Avenue Baptist Church Orange Ca http://lincolnavenueonline.com Lincoln Avenue is a community of Christians Serving North Orange County Ca.

Permanezcamos en el amor 7 Queridos hermanos, amémonos los unos a los otros, porque el amor viene de Dios, y todo el que ama ha nacido de él y lo conoce.8 El que no ama no conoce a Dios, porque Dios es amor.9 Así manifestó Dios su amor entre nosotros: en que envió a su Hijo unigénito al mundo para que vivamos por medio de él.10 En esto consiste el amor: no en que nosotros hayamos amado a Dios, sino en que él nos amó y envió a su Hijo para que fuera ofrecido como sacrificio por el perdón de[a] nuestros pecados.11 Queridos hermanos, ya que Dios nos ha amado así, también nosotros debemos amarnos los unos a los otros.12 Nadie ha visto jamás a Dios, pero si nos amamos los unos a los otros, Dios permanece entre nosotros, y entre[b]nosotros su amor se ha manifestado plenamente.[c] 06/05/07 06.05.07 06/05/2007
