Walk in Love

Classic Christianity – Spirit Controlled Living – Part 1 – 10-12-26

~ Proper Conduct in the Midst of Pagan Darkness: Why Paul Exhorts the Ephesians on Walking as Light

Be imitators of God, therefore, as beloved children, and walk in love, just as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us as a fragrant sacrificial offering to God.

But among you, as is proper among the saints, there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed. Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk, or crude joking, which are out of character, but rather thanksgiving. For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure, or greedy person (that is, an idolater) has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God

Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things the wrath of God is coming on the sons of disobedience. Therefore do not be partakers with them.. Ephesians 5:1-6

1. Historical Background: The Pagan Environment of First-Century Ephesus

To understand why Paul wrote with such urgency in Ephesians 5, we must look at the culture the Ephesian believers were pulled out of:

  • The Center of Artemis Worship: First-century Ephesus was a massive, wealthy Roman provincial capital in Asia Minor, world-famous for housing the Temple of Artemis (Diana)—one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

Law and Grace - Old and New

Classic Christianity – Do or Done – Part 2 – 8-12-26

~ You who are trying to be justified by the law have been severed from Christ; you have fallen away from grace. But by faith we eagerly await through the Spirit the hope of righteousness. For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. What matters is faith expressing itself through love. Galatians 5:4-6

The apostle Paul always told it like it was. He refused to allow any kind of fake law keeping. For he knew, that a little leaven spoils the whole loaf. In otherwords, if he would have allowed it, and did not write about it, people would automatically assume it was okay to try and keep part of the law. And so when these fake law keepers came into groups of people (local church assemblies) Paul would call them out on it. And he too was telling them that they were falling back under the law, because they had fallen from pure grace. They thought a little law was okay. They thought they could simply dismiss saying anything about it, not calling it out themselves, and cover their eyes to what they were seeing right before them.… Click to Read More And Follow Along With The Message

He First Loved Us

Classic Christianity – God’s Absolute Love – 7-06-26

~ “There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear, because fear involves punishment. The one who fears has not been perfected in love.” 1 John 4:18

~ It’s only when we understand the perfect Love of God for us, that we can stop being in fear of everything, including that of fear of punishment from God. Because once we understand that when we are in Christ Jesus, and He is in us, He did not put a spirit of fear in us, but He placed His Spirit of Love in our hearts. And as He renews our minds with Truth, this gets rid of the fear we have in us and it is His love that gives us the ability for His Love to flow through us, because Love lives in us. Everything is related to understanding the perfect Love of God. And remember, it’s not that we love Him, but that He first Loves us!

Love is the Greatest

Classic Christianity – Debt of Love – Part 2 – 6-30-26

~ “And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love; but the greatest of these is love.” 1 Corinthians 13:13

~ 1 Corinthians chapter 13 teaches us about the perfect Love of God. This as we have said is something we cannot produce ourselves. It has to be something that God does in and through us. We have to learn how to abide in the Holy Spirit for everything, including the Love of God towards others department. Everyday life will show us that we can’t but He can. And the summary of the chapter is that Love is the Greatest of ALL things. And folks, when we understand how much God has and continues to Love us, and He is long suffering, not wishing anyone to perish, we are left thanking Him for everything. Because He Himself, Scripture says, God is Love, and He fulfilled the Law for us. That is the True indicator of how much He loves us.

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16

Jesus is the Perfect Love of God

Classic Christianity – Debt of Love – Part 1 – 6-29-26

~ “For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. What matters is faith expressing itself through love.” Galatians 5:6

~ We constantly mess up in the love department with others as compared to God’s Love for us. And it is so important to remember, it’s only through the Holy Spirit flowing in and through us, can we bear the Fruit of Love ourselves. He is the vine and we are the branches. We cannot produce Love on our own. As much as the flesh wants to say, “look how good I am doing,” it completely fails in the God Love department. Only through abiding in God’s love for us, can we begin to allow His Love to flow through us, as we respond to others.

So don’t beat yourself up when you cannot produce Love, because no one can produce Love as God is always Love in pure form. Stand firm in the grace of God, and allow Him to teach you to trust in Him for all things, even in the Love department. For He will constantly be renewing your mind, and you will know when you respond in the flesh, and you will also know when you have responded in the Spirit.… Click to Read More And Follow Along With The Message

Jesus Wants His Love to Flow Through Us

Classic Christianity – Love One Another – 6-09-26

~ “A new commandment I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you also must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another.” John 13:34,35

~ When the body of Christ is hurting, we are to love one another. When someone in the body of Christ needs help, we are to help them in their time of need. If they need comfort, comfort them. If they need encouragement, encourage them. Also part of love is correcting them too, especially when someone is caught (trapped) in a sin. They need help. But we are to be careful that we don’t think of ourselves more highly than we ought, for we too could become trapped in a sin ourselves, without even realizing it. For example, there is the sin of idolatry that many have today that is so often ignored. Christians love their worldly idols, and have them in people, places and things. And if someone talks badly about their idol, they typically respond with anger themselves. This is how you know they or even you have an idol yourself. All of us were caught in the sin of idolatry.… Click to Read More And Follow Along With The Message
