I Jn.4: If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? 21 And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also. - “As they did to me, so I have done to them.”Jud.15:1-11

How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out! 34 “For who has known the mind of the LORD? Or who has become His counselor?” Rom.11 - Why does anyone think he can pass judgments on The Almighty’s laws? Don’t be afraid

A. Trust Jesus Completely Always be ready to give a defense to all who asks you about your hope I Pet.3:15 Always be ready to give a defense to all who asks you about your hope I Pet.3:15 - Moses said God was sending another prophet that all must hear Deut.18: Jesus informed His disciples that the Holy Spirit would give them all truth Jn.16: Saints must grow up into full maturity or they displease our Lord Heb.2:1-4 - Saints are mindful of others!

Heb.6 - Can anyone think of a better message that could be given to suffering Christians?

A. Christ Showed His Love For All Men B. Jesus Continues To Invite Everyone As Noah was saved through water men are to be saved through it today I Pet.3:20-21 As Noah was saved through water men are to be saved through it today I Pet.3: There is also an antitype which now saves us - baptism (not the removal of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ I Pet.3 - When a person obeys his conscience finally says good!

12 For the eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, And His ears are open to their prayers; But the face of the LORD is against those who do evil I Pet.3 Always Remember!
