RE: Love or Lust?

in #love4 years ago (edited)

Yes, @mustapham4 ...

"Some of us have also turned our relationship with God to a lust affair instead of a love affair. We love Him not for who He is but for what we can get. For such people, when God does something great in their lives, they say He is faithful and when things do not go as they expect, they begin to complain. If you are that type of person, I want you to repent. Love God for who He is and not for what you can get. Now, if God does not give you what you want, will you still love Him?"

... as was true in the time of our Lord, so it is to this day. Seeking after the gifts, rather than the Giver. The very Author of Life ... Here in America, there are even those who have turned this into a hellaciously "slanted" theology - Prosperity Theology. Our Lord did not teach this. Nor does His life's example to us provide any support for it. If anything, quite to the contrary ...

Nice work on this post. Keep it up!

P.S. I have written to you elsewhere. And now leaving, until I "hear" from you again, to get on with my day ...
