Rooted and Grounded in the Love of Christ - Tim Conway

- The starting point in the Christian life is not our love for Christ, but His love for us. When we are planted in the love that Christ has for us, it will cause us to respond with love towards Him. We greatly need to be rooted in the love of Christ so that nothing in this life can move us.

Before Adam fell, he was agape love just like the Father. Made in His image. When he fell, he became selfish and in need of love. His words reveal self. "It was the WOMAN YOU gave me". True, even christians do/say for what they will get out of it.
I'm glad I was lead to watch, confirms so much the Spirit has been showing me.
Ty. This is what I've been meditating on for years. We give back and out to others what we comprehend. "To know" in the Greek is personal, intimate and experiential. The more we comprehend, the more Christ like we are. The more we fulfill the law, naturally. There's no trying. It just flows. We are filled with the fullness of God. The soil is the love of Christ.
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.
James 1:17

Carson White HOW CAN I LOVE CHRIST ABOVE EVERYTHING? I ONLY FEAR HIM (SENDING ME TO HELL)
@@leviackerman6678, once you know His love for you, you will love Him back. Spend time in reading the New Testament and His love for you will be revealed.
He drank the hell we deserve for our sins in our place, what a sacrificial love. believe in that

Seeking holiness first, nothing wrong with that. without holiness no one will see the Lord (He 12:14)
Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness (Matt 6:33)
Look to the Lord, His strength, seek His face always. (Ps 105:4)
appreciate your sermon. bless you. shalom
Elim amen,without holiness no one shall see the Lord. However, our holiness only comes from Christ given to us when He saves us. Not our own holiness :) 2 Corinthians 5:21 “For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” I respectfully ask, do you believe this? Blessings.

(2Cor5:21)justification is 100% God's work.
(Eph 2:8-10) (2Tim1:9-10) salvation by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, according to the scripture alone, for the glory of God alone.
Whereas sanctification is both God and believer working together.
(matthew 5:8) beatitudes. Blessed r the pure in heart, for they will see God.
love you
Elim amen Elim! I completely agree, we’re on the same page, which is great! I was under the impression that when Tim was warning against seeking holiness first was in the context of being saved and not sanctification? I could be wrong. Bless you!
I m the Son of my Father, the Son of David, King of Israel.
Though sermon was for born again christian.... LOVE OF CHRIST AFFECTS UNBELIEVING TO SALVATION. Muslims who convert to CHRIST are in majority either the Love of CHRIST from a Christian who comes in contact with the MUSLIM or dreams of CHRIST some of which are re-occurring they experience unto belief.
Just thinking about those two commentaries, I would go with Martin Lloyd Jones because it is the supernatural work that the Holy Spirit is bringing to our bodies that He built up Eph 2:22, that He might make known to the principalities etc, (Eph 3:10) by the Church the manifold wisdom of God. What God is doing in the human body is supernatural. So no it's not our love but the love God is in us showing to the powers. But see if you see that view.
I am struggling with accepting the love of the Christ. Not on a mental level, but on a heart level. I spent a good portion of 42 years in and out of the Jehovah’s Witness faith (credulity). I am so afraid that my heart is too hardened to allow Christ in. I am seeking and praying on a daily basis. I am consumed with really getting it. How do I soften my heart enough to allow Him in?
I just literally, got out from ONE YEAR season where this fear of having a hardened heart plagued my spiritual life, its been almost a week now. Around last year, I was so afraid my heart was too hardened. When I was born again 6 years ago, Jesus was all I could think of, prayer and reading the bible was effortless, but then besetting sin, busyness and workaholism stole my prayer life. I was no longer joyful. Lost first love. Up till end of last year was the worst. I still went to church, pray, I made effort to go to bible study. I learned, but alone time with God became left overs, and my soul felt it, I spent many nights in tears missing Jesus. I thought many bible study and church and serving would improve spiritual life. Its not like I don't know he's there, I know he's there, but he feels distant. Though he was distant, he was faithful in teaching me. But I wanted to come back to that good place. In my prayers I cry out Lord im scared my heart has been hardened, I'm scared its too late, I feel like all I do is fruitless. I know the devil has also tried to kill my faith, that I was done for. BUT THEEEEN In His timing, God swiftly, and I mean SWIFTLY turn things around. Somehow, he lead me to read the Song of Solomon (check out Tim Conway's series), really reading it and praying over it. God came to me in such a way, that I can't make it through the day if I don't pray in the morning, and its not like I tried to pray, but I needed to. For the first time after a long time since I was born again, I lost track of time praying and spending time with the Lord. Without realising it, my heart that was hard no longer felt hard. I was even more sensitive to sin, even the smallest thoughts. I have no appetite for entertainment, or social media which I spent too much time in. Everything feels so different, and I literally cannot recall the feelings I had where I was so down last year, even now it feels surreal. All I did was getting more honest in prayer the hungrier I got. God didn't care about my dutiful prayers, my many lists of petitions, he wanted my heart. One night I was going to bed, thinking, ok bed time, let me say a few prayers, then the spirit stopped me and asked me, what is REALLY in your heart? Well I couldn't run away, I just told him my number one fear is the hardening of my heart. Yet all year, in all my fears, I thought I could manage it by more prayer, more church, but I never been that honest to God. This was also a time of testing I believe. Then softening of my heart is God's work. Up to that point, I think the spirit made me despair in all I did, saying to me if I don't eat from Christ, all I do is fruitless. He made me lose appetite for a lot of things that distract me from Jesus. I sowed and I didn't reap anything. My own tiredness and emptiness drove me to God. If you are aware of the state of your heart, that is God given, but Satan wants you to believe you are beyond saving. Satan bothered me with that thought for one good year. I held on, but it was only last week I tasted total victory. Have you been radically honest in your prayers? Tell Jesus that you are afraid that your heart is too hardened. During my time of testing, I just held on to Ezekiel 36, dry bones can be made alive, a hardened heart can be turned into flesh. Just hold on a little longer. Jesus appeared to the disciples when they were tired and empty handed in John 21. Its been almost a week, and my heart (it has never been this constant and steady), just feels like, everything is nice and lovely ahhahaha.
@Right Wing Geek Squads bless you!
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. Trust in Him. He bore all our sins. Trust in His work on the cross and trust in Jesus. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved
You need to experience Christ’s love, that comes by the Spirit of God. Pray for his presence and Spirit
