"I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life"

Father God, thank you for the love of the truth you have given me. Please bless me with the wisdom, knowledge and discernment needed to always present the truth in an attitude of grace and love. Use this blog and Northwoods Ministries for your glory. Help us all to read and to study Your Word without preconceived notions, but rather, let scripture interpret scripture in the presence of the Holy Spirit. All praise to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Ozzone 8-25 > We can always ‘come up higher’ in the Lord’s expectations

 


Yet another nail in the coffin of self-love heresy. Self-sacrifice is the Holy Spirit’s ultimate expression of love. It is Agape love, the love that Jesus displayed when He walked upon the Earth. Self-love is ‘selfish’ and contends with ‘lust’ as the lowest form of love. If you practice self-love, Jesus says, “Come up higher!”
