How many will testify that they love the Lord? How many call Jesus their Lord? As you read the Bible you see through periods of time God allowed certain leeway. But with time and revelation where more was given more was required. In the last days with evil and deceit increasing the Lord is increasing His anointing.  With greater anointing comes great truth and thus more responsibility! Brothers and Sisters what worked yesterday will NOT work today! Each one of us is going to have to make a choice: "CHRIST or COMPROMISE ". It is an individual choice. 

Text: *Matt. 28:18-20 – note V.20 Go and teach others what Jesus has “COMMANDED” = to enjoin and give charge!

HOW CAN WE TEACH WHAT WE DON’T EVEN KNOW OURSELVES?

 |  | LOVE, the Christian motive to obedience.                                                                  
                                                   #1 REAL LOVE    

*ReadJohn 14:15 – (TPT) Loving me empowers you to obey my COMMANDS.

See 1 John 4:8-10 – God is LOVE – See Luke 1:37 – for with God NOTHING shall be impossible – LOVE never fails so by LOVE we can obey!

                                                 #2 REALLY LORD                    

*Read *Luke 6:46 – note “LORD” (KURIOS) = supreme in authority = FIRST & FINAL SAY! See Matt. 7:21-23 – Reality Check!

*Luke 22:42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless NOT MY WILL, but thine, be done.

                                                       #3 RIGHT LAW                       

*Read Matt. 4:17 – note “REPENT” (MET-AN-O-EH'-O) = to think differently – to put God back on top!

*Read Matt. 4:19 – note “FOLLOW” (DYOO'-TEH) = come hither after ME and be My disciple – disciplined in Jesus the Word!

*Read John 15:9-12 – note V.12 “LOVE” (John 13:34 ) How do we do that? By Jesus see V.9 again! STOP the COMPROMISE – “LOVE” never fails – “LOVE” thinks no evil! “LOVE” covers a multitude of sins! Ask God to shed His “LOVE” afresh in your heart – Rom. 5:5!

Illustration: #1. Suppose you had a thousand-acre farm, and someone offered to buy it. You agree to sell the land except for one acre right in the center which you want to keep for yourself. Did you know that in some areas the law would allow you to have access to that one lone spot? And that you would have the right to build a road across the surrounding property to get to it? So, it is with us as Christians if we make less than 100-percent surrender to God. We can be sure that the devil will take advantage of any inroad to reach that uncommitted area of our lives - “CHRIST or COMPROMISE Choose”. Our legal system is from the Courts of Heaven!
