The Knowledge of Good and Evil vs The Spirit of God and The Love of God | Ep. 139
Description
What if your understanding of love and knowledge was completely turned upside down? Join us as we unravel the profound journey from living under the influence of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil to experiencing the transformative power of the tree of life, made accessible through Jesus' death and resurrection. We'll reflect on Jesus' critique of the Pharisees and the limitations of merely knowing right from wrong, exploring instead the depths of God's love, mercy, and faith that often get overlooked.
We'll tackle the pitfalls of worldly love and the dangers of possessing knowledge of God's commandments without embodying their essence. Reflecting on the story of Lot's wife and scriptures from 1 John, we emphasize the need for a heartfelt commitment to God's will, rather than a superficial adherence to rules. Through powerful examples from scripture and song, we illustrate how genuine deeds and compassion are essential to truly living out God's love, as opposed to merely understanding it intellectually.
Lastly, we delve into the pivotal role of the Holy Spirit and the supremacy of divine love in the Christian life. From the events of Pentecost to Paul’s teachings in 1 Corinthians 13, we highlight how the Holy Spirit empowers us to access everything we need for life and godliness, linking divine attributes such as healing, provision, and peace to the Spirit's work. We'll challenge you to embrace a biblical mindset rooted in agape love, moving beyond reformist thinking to embody the divine love that completes and restores us.
