JUST FOR TODAY: How important is "Love"??

JUST FOR TODAY: Well, next Tuesday is Valentine's Day; A day we celebrate "Love".  So I thought it most appropiate to preach on 1st Corinthians, chapter 13; the "Love" Chapter as everyone calls it.  Just how important is "Love" anyway?  You can make a list of everything in the world and all things will be behind "Love".  Mainly because the Bible tells us that God is "Love" so that in itself makes it the most important thing in all the Universe.  Then Jesus tells us the most important of all the commandments is to "Love" God.  And then Jesus added this right behind it, "Love one another as I have Loved you".  And then....as Paul explains to us about "Spiritual Gifts" and how we are all different but important parts of the Body of Christ in Chapter 12, He closes the chapter with this "......yet I show to you a more excellent way."  And that my friend is the way of "Love".  Please read chapter 13 for yourself and then ask yourself this question: Is "Love" the most important thing in my life??  If you cannot honestly answer "yes", then adjustments in your life are certainly in order.  May god richly bless you with His Love, ~Pastor Lynn
