December 25th 2009 Christmas Message Summary

Scriptures: Luke 2:14, John 3:16

God sent his only son Jesus to this world because he really loved us. That love brought us love and peace in this world, and in addition it gave glory to God.

The biggest goal and purpose has to come true for human beings in order for the heart to receive the fundamental glory. God’s biggest goal must come true too in order for him to be fully joyful. God’s purpose is love. God created human beings because he loved.

Jesus was the second version of God himself. God sent him because he loved us so much. This is why the world loving Jesus gives the father the greatest glory and the greatest joy. But unfortunately, in the world, God’s children hated his son. So rather than bringing God joy and glory, they caused God to feel sadness and anger.

People who treated Jesus with hate could not have peace. Peace only comes to those who treat Jesus with love. Those who treated Jesus with love naturally received salvation. Joy and peace couldn’t help but to come because they loved the one who loved them. In doing so, it brought joy and glory to God too. The outcome changes according to the way you treat the Lord.

We believe in Jesus because he is the Messiah and we do the things we are supposed to do, but the Lord has a purpose that is even more ideal than that. We really haven’t realized the great will he has for us. We are not doing as much as he intended for us to do. As a result, the Lord is not satisfied. Jesus’ heart is burning with so much worry right now, because his ultimate goal is for all of us who believe and follow the Lord to become the Lord’s perfect brides and live our lives with him forever.

Jesus says, “If we don’t love, you and I have nothing to do with each other.” Love produces what is eternal; it is not a physical kind of love, but a mental love. Your body loving the Lord physically by evangelizing and doing what he wants is also considered physical love. It’s a love that is at the surface. It is not a deep love. Your mind and your spirit must completely take the Lord as your own and make him yours; this is perfect love. In order for us to have perfect love, we must pray a lot. We must have deep conversations with the Lord.

Only those who’s spirits and hearts have actually loved the Lord, they are the only ones who are able to truly know about love; because they’ve done it. Only those who are able to live like that will be able to teach about it.

If you don’t live with this kind of faith, the Lord will not be satisfied. Even if you live for a lifetime loving the Lord, he will not be satisfied unless you love the Lord in the way he wants you to love him.

What does it mean to love with the Lord? There are 3 things.

1. You must communicate and love with the Lord.
2. You must confess your heart to the Lord.
3. You must become the Lord’s body by making yourself clean and pure.

Believing the Lord as the Messiah and going to services is simply the process of becoming the Lord’s bride. Only when you establish a relationship with the Lord through your spirit and your mind and always walk with the Lord as a bride, do you become a true bride of Jesus.

The mindset of those who have become the Lord’s lover and those who haven’t, are completely different. The way they live their lives are completely different too.

The Lord came as a groom and will come back as a groom. He comes for those who live with that mindset and live that kind of life. He doesn’t come just for the sake of those who are saved, but he comes to those who have pledged themselves to the wedding and guarded their hearts and live with a steadfast heart. The second coming and rapture are for the brides, not the guests.

In a wedding, the bridegroom goes for the brides, not the guests. People who live and love physically are like those who are the guests. But those who love truly and in the way the Lord wants are the brides that the Lord will come for. Love has to be achieved then there will be peace and joy.

Now we have been raised from the physical love to the mental and spiritual love. This is the ultimate level. To those who have received the Lord as brides will receive peace and joy.

If you love in the way the Lord wants, your faith will not be hard and you will be able to overcome all the hardships because of that love. If we love the Lord physically, then it will be hard to overcome and endure the tribulations that are to come.

Right now we are living in the domain of the rapture. We must not only think about the day we will go to heaven, we must live a rapture life every day for the sake of that day when it comes.

The Lord says, “You must receive me and love me in order to come into the domain of rapture. Then you will be satisfied and I will be satisfied. This will be the Christmas of Love, glory will go to God, and peace will come on the earth.”

Providence people are the symbol of love. We must fulfill the Christmas of love. Amen.
