Today I wish to talk to you all about what I call the three principles of Heaven. Patience, faith and love. This three words have such a great meaning throughout the Bible and within our everyday lives. How is do these words pertain to our daily life? How do you know which to use? And many more questions I hope to answer through the course of this passage.
1. Patience: Patience is the first principle. It is a simple, but yet a rather hard thing for us as human beings to comprehend. We strive to be steadfast in the Lord but yet we exclude patience form the equation. What is patience? Patience is the ability to endure. This simple definition can be interpreted many ways do to and unspoken time frame. Patience is a lasting endurance. Lasting meaning it last forever. We as Christians must have this type of patience. To be steadfast in the Lord and to allow him to rule in our lives require our patience not our help. God doesn't need us in other to bless us. ~He's never late, He's seldom early, but He's always on time.~ This is a phrase used to describe God's blessings. If were be patient and allow God to have his way, this would be the far greater solution to our troubles. Patience is determined by our state of mind. But the patience needed to be Steadfast in the Lord is a spiritual patience. A patience that would guide us through our life. This patience has often be called the "Spirit of God" or " The Holy Spirit". This patience must act as a conscience. It must give us peace in times of trouble. Without this patience it is impossible to get into Heaven. The Lord's patience is always with us, so how bout we give our patience to Him.
2. Faith: Faith is the basic need of Christians. But what is faith and how do we acquire it. Faith is hope and the belief of future results that are unseen or not yet determined. We as Christians must have faith in the Lord's ability to provide for us. Faith is not inherited. Faith is taught. The Bible says how can you here without a preacher and how a he preach unless he be sent by God. Faith is not prayer as many may believe. Faith is the long sovereign of the belief of God's power. We must have a great amount of faith to please God. Sure we stray away, but that is why Jesus died for us, so that we may have a chance at the tree of life. It is our duty to have faith in the Lord as he has made us in his image and continuously showered us with blessings. Where is your Faith?
3. Love: The most important quality of all. Without love both faith and patience is meaningless. It is impossible to please God with out love. But what love are we wanting. Love towards things in not love it is lust, a common misidentification for the emotion love. Love towards a women is also false. The love that matters is agape love. "Divine, unconditional love" Love is an action not a noun. And you must show love daily. Agape love is a love that means that you must love your enemies as yourself and strangers as your family. God says how can a man love God but hateth his brother. You can not despise one another and expect to get into Heaven. God did not design it that way. In order to achieve this agape love you must first be born again and become one with the Spirit of God. Only then and then alone will you be able to show love as the action that it is supposed to be shown as.
The three principles of Heaven are simple terms, but made hard by the stubbornness of man and the loathing of mankind. Man's sinful nature prevents man from entering Heaven unless aided by the renewal of the soul through repentance and baptism. To achieve the true causes of the there principles of Heaven you must first accept God into your life as you savior.
