Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law

Thou shalt not kill.
De 5:17 -
Thou shalt not kill.
Matthew 5:21-26 -
21 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: 22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, (Vain fellow) shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
Isa 3:11 -
Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him: for the reward of his hands shall be given him.

Then shall they cry unto the LORD, but he will not hear them: he will even hide his face from them at that time, as they have behaved themselves ill in their doings.

Kindom in king kind. See Matthew 13:47, Luke 17:21, Acts 9:2 (This way is this kind) James 1:18. (There are many kinds, but only one kind, is like the king!) What kind are you, the king kind? In Genesis 1:11-12 God created the friut tree yeilding fruit after his kind, whose seed (The word of God) was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.(Notice the similarities in Genesis 1:16, 21, 24, 25, most of all verse 26) Are you kind (of) like the king?
Are you kind like the king? Or are you just (lukewarm) kind of like the king? If you are kind like the king, then you are the kind like the king. The point is; If you want to know what it is to be kind, you have to know Jesus. When you know Jesus you are kind led in his ways, and then you are kindled with the fire of God as if it were a burning fire shut up in your bones.(Jeremiah 20:9) For more understanding of this fire see Matthew 3:11-12, Acts 2:3-4, Romans 12:20, Hebrews 12:29.
see also; Luke 6:35, 1 Corinthians 13:4, 2 Corinthians 6:6, Ephesians 2:7, 4:32, Colossians 3:12-15, Titus 3:3-4, 2 Peter 1:7.

If you are seeking him anywhere besides the word of God in red, you may as well have a blindfold on. Anyone who does not believe that to hear from God, you must first go to the Son is blind not knowing Light from darkness. Likewise anyone claiming to know (understand) the Father without first knowing (perceiving, understanding) the Son, is calling Jesus a liar and has only made himself a liar by opposing the truth. See John 5:23,37-47 and 8:12,19,42-47 also Luke 10:22.

When you speak those words in Red you are speaking a new language called the Word of God. Congratulations! You have just learned speak King the language of Kings and Priest. A new language few can understand and stand under!
See JOHN 12:49-50 and 17:13, MATTHEW 10:19-20, MARK 13:11, JOHN 6:63, 8:38, 14:10, and 16:13.
HANDICAP PARKING
A handicap is a disadvantage or advantage. For example; If I make a football bet, and I give someone Dallas plus 10 points. I have a disadvantage and they have an advantage.
PAR means equal. So my HANDICAP in life depends on whether or not I PAR the KING.
If I equal the KING I have an advantage, But if I do not equal the KING I have a disadvantage in life.
In other words; Do not bet on calling yourself a christian for an advantage in life. Bet on being CHRISTLIKE for an advantage in life.
see MATTHEW 10:24-25 JOHN 13:15 & 34, 15:12 & 20 ROMANS 15:5

Read Believe and Obey Jesus Christ for Knowledge and Wisdom because Jesus says “no man knows the Father but the Son and whosoever the Son will reveal him”.
Listen to wisdom in Jesus who also says if you know the Son you have known the Father because they are one, Jesus in the Father and the Father in the Son.
The context of the doctrine below is clear and the context is, that if you do not know Jesus Christ our Lord then you do not know God and this is the final truth and it is Knowledge and it is Wisdom. Amen!!!
Matthew 11:25-30
25 At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes. 26 Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy sight. 27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him. 28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Know the one and the only real God who lives in Jesus Christ and Know Peace!!!
Think about it! You can not do what everyone tells you to do so why not make Jesus Christ your Lord? Your teacher and your Master [not those who serve him also] and you will find rest for your soul, in Him as Lord of your soul, no other is qualified!
Make no mistake we must submit to Him in others (definitely yes) but not to others who oppose the truth and the authority of Jesus and his Gospel, God forbid.
Knowledge and wisdom says; that to have only one boss is to eliminate confusion and the only spiritual Boss we can truly have is the Lord Jesus Christ who God has approved as Lord of Lords. There is only one Micro manger of our soul allowed; we may receive counsel from one another but our faith is for God in Jesus Christ and not for each other unless we are in him and He is in us at the time, you will know his voice.
John 14:18-24 -
18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. 19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also. 20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you. 21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. 22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world? 23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. 24 “He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.”
Knowing the difference between those in the flesh and those in the Spirit is spiritually discerned. We must know (Hear, believe and obey) the Gospel of Jesus Christ to discern such things because God has ordained that those who preach the Gospel should also live the Gospel and not preach another Gospel than the one given by our Lord Jesus Christ. No Not any Gospel that has things added to it or left out on purpose which is preached by those wishing to speak for God as if he has more wisdom and understanding than Jesus Christ.
The enemy is preaching other Gospels and Lording over Men’s souls as if they themselves are the shepherd of the Sheep rather than a servant of a shepherd. This is the very same reason Lucifer was struck down from heaven to earth where he rules in those who would follow his own example of wishing to Lord over men’s soul’s. The enemy is using the very lame excuse of maintaining order within a counterfeit church or any other excuse he can think up to gain for himself his very own sheep that will join him in the destruction of who Jesus is or opposition to what Jesus says. We can always recognize the servants and children of the devil because they will always try to take the place of Jesus Christ as our Lord in our life and over our soul, they will disagree with Christ in doctrine using any scripture that can be twisted to fit their doctrines that are designed to bring them and their ministry some Gain supposing Gain is Godliness from such withdraw yourselves. Godliness with contentment is great gain.
John 1:18 -
No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
John 3:35 -
The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand.
The words ‘All things’ includes the sheep; they do not belong to the pastor who is like a shepherd they belong to the shepherd who really is the owner.
For the pastor representing the Shepherd and being like the shepherd it may be possible to be called a shepherd, but not the owner of or Lord of the Sheep.
Notice Jesus did not tell Peter to feed your sheep he said feed My Sheep. Sheep without a Shepherd are Sheep without Jesus to lead them and that includes the Spirit of Jesus who wants to live in the pastor, but does not if that pastor does not keep the words Jesus was sent to speak called the Gospel of Christ, not the gospel of the Pastor, God forbid.
It is all about hearing believing and obeying Jesus Christ, it is not about submitting to the pastor.
It is about submitting to what Jesus says and the Pastor should be saying the same thing, and if he is then you should be submitting to that because it is not coming from the Pastor but rather from Christ who is Lord of the Pastor who is also a Sheep to be lead by the Same shepherd Jesus Christ as we are. If that pastor id doing his duty then you will learn to preach same Gospel Jesus is still preaching in those who are in him without adding or leaving things out on purpose. Things like this pearl of wisdom in The gospel of Jesus Christ -Matthew 20: 25 But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them. 26 But it shall not be so among you:
To Love one another as Jesus Loved us (a new commandment) we cannot exercise authority over one another and most definitely not one over others like the ungodly will teach, Rather we will teach all men to submit to the words and the example of Jesus Christ. The example of Jesus Christ never shows us to exercise our authority over one another only to exercise it over spiritual wickedness in the temple and to overcome all evil with Love.
Submitting to each other does not require the exercise of authority it only requires that we be in the right Spirit, the one that Submits freely to the right Spirit in others. Anyone seeking to exercise authority over another is most assuredly not in the right Spirit, and should not be submitted to but rather brought back into submission to the Gospel of Christ because they have lost their way and are no longer a leader in the example of our Lord Jesus Christ who was meek and allows others the freedom not to follow his way, very much unlike the others [Pharisees and temple priest’s] who follow the way of the world and the unbelieving who do in fact exercise authority over one another, to Gain power influence and control. They follow the example of their father the devil Masquerading as an angel of Light [servant of God, a wolf in sheep’s clothing] who has a control addiction for the things that belong to God like you and I and what we Hear, believe and obey. They are the enemy of the freedom from this type of [their, the devil and his children] bondage found in serving Jesus Christ as our Lord and our God. Wake up and turn from these wicked men to serve Jesus Christ as the revelation of God in your Life.
John 5:17-30 -
17 But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work. 18 Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the Sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God. 19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise. 20 For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel. 21 For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will. 22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: 23 that all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him. 24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. 25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live. 26 for as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; 27 and hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man. 28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, 29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation. 30 I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.
Sounds Like a lot of counterfeit churches should follow this same example? 30 I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear [by the word, the Gospel for us], I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.
John 6:27 -
Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.
John 6:42 -
And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven?
John 8:28 -
Then said Jesus unto them, “When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.”
John 14:13 -
And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
John 17:1 -
These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee:
One Shepherd and One fold!!!
John 10:1-18
1 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. 2 But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. 4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. 5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers. 6 This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them. 7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. 8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. 9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. 10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. 11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. 12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. 13 The hireling fleeth, because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep. 14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. 15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep. 16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. 17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. 18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.
Note that the context of the teaching is that if a man comes to the sheep in some way [door] other than the way Jesus Christ comes to the sheep the same is a thief and a robber. Listen for the words ‘My sheep’ this means that the thief or the robber that has said those words would have the sheep follow them instead of coming to the sheep in the name of Christ they come to sheep in their own name and their own way. If a man comes to sheep Christ’s Sheep to serve them the same food as seen in the manger {Jesus Christ) they will speak and teach what Christ has given us all and it is the Way of the Gospel of Christ, not the way of the Church or of the pastor. If the Pastor or Church is teaching the same words (way) as Christ teaches men then it is not the way of the church or the pastor but rather the way of Christ that is taught. I can not call the gospel mine and be truthful, but if the gospel I teach is wrong then it is mine and I will be held accountable for it. Only faith in what is true and what is right according to Jesus Christ is faith that is worthy, faith in anything or anyone else is nothing more than worthless because it is worth less, far less to the point that it becomes Vain. There is no other name by which men are saved, and it is the power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ unto salvation.
Teaching others to exercise authority over others is not something you will find in the Gospels or in the New Testament books, because telling others to submit is not telling others to exercise authority over others, these are two separate issues.
It is okay to tell others to submit, but it is not okay to exercise authority and to attempt to force others to submit, otherwise much evil would be justified. Besides it is not even submission if it is forced it is oppression.
Only the Catholic Church would still exist if oppression and the exercise of authority was part of Gods plan on earth within the church body of Jesus Christ. It simply does not work because it is not love, not the way Jesus revealed the Love of God in himself.
Like Jesus says, exercising authority is the way the gentiles in the way of the world, they do things not the way His disciples do things, because a true disciple of Christ comes to serve all who will believe, not to expect all who believe to serve him, but rather to serve the Lord by serving others.
The disciple, knowing that he is an unprofitable servant, and has only done his duty by making disciples of others, giving them the Gospel and expecting nothing in return for doing his duty for our Lord to increase the same Spirit in our Lord in others, does his duty without the force or coercion of exercising authority over God Sheep [another mans servant].
I think Paul a fellow servant in Christ like many who are in the right Spirit, sums it up well.
Romans 14:1-23
1 Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations. 2 For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs. 3 Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him. 4 Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand. 5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. 6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks. 7 For none of us liveth to himself and no man dieth to himself. 8 For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's. 9 For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living. 10 But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. 11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. 12 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God. 13 Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling block or an occasion to fall in his brother's way. 14 I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean. 15 But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died. 16 Let not then your good be evil spoken of: 17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. 18 For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of men. 19 Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another. 20 For meat destroy not the work of God. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who eateth with offence. 21 It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak. 22 Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth. 23 And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.
Romans 2:1-16 -
1 Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. 2 But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to [Jesus] truth against them which commit such things. 3 And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God? 4 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? 5 But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; 6 Who will render to every man according to his deeds: 7 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life: 8 But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth [Jesus], but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, 9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile; 10 But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:
11 For there is no respect of persons with God. 12 For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law; 13 (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. 14 For when the Gentiles [having Jesus and the Gospel], which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: 15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;) 16 In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel. [The very same Gospel given to Paul by those Jesus Christ gave it to]
Korah and Koran
Notice how the word Koran fits neatly into the word Korah.
Korah is the man who led rebellion against Moses and Aaron and just as Jesus is a prophet like Moses, the Koran has led rebellion against Jesus and his spokesmen.
Jude 1:8-11
8 Likewise also these dreamers defile the flesh, reject authority, and speak evil of dignitaries. 9 Yet Michael the archangel, in contending with the devil, when he disputed about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him a reviling accusation, but said, "The Lord rebuke you!" 10 But these speak evil of whatever they do not know; and whatever they know naturally, like brute beasts, in these things they corrupt themselves. 11 Woe to them! For they have gone in the way of Cain, have run greedily in the error of Balaam for profit, and perished in the rebellion of Korah.
The rebellion of Korah is when Korah and his followers rebelled against Moses in the wilderness Korah told Moses that they were also holy all of them and that Moses was taking too much on himself to be a prince over them and rebelled against the one God chose to lead them (along with Aaron of course). See Numbers Chapter 16 for the story.
Remember Moses was Gods chosen savior sent to free the people from bondage, along with Aaron his spokesmen.
In the same way Christ was sent to free Gods people, and whomever Christ sends to others as his spokesman.
Moses did not choose himself for this mission he was sent by God after his own objection to the task, Aaron was not chosen by Moses he was chosen by God to be the spokesman for Moses because of his objection of not being able to speak well.
Luke 10:16
“He who hears you hears me, he who rejects you rejects me, and he who rejects me rejects Him who sent me."
John 13:20
Most assuredly, I say to you, he who receives whomever I send receives Me; and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me."
John 5:23
“That all should honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.”
The rebellion of Korah was not against Moses or Aaron but against God who sent Moses and Aaron who was to be sent by Moses.
Korah wanted to lead when he was not chosen by God to lead; he was putting his own judgment before the judgment of God.
When someone rejects the gospel they do not rebel against you, they rebel against Christ and the one who sent Christ, to send us, to speak what he told us to speak.
Acts 3:22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.
Deuteronomy 18:15
Moses continued, “The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your fellow Israelites. You must listen to him. 16 For this is what you yourselves requested of the Lord your God when you were assembled at Mount Sinai. * You said, ‘Don’t let us hear the voice of the Lord our God anymore or see this blazing fire, for we will die.’
17 “Then the Lord said to me, “What they have said is right”. 18 “I will raise up a prophet like you from among their fellow Israelites. I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell the people everything I command him. 19 I will personally deal with anyone who will not listen to the messages the prophet proclaims on my behalf”.
Numbers 16:1-11
1 Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men: 2 And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown: 3 And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them, Ye take too much upon you, seeing all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and the LORD is among them: wherefore then lift ye up yourselves above the congregation of the LORD?
Numbers 16:32
And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.
Numbers 26:9
“And the sons of Eliab; Nemuel, and Dathan, and Abiram. This is that Dathan and Abiram, which were famous in the congregation, who strove against Moses and against Aaron in the company of Korah, when they strove against the LORD:”
Numbers 26:10
And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up together with Korah, when that company died, what time the fire devoured two hundred and fifty men: and they became a sign.
