If You Love Me…
If you love me, you will be loved by my Father; if you love me I will send the Holy Spirit and make of your body the temple of the Holy Spirit which I deem holy; if you love me you will experience a supernatural life and be a partaker of the divine nature; if you love me you will be a co-heir with me and share in the office of my priesthood, prophetic, and kingship; if you love me I give you authority in my name over all the power of the enemy and nothing likewise shall injure you; if you love me you will be hated by the world but know it has first hated me; if you love me I will give you a new name in my kingdom and a glorified body, if you love me your faith will be expressed through love; if you love me you will love your neighbor as yourself; if you love me you will see my love in the creation of your body as wonderfully fashioned in my image and likeness; if you love me you will keep my commandments and they will not be burdensome; if you love me you will offer your body as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God your spiritual worship; if you love me I will wipe out, for my own sake, your offenses, your sins I remember no more.
If you love me I will be your righteousness, your sanctification, your redemption, your salvation; If you love me you will put to death whatever in your nature is rooted in this earth; if you love me you will fall in love with yourself in spite of your sins, faults, failings, shortcomings, regrets, handicaps, if you love me you will take up your cross and follow me with the proper attitude; if you love me you will take joy in your sufferings as you share in my passion; if you love me you will die to self and decrease that I may increase. If you love me I will renew you in my love when you fall and call out to me; if you love me your name will be written in the Lamb's book of life; if you love me, eye has not seen, ear has not heard nor has it dawned upon you what I have prepared for you; if you love me, for my name's sake I will guide you in the right path yea, though you walk in the valley of the shadow of death you shall not fear for I am with you; if you love me you will be with me for all eternity; if you love me I go to prepare a place for you for in my Father's house.
If you say you love me you will not be ashamed of me; if you say you love me you will love the Lord your God with all your heart, your soul, your mind, your strength; if you say you love me you will go out into the world and proclaim the gospel and make disciples of men; if you say you love me you will honor your parents that I may give you a long life; if you say you love me you will carry my burdens and bear my yoke; if you say you love me you will not lie, cheat, steal, kill, covet, nor bear false witness and thus profane my name; if you say you love me you will keep and fulfill your vows, oaths, and promises for I bear witness with you; if you say you love me you will cherish and love your wife as I love the Church and gave my life for her; if you say you love me you will pray for your enemy, bless those who curse you, and do good to those who insult, abuse, or misuse you; if you say you love me you will ask of me for a new heart, not as of stone but of flesh.
If you say you love me you will pass though the water, I will be with you, in the rivers you shall not drown. When you walk through fire you shall not be burned, the flames will not consume you; if you say you love me you will be my witness, my servant whom I have chosen to know and believe in me and understand that it is I; if you say you love me you will forgive your brother as I forgive you, if you say you love me you will be your brother's keeper and help carry his burdens; if you say you love me you will recognize in the least of your brothers that it is I; if you say you love me you will follow my example and become a servant; if you say you love me you cannot serve two masters, you will love one and hate the other, the world or my kingdom; if you say you love me you will have no love for the world nor the things the world affords, if anyone loves the world, the Father's love has no place in him, for nothing that the world affords comes from the Father. Carnal allurements, enticements for the eye, the life of empty show- all these are from the world and the world with its seductions is passing away but the man who does God's will endures forever.
If you say you love me I will meet your needs according to my richness and glory; if you say you love me you will endure my discipline as children and not as illegitimate; if you say you love me you must trust me; if you say you love me you must believe in the resurrection of the dead as your hope; if not, judgment, the pool of burning sulfur, the second death, awaits you by your rejection of my love for you by your own will!
