Dear christs-love. To build one-another up is not only a good Message, it is also brings Joy as well. In Matthew 22: Jesus told a Lawyer: " The first and great Commandment is: Love God with all thy heart, with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. The second is like it: Love thy neighbour as thyself."
Jesus points out this great fact: " On these two Commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets." God wants our Love!!!
How do we start? We treat all we know and all we meet, friends and not friends, we treat them as we would love to be treated: with kindnes and always friendly words. Jesus will give us His Love and Joy, and the Holy Spirit will empower us with His Love, also. We ask God in Prayer, then we share all Love and Joy with our neighbour. We keep asking God and thanking God, and
sharing all Love and Joy with our neighbour. ( Matthew 7: 7-8) God will see our sincere efforts, and God will Bless us. We might stumble or forget, but then we ask God to forgive us, and carry on sharing all Love and Joy.
A Christian`s great weapon is Love, Love will overcome all enmity and wrong behaviour. AND Love is a great sign-post to God our Heavenly Father.
"Love and Obey", with God on our side, who or what can be against us?
I say this with love, christs-love. Greetings from Emmy, your sister in Christ.

A lot of times it will (compare Proverbs 15:1a). But sometimes it will not (Psalms 109:3-5). The best example is Jesus, who was still hated by some people (John 15:18-25), even though he is the epitome of love (John 15:13; 1 John 4:8). Indeed, Jesus was even crucified to death despite his perfect love (Mark 10:34).

Many people and things, but they cannot take any spiritual victory over us, no matter what they can do to us physically (Romans 8:35-39, Philippians 1:21-23; 2 Corinthians 5:8; 1 Corinthians 15:51-57, Isaiah 25:8).
