Welcome to the Daily Blade. The Word of God is described as the sword of the spirit, the primary spiritual weapon in the Christian's armor against the forces of evil. Your hosts are Joby Martin and Kyle Thompson, and they stand ready to equip men for the fight. Let's sharpen up.

All right. Good morning, gentlemen, and welcome to this is my final day with you as a guest

host of the Daily Blade. It's been an incredible honor to open the word with you these days.

And again, if you're brand new, my name is Pastor Josh Howardton and I'm a pastor of a church in

Dallas and a friend of Pastor Jobi and Kyle Thompson and

and a listener to Daily Blade. Let's finish today what we've done for the last four days leading

up to today is we had just been each day like double clicking on deeper diving on one of the

five commands given specifically to men in 1st,

Corinthians 16. And today I want to click on the last and arguably the most important one.

So the five commands are, be watchful, day one, stand firm in the faith, day two, act like

man, day three, Be strong, day four.

And then today it says, let all you do be done in love.

What does a man of God do?

A man of God acts like the son of God and empowered by the spirit of God.

Let's all that we do be done in love.

Now, it's really interesting.

If you wanted to go like, hey, dude,

what's like one word, like only one word that like probably best articulates what the Christian life is like? Historically, theologians would probably, besides Jesus, you know, historically theologians would go say besides Jesus you know historically theologians would go

well man ethically i think it's probably the word love so like just think about this okay what's

what's god's command well you can boil it all down to this you want to do the whole bible or the entire

law in a tweet love god and love people man how should I relate to lost people? Well, John 316, for God so love the world. All right, that answered my question. How should I relate to people I don't like? People who feel like enemies. Well, Jesus said to love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. If you ask questions like, man, I wonder how God feels about me right now. That's a question I think every man asks. You wander into sin, prone to wander a Lord, I feel it. You're like, man, I wonder how God feels about me when I sin. Well, the Bible says, see, see what kind of love the father has lavished on us that we should be called children of God. He loves you. If he asks, man, what is God like? The Bible says, well, the answer is God is love.

If you're in a season what is God like? The Bible says, well, the answer is God is love.
