Hebrews 1:1-3 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:

God the Father appointed Jesus Christ to speak for Him. Great but how do we have a relationship with Christ sitting on the throne of heaven?

John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

For those of you that might think that the Holy Spirit is just a messenger, allow me to remind you that the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are One and you cannot hear One without hearing them all. You cannot speak to One without speaking to them all.

We understand that prayer is conversational. We should listen as well as speak. Relationships are not one way, they are give and receive by nature. Did you realize that reading your bible is conversational?

Romans 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

If you are wondering how you can speak into the Word of God as your part of the relationship allow me to remind you of this passage.

James 1:21-22(in part) receive with meekness the engrafted word… be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only…

Actions speak louder than words.

John 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.

In the Old Testament obedience of the law was fear based. Now in the New Testament it is love based. If you can obey the law based on your love of God and you’re good with that, God is good with that. He can work with it.

Where in the law does it say to love your enemies?

Matthew 5:43-45 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

Is this a law?

Hebrews 10:23-25 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

His love is provocative but cannot be anything but good love if left to bask in the radiance of the Son alone.

At some point in your walk with Christ this new heart of yours (Ezekiel 36:26) which serves a new conscience (Hebrews 10:22), will not be satisfied with mere obedience of ordinances.

These things Jesus said that demonstrate the love of God towards all mankind are based on a personal relationship. The letter of the law is impersonal.

A personal relationship with Christ is acceptable love.
