THERE ARE 3 DIFFERENT KINDS OF LOVE

The 1st Kind of Love is Eros: This is the kind of love that takes place when somebody is sexually attracted to somebody. The media uses this kind of love to gain attraction. For instance, to attract people to buy a product, they present a seductive woman that people may be attracted to. Eros is the root word for erotic. Is possible to have this kind of love for a massive number of people 1 Kings 11:1-3 But king Solomon loved many strange women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, [and] Hittites; Of the nations [concerning] which the LORD said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall not go in to them, neither shall they come in unto you: [for] surely they will turn away your heart after their gods: Solomon clave unto these in love. And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart.(KJV). For instance, Solomon in the Bible had this kind of love to a lot of women. This love is very noisy but has no substance. When you see men that has such love, the moment they get what they want, you will find them no more. This kind of love does not come from the soul but from the body. 2 Samuel 13:14-15 Howbeit he would not hearken unto her voice: but, being stronger than she, forced her, and lay with her. Then Amnon hated her exceedingly; so that the hatred wherewith he hated her [was] greater than the love wherewith he had loved her. And Amnon said unto her, Arise, be gone.(KJV). If attraction is the fundamental for your relationship, then it is bound to fail. Eros is usually very dirty. What governs this kind of love is lust, satisfaction physically speaking. This kind of love can quench very easily. If you are a woman who wants to get married to a man focusing on physical appearance, then you are bound to have problem. You don’t focus on the container and leave the content. A woman whose dressing is to attract men can actually attract and get them but when they come in and see that there is nothing better inside her, they will flee. 


Another Kind Of Love is Agape Love: This is the noiseless flame. It is the kind of love that God has. Is a commitment to the welfare of another person. Every human being can actually exercise this kind of love. When you are getting married, you must be committed to the person you want to marry. The highest level of relationship is the commitment level. Before you get into a commitment to a person, you have to be very sure you will maintain the commitment. Courtship is not a time for intercourse but a time for interview. A relationship is something you need to give time and ensure you know the person before you make the promise.

The Rules of Engagement With Pst. Yugo

THE MAJOR FACTOR IN BUILDING QUALITY RELATIONSHIP
This factor is known as: Friendship
If you start up a relationship on a faulty ground, it will not last. If you build a relationship base at first site, you will have a problem.
Normal men have specifications. When you meet a person for a relationship, you begin to assess him/her for your specifications. The mistake that most people make is that they make up their mind base on their assessment. Intellectual exertion produces more dividends than physical exertion.
If you are falling in love with a lady because she can cook, that means you will have problem. The major thing is friendship. The way to get people interested in you is by first been interested in them Prov. 18:24. This is because human beings are naturally intelligent.

THERE ARE 7 DIFFERENT LEVELS OF FRIENDSHIP
1ST IS THE LEVEL OF STRANGER: In the olden days, parents brought young ladies for their sons to get married to and this was a success. This might have worked in time past but because of the uniqueness of today, this may not work better. The fundamental difference between our day and that of our grandfathers is that there are more distractions now than then. Distractions have increased.
2ND IS THE LEVEL OF ACQUAINTANCE: When you get acquainted with someone the first time, you register the person’s face in your memory. You don’t base a relationship on this. You base a relationship on friendship. A genuine person is someone who makes you feel better and that is your friend. There is a certain thing common between you and the person.
There are different kinds of love.
One kind of love is the family love. This is the kind of love you have for your sibling, father and mother in your family. Is that love that makes you react when someone hurts your relation.

Another kind of love is Errors: This is the lust kind of love.

Another kind of love is Agape Love: This is a deep kind of love, is not physical. Is God kind of love. Love is the sustained direction of the will towards another person. When Jesus commanded us to love one another, He didn’t say we should feel one another. Love is a commitment, sustained direction of the will towards another person. Is not a feeling. Agape love is committing to a person’s welfare. The first effect of agape love is that it gets you delivered. Every other thing can die but a genuine friendship does not die.
Another kind of love is Phileo: This is personal affection. It is what you find at the level of friendship.
3RD IS THE CASUAL FRIENDSHIP: At this level, you communicate your vision and your interest to your friend. At this level, is easier to talk about your future and vision.
4TH IS THE LEVEL OF CLOSE FRIENDSHIP: At this level of love, you will be more confident to speak about your future. When you are talking about your future, you are talking about circumstances you’ve overcome. Here, both of you’ve gotten to a certain level of friendship you can tell your friend about the things you conquered.
5TH LEVEL IS THE INTIMACY LEVEL: Heb 10:24, Gen 2:25: Here, you can now begin to disclose your challenges before you get to the next level. These include health issues, challenges you are having as a person. If you are afraid that they person will not understand, that means you’ve not gotten to the level of intimacy.

What Is The True Taste Of Christianity?

The true taste of Christianity is in how much of Christ that is revealed. Christ manifests when anything is done in holiness. The glorifying of Jesus Christ is the true taste of Christianity. 2 Corinthians 4:2-7 says: But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God. But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake. For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to [give] the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.(KJV). This is what Christianity is all about. Christianity is the earthen vessel. A person can be naturally humble, there are some that are naturally patient, some are naturally discipline, they are born that way. That is very good but that is not what Christianity is. If you can sort your problems yourself that means you don’t need Jesus. Genuine Christianity is that which makes an arrogant person become very humble and a wicked person become very good and kind.

3 KINDS OF JUDGMENT WITH PST. YUGO


There are 3 kinds of Judgment the bible talks about.
1 Corinthians 6:1 says: Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints?(KJV).
If you have a problem with another believer, there is a process of conflict resolution, if you exhausted that process, you can then take the person to the law court. 1 Corinthians 6:2 says: Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?(KJV)

Ephesians 4:10-12 says: He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.) And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:(KJV). You don’t  perfect someone who is already been made a saint. A believer is already crowned a saint, so you don’t judge him/her.

1st Kind of judgment is The Judgment of The Angels.
 They are going to be rewarded according to their works. Angels are given as servants to minister to those who are heirs of salvation. 1 Corinthians 6:3 says:
Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?(KJV)

2nd Kind of Judgment is The Judgment Seat of Christ:
Jesus is the judge here. He judges believers according to their works.
Rom14:10 Romans 14:10 says: 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.(KJV), the bible is taking about the believer here. 2 Corinthians 5:6-10
Therefore, though we are always confident and know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord-- for we walk by faith, not by sight -- yet we are confident and satisfied to be out of the body and at home with the Lord. Therefore, whether we are at home or away, we make it our aim to be pleasing to Him. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each may be repaid for what he has done in the body, whether good or bad.(HCSB).
We will all appear before the judgment seat of Christ and give account of what we’ve done

3rd Kind of Judgment: The great white throne Judgment
Revelation 20:11-15
And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is [the book] of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.(KJV). God is going to judge believers according to our works. Giving your life to Christ is not a certificate for heaven. What will make you receive reward is what you have done for others.
Romans 2:1-15 says: 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. But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things. 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? Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? 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; Who will render to every man according to his deeds: To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life: But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile; But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile: For there is no respect of persons with God. 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; (For not the hearers of the law [are] just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: 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;)(KJV).
