The Brother's Love

  "Let brotherly love continue." Hebrews 13:1

"Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love." Romans 12:10a

    If you go on to read the rest of Romans 12, Paul goes on to give a few simple instructions that are basic parts of the Christian life. In verse 11 he says to serve the Lord. Verse 12 says, "Rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing instant in prayer." Verse 13 talks about being hospitable and generous to those in need. In verse 15 Paul talks about being compassionate to those in trouble. Verse 18 that "If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men."  Verse 19 says "Avenge not yourselves". Verse 20 talks about loving our enemies, and 21 says that we are to overcome evil with good. 

    So, when we obey God's commands concerning how we ought to treat others, we are letting "brotherly love continue". Perhaps all of us should read Romans 12 regularly and keep in mind 'let brotherly love continue' throughout our days.


Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality. Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not. Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep. Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits. Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

Romans 12:10-21

Right or Left?

                                                         by Joshua R. Walter of Versailles, Kentucky            Left or Right? You choose. I just wanted to warn you.  “And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south.  And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold. And he went on his journeys from the south even to Beth-el, into the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Beth-el and Hai; into the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the name of the LORD. And Lot also, which went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents. And the land was not able to bear them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, so that they could not dwell tog...
