In this third part of his series on the love of Jesus based on 1 Cor 13, Pastor Kong Hee shows us how Jesus did not respond to the darkness of other people in a typical way. First of all, love is not easily angered. Jesus did get angry but he never lost control of Himself. We must be good-natured like Jesus, asking God for unlimited patience. Second, love keeps no record of wrongs. Being unforgiving hurts us more than it hurts who we refuse to forgive. Like Jesus, we are to make a firm decision to forgive and keep forgiving. Finally, love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. When we rejoice at someone's misfortune or engage in gossip about them, we fail to love. Listen to this sermon and discover what it really means to love like Jesus.

Amen and Hallelujah.
To listen well to any sermon at ABC talk/reasoning eases the mind and a good/excellent sermon brings on the exuberance.Like the Bible did said that anger is a sin. Many pastors said the same.

A pastor recently said he saw in the hawker centre a man yelling/slapping (motivated by the evil spirit) the woman with him.

In the old days, most people'd say the woman must have done something very wrong. In today's world, most people'd say the man wrong to hit the woman irregardless of the woman blameable or not.

To do wrong, we are to fear the wrath of God and people.

We are made in the image of God, why we can be angry/jealous just like God Himself but we being so can be in light as God or in darkness as sin.

I think there are even some Christians who mistake our interest/concern for others as gossiping. We to distinguish by what Pastor Kong said about gossiping being rejoicing in the failure and fall of others.

Love gives people/things meaning/joy. Love gets us to bow to/ praise the lover.
