Now you're able to sit down feeling comfortable.
But I want to like if we're talking about rights in America,
I want you, you have a right when you be saved, tell the next
person to you.
Jesus love you, you know.
Jesus love you.
Jesus love you use your rights when you be saved.
You supposed to preach the gospel.
What gospel we preaching?
But we're not able to say the person Jesus love you all of us have
the right to do.
Remember, when you be saved, you experience the love of the Lord.
You don't be here only for saying, oh, I'm sit down and I'm
doing my thing every Sunday.
No, your life had to be different.
Working with the Lord is excited, walking in waters.
Remember the excitement for the Lord has to be in your heart.
Dear brothers and sisters, okay, in Christ are we getting together
today we are inviting you to delve the deeper and boundless and
unsearchable love of Christ.
In our daily life, it is easy to become distracted by the noise,
by the man of this world.
But today I'll encourage you to pause and reflect the immense
love of Christ.
Tonight is not one more night.
The Lord has for each of us the power to change our heart, our
life forever.
You believe that.
You believe that they have forever changed your life.
The love of Christ.
Not just something to be understood in our mind, but something
to be filled deeply in our soul.
Remember, the word of God is so true that when the love of Christ
touch you, you change.
Not even nobody.
And always tell These younger people not leaving nobody write you
a story.
Leaving God, writing your story, leaving God put you in the
way that somebody they really need this love.
Let us take time and explore four keys.
Four keys.
The aspect for the Christ's love it is deeper, it's a sacrifice,
it's transforming power and it's eternal nature.
It's the four keys we see tonight.
The first key we open is the deep of Christ, the depth of Christ's
love.
Okay, I see my wife already said, oh, and love beyond measure.
This love they take us to Ephesians 3, 17, 19.
Let's go to the book of Ephesians.
Ephesians 3, 17, 17, 19.
And this love is amazing.
They say that Christ might dwell in your heart by faith.
Yet being rooted and grounded in love might be able to comprehend
with all saints what is the bread and length and deep and high.
And we see here something amazing.
And to know the love of Christ with path every knowledge that ye
might be filled with all fulness of the Lord.
Paul prays for the believer and said that Christ might dwell
in your heart through what?
Through faith.
All of us have to faith in Christ and his love is we can comprehend
the love of Christ in our mind.
We can, but it's something amazing.
I pray that you being rooted and establishing the love they have
the power together with all of the Lord's people to grasp how wide
and long and high and deep is the love of Christ.
And to know this love that surpass knowledge that you know might
be filled to make sure of all the fullness of God.
How many of you had experience to feeling God love?
How many of you able to pick up your hand and say, I'm feeling
this.
We can measure that.
Everybody is supposed, when you save you supposed to feel in
the love of Christ because you're supposed to preach the gospel.
What gospel you preach when you're not feeling the love of Christ.
You know what happen is we be sometimes too selfish to tell people,
Jesus love you.
And I'm not afraid to say, oh, this guy started again.
No, I'm telling you the truth.
In America we need more step up and say, you know, Jesus love
you, your life is not that bad because she should really love you.
You know, when you accepting the Lord, you come in with your dirty
clothes and he put your new clothes.
We have to be blessed to be here.
We have to be blessed everything God gave you to you today
because they love you.
And look at this we continue.
Paul speak of a love that cannot be fully comprehended.
By human mind.
The love of Christ is beyond measure.
Beyond what we can see, hear or feel.
It is wild as the universe.
As long as eternity, as high as heaven and as deep as the grave.
This love go far beyond our human understanding.
You can understand God love you the way you are?
I can.
And when I be saved, I said I can understand God love me the way
I am.
They love you.
They change you.
Look at this.
You know God know what you do it today.
And because you here, he bless you even you like it or not, because
you do the right choice to be in the house of the Lord.
Look at this.
His love we can confront.
Think about the creator of the universe.
The one who made the stars and formed the mountains.
Love you.
You know God.
With one hand they pick up the universe.
When people tell me about his God and say, my God is bigger, they
pick up the whole universe with one hand.
They beaten the dead.
He resurrected.
How many tools we have foretell the love of Christ for people
outside the church.
A lot of tools.
Your God is bigger than any God.
You know that, right?
You want you be saved.
This is your God.
When you be saved.
His love.
We can comprehend it.
We can tell people, you know one day talking in Exodus about the
shaking of glory.
The people we only hear about that.
But you don't really compare what's the love to the time you accept
in Christ.
When they give you the peace you need in this moment.
You know, when God taught you life, you feel in the love.
Not superficial love.
Because sometimes we say I love you, brother.
We're not really feeling.
I hate that guy.
But I had to, hey, I love you brother.
Because we in church, God is not like that.
He really love you.
When you passionate for the Lord, it's because you've been rescued.
I'm being rescued.
You be rescued.
You really say I'm saved.
Okay, feeling the love.
Because tonight you're feeling the love of God.
Tonight they find out that the Lord is here and they put in your
heart, I love you.
Don't worry about your work.
Don't worry about your sickness.
Just worry about my word today.
Just worry about my message in your heart.
The fuck of what happened outside.
Outside is a mess with a political whatever you want to talk.
Not only political, anything, it's a mess.
You know what?
People need love.
You know?
Need people need know you love.
Because sometimes I love people because I'm feeling sorry.
Jesus not feeling sorry for us.
Compassion.
You need love with compassion.
The only way you love like Jesus love is with compassion.
The Only way we find the revival.
We seek him for years and we start seeing.
Now, I tell you right now, you have negative people that tell you,
oh, we don't see the revival.
Why we see the revival.
Seeing your faces around.
I know everybody.
I told you.
I tell man, Jesus love you.
You know, a couple weeks ago, I go, somebody, I see somebody and
I hug him.
Only I said, let me hug this guy and say, you know what?
And then he sit and say, I hug him and I'm feeling bones in his
back.
He go back and drugs really bad.
And I know him for years, and I walk in and hug him and say, you
know, Jesus love you, man.
And he crying.
He.
He crying.
He crying that much for 10 minutes.
He tell me, you know, nobody tell me that for years because he
be in the word of God a long time ago.
And I said, oh, little things make a big difference in people's
life.
You know, just remember what Jesus do for you, the love they show
you.
It's what we need in the churches now, love.
Pat was just talking all about that all the time.
Sometimes when we come to the church, we sit down and we say, nothing
happened.
You say that in your heart.
I guarantee you nothing happened in your life.
All the time when I come here, I hear the message, always something
happened in my life.
Even when the difficult come to your life, you're feeling the
love of Christ because he tells you, hey, don't worry, you
have this problem.
I'm not taking this problem away from you, but I'm being with
you and this problem with my love.
And he love you.
He really love you.
You understand?
You're the son of the daughter of the King.
You understand how much you value for him.
His love.
You're not able to measure.
Look at this.
It's amazing.
Look at this.
It's very essence of what?
God.
It is his love.
It's the essence of God.
We can comprehend that thinking about the creator of the
universe, the one who made the star and formed the mountains.
Love you.
He love you for you.
No visit on your worthiness, but on his eternal nature.
It is the love that chose to reach down to us while we are still
far off.
Love broken, uninsaned.
Christ love you.
His love never end.
I'm trying to look at a word for never end.
And I'm trying to look in a really very difficult word to say.
But this morning I say, what can I use?
Say never end.
Thank you.
Never end.
Simple.
You know what we try to do in our mind and try to make One make
a discernment.
Try to do so sophisticated for people.
Impressed of me?
No, you have to be impressed for the word of God, not me.
You have to be the reason and tell the people, you know, I'm not
nervous to preaching because I'm very.
Go on.
But I'm nervous to say something wrong is not in the word
of God because I'm being judged.
Not for you, for the Lord.
Because sometimes when people come to the church, even though they
don't check what the pastor say, sometimes you know how many
mistakes I make sometimes with the wrong verse.
And a lot of people say, hey Pastor, I'm thinking it's the wrong
verse.
I say, yeah, you're right.
You know how many times happen not even that happened in your life
because sometimes the devil use that for destroying you.
You know what happened with the wrong verse?
You maybe do some sin and you say, ah, God is right.
No, he's not right with that.
When you feel compassion for the Lord, it's because you're feeling
the love.
All of you have the passion for serving the Lord.
All of you.
That's the reason you here.
That's the reason you say, hey, I'm here.
And the second key, this is the first key.
The second key is the sacrificial love of Christ is the
ultimate expression of love.
You see, he sacrificed that much for us.
And let's go see in the book of in the word of God what they say.
Romans 5:8.
Check it out, make sure I'm right.
Okay, Romans 5:8.
Now misunderstanding people say, hey Pastor, Pastor Gallo not
teaching about the Bible.
They're not even preaching no more.
That is the Bible saying he loved the utah much.
Romans 5:8.
Let's go.
Romans 5:8 says something impress something amazing.
And look at what they say.
That means you have to check your Bible.
But God command his love toward us and that while we are yet
sinners.
Christ died for what?
Okay, but God demonstrates his own love for us.
And this while we're still sinners, Christ died for us.
The greater manifestation of Christ's love is found in his sacrificial
word on the cross.
He really love you.
He died for us on the cross.
Look at that amazing love.
Jesus did not just speak or love.
He showed through the most incredible act self given.
The world has never been seen experienced.
He give you his own life for us.
He don't say I love you.
And we do some promise sometimes we never take.
I remember when I'm dating my wife, I'm probably Marilu, Mariluz
I love you when I marry you and give you a diamond.
$5,000 diamond, man life.
You never have it right.
But when Jesus say they love you and they do something for you.
He died on the cross.
His word is true.
And everybody laughing because sometimes we do promise we never
do.
Okay, everybody, not just me.
That is why I'm not feeling that bad.
But I'm supposed to feeling bad.
Thanks God.
God is not like us.
Not like me.
I say like me for you guys not feeling bad and say like me, but
it's all of us.
Thanks God.
The love God, we can measure that.
We can.
It's impossible.
And look at this.
Jesus, the son of God willingly left his throne in heaven
and come to the earth not to be served, but served.
He came to take upon himself the punish that we deserve for our
sins.
On the cross.
He bore our sin, our shame, our guilt.
He suffering and died so that we could reconcile with God.
So that the body of the sin between us and the Father can be
removed.
Because he do that for you.
We love the preacher talking about some kind of love this morning.
And I say inside me myself.
He say, no, he used my sense.
No, he talking about the love.
And that's what we have to have love.
We know God with the mission.
Pastor Joy say go.
We don't have love for others.
What is the reason you be next to your wife?
Because you love her.
Every husband is supposed to work close to your wife.
Come on guys, right?
Because you love.
Because something.
The love is not the kind of love that expressed through nice
words or good intention.
It is a love that costs something.
The love of Jesus Christ.
They cost him his life.
Christ's love cost him his life.
He gave his very life for us.
To rescue us from eternal separation from God.
There is no greater love than that.
You can find it nowhere.
You read any history book, you can find it that love.
You read Romeo and Juliet, whatever you want to read it.
That love is not like God love.
You can imagine that love.
You can comprehend it.
You never see.
People say that guy is so fanatic.
I love it when people tell me, man, you fanatic.
Because I'm being rescued.
And the love God gave it to me.
You're not finding nowhere except in him.
And it's not easy to find.
People say, no, it's easy, no.
Because when you be saved, you self have go second.
You have to put first God.
Me, me, me have to go.
Want to be saved and try to be.
Many months, I think for months try to go to Egypt.
Many Times.
And I say, man, I'm not feeling good, but I'll be safe.
But you know what?
And try to find love in the wrong way to the time and discover
you never find a love of God except me.
Tonight.
You're coming tonight because you have to discover in your heart
you're really feeling the love of God.
Or just you never feel it.
And you say, oh, I'm being saved.
And you never experience the love.
Just be careful.
You visit for 20 years in a church and you never experience that
love.
They overwhelm your heart.
The feeling in love with the Lord.
No matter what people say, no matter what people tell you, you
continue serving the Lord.
Because the love we can find money.
Not able to pay the love your job.
Not able to pay the love.
You know, to the time I discovered.
You know, people sometimes worry I'm the one to worry about
my job sometimes.
And you know what?
You'll be replaceable.
And I wick.
When I'm working in Florida, I'm saying, these people never find
a manager like me.
And a week, they replace me right away.
I'm working for them for many years.
Or at least as they testify, I'm the best one week.
And you know what is the bad news that happened to you too?
So get no focus on that.
Focus on the Lord.
No matter everything be replaceable.
You know who only not be replaceable?
God.
God never be replaced.
Look, he's the only one.
But let's go to the third key, okay?
We passed one, two keys already.
The transforming power of Christ love.
A love that can change us, okay?
That love, they're able to change really, really bad people
or really, really bad woman to something that people never see before.
They changed.
Paul, they check me, they check Mark, right?
They check Mark.
They chant.
Everybody.
Most of the people I know here, they.
Beside Alain, all the people, they walk in and say, mark.
And go on and on and on and on.
And you say, man, this guy tell everybody I'm not bad.
Yeah, you're bad before.
But God taught you and they changed you.
You have a new, new, new heart.
You be a new creature.
It's because somebody give you a real love.
Somebody show you the real love.
Somebody tell you you're really important, you know?
The third key is the transforming power of Christ.
Love that can change us.
The love of Christ is not just something admired from a distance.
It is a love that comes and dwell on us and transforming us from
the inside out.
Okay?
God, transformation is not from outside.
It's from inside out.
I'm tired to tell people differs bankers that you shouldn't
tie.
And don't make me wrong, I use certain tanks.
I say no.
The capacity bank deferred no.
And say in the reality, right people the outside they want it looking
good for people.
And say ask about people.
What is your first reaction when you're walking on the street
and somebody coming with broken jeans and a broken shirt,
another guy coming with suit and tie walking next to you, who
you go close to?
Huh?
No, but you know what?
The guy sue and tested drug dealer.
You don't know that.
Because the outside looking good.
That's the reason there is generation and the love of Christ
that make you change from inside.
You change it.
Look at your face so happy you are feeling now you say, man, this
guy remind me how much God loved me.
Why he poured that love on me.
Because you're really important.
And look at this.
Let's go to the third keys.
Okay.
Let's go to Second Corinthians 5:17.
Second Corinthians 5:17.
And look at what they say.
Second Corinthians 5:17.
Checking your Bible.
Okay.
Tell you all the time.
Second Corinthians 5:17.
They say, therefore, if any man be in Christ, he's a new creature.
Old things are passed away.
Behold, all things are coming.
What?
Yes.
Who write this?
Paul.
He said, if any is in Christ, the new creation has come, the old
has gone and the new is here.
What?
The reason I make you read Psalm 100 when you're coming in,
it's because the psalmist start rejoice being where in the
house of the Lord.
You know, too many people come to the house of the Lord and and
coming.
And I love when people sit down and it's like this, like they
think nobody see there.
And when the preachers say amen or something.
Everybody see you.
Everybody see you, right?
And the pastor see you more.
That's the reason I have it.
I have it.
I say no.
And I'm preaching close to the people because I want to walking
around.
Nobody's sleeping now until you're looking around the people
sleeping before they're not sleeping with me.
I never liked that.
I always thought even Spanish was that, hey, nobody's sleeping
in my service.
It's because men you lose your blessing when you're sleeping.
You come in, this is the wrong place to sleep.
Wrong place.
This is the place you focus.
What the Lord want in your life?
This is the hospital.
Not do like when I do.
When I go to the doctor and go to the doctor and the doctor asked
me, you feeling good?
I said, fantastic.
What is the reason you're here?
You're feeling good?
Because I had a habit.
Men had a habit.
Everybody laughing.
Because when the men go to the doctor, they say, oh, I'm feeling
good, I have nothing.
That's the thing.
Look, you come into the hospital, this is not a museum of
perfect people.
This is a hospital.
All of Bob is sick and we want, okay, regenerate all the time.
Leaving our problems here, leaving our sickness here.
That's the reason the love of Christ changed your life.
They changed my.
They changed pastor Josh's life, they changed Pastor John, they
changed brother Blackford, they changed brother Michalister's
life.
They changed your life because they love you.
You see the special, you see the kids outside, watch the door.
You see the kids seeking for the Lord.
And the kids say, hey, yeah, you too.
Come and play something every Sunday testimony.
Now you're here, you see it.
The love of Christ makes a difference in people's life.
And let's go.
He said, man, come on the Torquis.
One more.
It's more, man, it's more.
It's excitement, it's passion.
Amen.
What is nothing more important than being in the house of the Lord?
Be excited.
When you invite somebody to the house of the Lord, don't tell
him, oh, pastor, again with that preaching about guiltiness.
Man, that guy is so bad.
No, invite people to the party because this is your spiritual party
when you come every Sunday and Wednesday.
You know what I always tell people?
I never invite nobody to my parties when I be in Egypt and I
tell come to my party, you boring and I have a horrible food.
Nobody go to your party.
Who want to go to the party for when you invite somebody to the
church, you say, hey, come on to the party.
By the way, the pastor is so boring, but sit down on the back
because you're able to sleep in.
No, you know, you're not coming to sleep into the church,
you're coming to revive.
You're coming to your heart pumping hundred miles an hour because
you're feeling the love of Christ.
Tell the people what you changed, your life changed.
And I always tell people it's exciting walking for the Lord.
When we encounter the love of Christ, we are never the same.
His love takes hold of our heart and renew our mind and change
how to see ourselves, how we see others and how we live our life.
The love of Christ does not leave us unchanging and compels us
to become more like Jesus.
We have to be more like Jesus.
We're feeling what compassion you see when Jesus present the kingdom,
he never say ah, by the way, the kingdom is so bad.
The kingdom is this.
No, the kingdom is excited.
We continue to tell the people, the younger generation, it's
a sacrifice serving the Lord.
It's a lie because you walking in water when you're serving the
Lord.
The Bible says he provide everything you need.
We stand for the next generation.
We criticize too much.
It's because we tell the people.
I so sad.
I had to wake up my only day off to go to church.
That's a sacrifice.
Go to church.
You have to be grateful you have a job.
You know, when you're feeling the love, you start appreciate everything
they give to you.
The Lord give you a lot of stuff that we take it for granted.
A lot of stuff.
Look at this.
The love of Christ remind you how important you are.
Remind you the power that God gives to you.
Through Christ's love, we are free from the chain of sin and shame.
We are no longer bounded by our past, our mistake or our failure.
His love empower us to live in freedom and grace.
As we grow in and the knowledge of his love we begin reflect
his character and his heart to the world around us.
This transformation loves us not just for our benefits and receive
of Christ's love.
We are called to share that love with others.
The love that has changed us is mana overflow from our heart and
touch the life of those around us.
The love of Christ.
You supposed to spread the love of Christ.
People supposed to feel in the peace you have with the love of Christ.
We are vessels through which Christ's love spiral onto the world.
We supposed to spread this love.
We supposed to remind people, Jesus love you.
You know what is hard to do this exercise.
And I guarantee you we do this every Sunday.
And for you it's like you go to school every day.
It's like lifestyle or like you go to work every day.
We have to exercise this thing.
Jesus love you.
You know who do this?
The little kids and blast, right?
Mama Julie.
They say she love you, right?
You tell them all the time.
And they tell you back.
Yes, you do every Wednesday, right?
I remember you go, mama Shu is a great teacher.
Remember she should love you.
They say she should love you.
And they have a habit.
We have that habit.
Adults coming every Sunday.
You see the blessing God giving to you all the time today
he give you one opportunity of what living you breathe.
They give you a chance.
Don't lose your chance.
Just use it.
Feeling passion.
No matter your age, no matter where you come from.
Stop for yourself.
Oh, I'm too old.
Oh, I'm too young.
Oh, I'm too middle.
Oh, I'm Spanish.
Oh, I want this.
Oh, I want that.
Stop it.
Stop.
Just show the love.
What is the big deal?
Just show the love.
What are we waiting for?
What you waiting for?
What are we waiting to?
Our life is gone.
To other people.
Writing a story.
No, leaving God writing your story.
Even people remember you how passionate you are for the Lord.
Because it's the only that matter.
Your bank account.
People forget.
Oh, they had $20 million.
Oh, good for him.
But he's dead.
Oh, the minister growing.
Remember that guy in 1979?
Yes, there's that guy.
We continue here because that guy prayed for us.
And the night when we not here.
All of that stories that God writing for you.
Let's go continue with the key.
Okay, key number four is the last one.
The eternal nature of Christ love.
A love that never failed.
Finally, the love of Christ is eternal.
Let's go to Romans 8, 38, 39.
And it's the last verse.
We go.
Let's go to Romans 8, 38, 39.
You have to feel impassioned even with other people.
You have to tell people, hey, you know, you're really important
for the Lord.
You know Jesus love you that much that he died for you.
And look at this, the love of Christ.
And let's go and read in this.
And I want to make sure you're putting this in your heart.
Okay?
Romans 8, 38, 39.
For I'm persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angel, no principalities,
nor power, nothing present, nothing to come, nor hay, nor deep,
nor any other creature shall be able to separate us from the.
What?
I start again.
For what?
Good job.
Yeah.
When we go outside, say the love of God.
No, the love of God.
Come on, mean it.
Really.
The love of God is.
Make you string.
Look at this.
Look at what we're reading here.
Paul declared.
For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angel,
nor demons, neither present, nor the future, nor any power, any
high, any deep, nor anything else in the creation.
We able to separate us to the love of Christ.
Look at that.
Nothing separates us to the love of Christ.
You really important for the Lord.
You understand that you looking yourself on the mirror and
saying, man, I'm the son of the king.
I are really important person.
I'm the daughter of the king.
Are really important.
Like Christian.
We serve an amazing God and a big God.
No Little guy, when you pray now on, pray for something big.
Don't pray for little things.
Ah, you have to cover my electric bill.
Everybody cover your electric bill.
Pray for big things because we serving a big God.
Stop.
Pray for little things, pray for big things.
Challenge yourself with the Lord.
Say, hey, I want to walk in water with you.
You know, it's hard to say it, but when you be in the difficult,
you don't have no choice.
When you be in the valley, you don't have no choice.
When somebody give you bad news for your healthiness, you don't
have control.
You know what's the problem with Christians Feeling the control
of the situation.
But when they're feeling the love, they leave in hand taker, not
leaving the devil stolen your life and your happiness.
Because they love you that much.
God loves you a lot.
And look at this, we almost finished.
The love of Christ is unshakable, unchanging.
Nothing in all creation separates us from his love.
It's not deep in our circumstances or our success or our
failures.
Christ's love is not fitting.
It is eternal.
It's the foundation we teach our lives.
Are we built in times of hardship?
We feel alone on our overwhelming life.
His love is constantly in times of joy, when we are celebrating
life blessings.
His love reminds us wherever we are in the mountaintop to the
mountain when the valley.
Christ's love never fell.
It is an anchor of our soul, a sort of comfort and strength that
will carry us through every storm.
The love of Christ that carries you in the middle to the
storm.
He's there with you.
Just only you have to feel him when you close you.
Now we come in with invitation, okay?
The last time I invite people say, why don't you invite me to pray
on the front?
Now I won't invite you to come and pray on the front.
Okay?
Dear friends, we saw the conclusion.
Right now the love of Christ is immeasurable, sacrificial, transformer
and eternal.
I will reflect on the depth of his love today.
Might we allow it to penetrate our heart and mind?
Let us never take his love for granted, but as instant.
Let the be the driving, the force begin all that we do.
The love of Christ has to be present in every decision in our
life.
Christ love you that much.
That changed everything.
It called us to live differently, to love others as he
loves us, to share his love with words that separately need.
And may we leave testimonies of the incredible love.
And may it overflow from our life, to touch the life of those
around you.
You know, the love of Christ, you're able to share with other people.
Even the people feeling the love of Christ, remember, it's different
feeling sorry for somebody.
They're feeling what what Jesus feeling for us.
Very good.
Remember, the love of Christ is not a sorry love.
It's leftover.
No, his compassion.
He died on the cross for each of us.
Now we up, we close our eyes, we pray and make this invitation
for the person they hear tonight, Father.
