INNER LOVE VS. OUTER LOVE

INNER LOVE VS. OUTER LOVE

There are two foundations for two types of love to stand on. Both are beautiful but  have a different view and see through different eyes all together. Outer love is very common and keeps the world from self destructing. It is the love that causes both sinner and saint to pitch in and help after a natural disaster. It causes an unsaved fireman to rush to his death to save a life. It is not based on a born again experience because there are some born again people who would never risk their lives to save another. However this love is born from above and exists in the saved and unsaved alike. ..." love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God". 1 John 4:7 (KJV)

Outer love is based in the soul of man and it is the part of My image that stayed with man after Adam was forced to leave the garden. If this outer love is allowed to developed and expanded  before conversion it will prepare the human being for great spiritual heights after conversion. Those that have this love know Me, but not necessarily as savior yet.   They are on their way to salvation but have not reached that point yet. Many people who do not claim to be born again willingly lay down their lives for another, they are destined to be born again, but their spiritual understanding is not developed yet. I have a set time for their spirit man to be born. ..."as many as were destined (appointed and ordained) to eternal life believed (adhered to, trusted in, and relied on Jesus as the Christ and their Savior)." Acts 13:48 (AMP

Many are born again directly from the enemy camp, coming from a life crime, of hate and bitterness, who were destroying other lives before conversion. This overnight experience is a conversion  that displays  My mighty transforming power. Others are born again, living in the shadow of My camp, they have great amounts of outer love,  physically saving other lives, yet their spirit is still unborn. "A when (I) saw that he answered intelligently (discreetly and having his wits about him), (I) said to him, You are not far from the kingdom of God." Mark 12:34 (AMP)  These preserve society before they are saved by their outer love and good moral conduct. These are referred to as  good, law abiding citizens. "And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd." John 10:16 (KJV)

The second love is a spirit based love, as is available only after being born again and filled with My Spirit.  It loves differently because it sees with the eyes of the spirit, things that outer soul love desires to see, but can't. This love is My love, unconditional love and it is imparted by association. The only way you acquire this higher love is by spending great deals of time in My presence, alone with Me. "But when you pray, go into your most private room, and, closing the door, pray to your Father, Who is in secret; and your Father, Who sees in secret, will reward you in the open." Matthew 6:6 (AMP).  It is transferred to you through a close association with Me. This is a love that you do not know you have, until others tell you, because this love is not of you. This love causes you to see and recognizes Me in others. This love sees others as I see them, it sees the end from the beginning. It is a waste of time to try to imitate this love by word or deed, because something will always come to break this love down and only the real thing will withstand the test.

If you try to love unconditionally, you will fail every time. The natural man cannot love spiritually, I must transfer My love to you, but it is a process that requires you dying to self and Me replacing dead self with unconditional love. As you come away with Me, fasting the things of life that give you pleasure, and eat up your time, I will reward you with My love.

Then and then only can you love like this: "Love endures long and is patient and kind; love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy, is not boastful or vainglorious, does not display itself haughtily. [5] It is not conceited (arrogant and inflated with pride); it is not rude (unmannerly) and does not act unbecomingly. Love (God''s love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking; it is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it it pays no attention to a suffered wrong. [6] It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail. [7] Love bears up under anything and everything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person, its hopes are fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything without weakening. [8] Love never fails never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end. As for prophecy (the gift of interpreting the divine will and purpose), it will be fulfilled and pass away; as for tongues, they will be destroyed and cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away it will lose its value and be superseded by truth. [13] And so faith, hope, love abide faith--conviction and belief respecting man''s relation to God and divine things; hope--joyful and confident expectation of eternal salvation; love--true affection for God and man, growing out of God's love for and in us, these three; but the greatest of these is love."
