To love the Lord is to intend to do good, and to love the neighbour is to actually accomplish that intended good. Oftentimes, we find that we focus on accomplishing the external good, regardless of our selfish intentions. This is not what God desires because by doing that, we are unchanged within, and our actions are only temporal. What then does God desire of us in this respect? How can we love the neighbour according to God's will, so that we can contribute to the role of the church on this earth?

In this continuing message, “Love Thy Neighbour, Part 3”, Pastor Jeffrey Walter teaches that no man loves God without rightly loving the neighbour. He admonishes us to examine our intentions in our daily dealings with others, and emphasises that God seeks our salvation from sin above all else, and so we must also make this goodness our priority when dealing with others.

This message will turn your attention from the temporal acts of goodness, which only bring external satisfactions, to the more internal dealings of the heart, which result in true eternal transformation. It will also open your eyes to the essence of the church in God's plan, and the need to partake in it.
