Thanks to my brother in the ministry from Rockville for this one:
14 For the love of Christ controls us, having concluded this, that one died for all, therefore all died; 15 and He died for all, so that they who live might no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf.
2 Cor 5:14-15 (NASB)
The love of Christ is too large for any heart to hold it. It will overflow into others' hearts: it will give itself out, give itself away, for the enriching of other lives. The heart of Christ is a costly thing for anyone to have. It will lead those who have it where it led Him. If it cost Him the cross it will cost them no less.

pastor.. thanks for these two verses in 2corinthians 5. every sunday night i hang out with and teach about 6 (10th grade) teenagers. it's always a challenge. i am preparing some material for later and was led to your blod to read those verses. tonight i'll be reminding these young men that because Christ saved us, we have an obligation to this new nature hes given us and not to the old one. btw..i like your heavier taste in music..i.e..living sacrifice, becoming the archetype. you like demon hunter? God Bless you!
