How do we deal with the impossible commands Jesus gives?

Posted by Charles L. Stanley | Weekly Devotional | 0 |

Jesus calls us, his followers, to a standard that is impossible to meet: “Love one another as I have loved you.” Yeah, right! Anyone who thinks, “OK, I will do that,” simply doesn’t understand what Jesus just said.

My story in brief…

Christ first came into my life at the age of 5 during a series of evangelistic meetings in our tiny country Quaker church house in Gate, Oklahoma. Since then it has been a process of “Stumbling forward by grace, through faith in Christ.” I experienced a significant personal revival at the age of 19 and have been much in love with the Lord ever since…five decades-plus.

My passion is to enjoy the Lord by encouraging others to make progress in their lives…living life successfully. I do that primarily through my disciple-making efforts and through my writing.

I spent about 20 years in public ministry and at the age of 40 decided that I had allowed my passion for ministry to impede my prior duty to my family, so I stepped aside. I found a new career as a financial advisor and now make my living serving my financial planning clients.

I now consider myself to be a bi-vocational minister of the gospel.
