" I don't want your burnt offerings, I want your love."

Dr. Flowers, I'll be honest you have no idea how much joy it brings me to see you preaching the truth gospel, whether it's on the channel or even on the pulpit! This was a blessing to me and many others. I'll certainly watch the entire sermon. Talk about conviction. But praise God for your ministry! God bless you sir! 👏🏽

[teravega]

Man that last point hit. Loving others IS loving God. They are one in the same. For God creation is his love to us. Our loved ones are sent by God.

Speaking the truth in love, that we, (the church), may grow up In Him, in All Things.

[fabiandebeer]

Very interesting, compelling and convicting teaching/message Dr Flowers. 'Hope to live in the light thereof by God's grace.

[goodshorts]

There is an intimate connection with your relationship with others and a reflection of the love that you have for God. end

[amadeusasimov]

Man, I needed to hear this.
Been praying about not loving Him the way I should the past few years.
Thank you Leighton.

I really appreciate that he doesn't JUST critique calvinism. Thank you Leighton.

[JJA]

Wow… you’re on fire brother! Praise God for your life. Been following your teachings for years now after leaving Calvinism but never seen you preach. Definitely Father God has been preparing you for such times. May you continue to be empowered by the Holy Spirit, be filled with more favor and grace. 🙏
May all my brothers and sisters be rotted in the Love of Christ that surpasses all human understanding ❤️

“For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.”
‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭3:14-21‬ ‭

“I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.”
‭‭Ezekiel‬ ‭36:26‬ ‭

Loving our brothers and sisters in Christ is not necessary a feeling. Sometimes it is necessary to ‘agape’ love them because your relationship may be strained.

Thank you, Dr. Flowers, for this reminder. So needed in my life right now!

[a.k.]

Thank you for sharing this Leighton. God is using you to teach me how to love others better!

[youturntotruth]

[fcastellanos]

The love we need to love with is given by God, it is the fruit of the Holy Spirit, it is not human love.

[ShowCat]

Profound truth! Thank you, Dr. Flowers.

[freddienewhart]

Is there a link to the full sermon. That was excellent and so authentic. Thank you for sharing.

[skinnyrabbit]

Thank you so much Pastor.. I have been trying to find sermons from the pulpit of yours and unable to. Can you direct us where we can find more like this. I have a Calvinist home church while I am a provisionist and I long for more preaching from someone with the same theology. I loved this so much.

[huntsman]

You're a good preacher. I thoroughly enjoy your sermons, the few I've heard.
