The Saints we Know




Reaching Your World with Luis Palau show

Summary: The first American pastor that I ever heard, came down to Argentina in South America and had a Bible class. Before he did the Bible reading and the explanation, he told a sort of humorous ditty that he liked to quote. It goes like this: To dwell above with saints we love, why that will all be glory. To dwell below with saints we know, now that's another story. It made me laugh and I never forgot it and I was probably 18 or 19 when I heard it many, many years ago. But you know it's the truth. In heaven it will all be glory, but down here it isn't so easy to get along with people. Even those who are married sometimes. But you know the Bible says, "Love one another as I have loved you." The Lord loved us so much that He tolerates us in so many things, and even though He disciplines us, He still loves us.\One way to love your brother is to forgive. The second way to love your brother or your sister is to give correction when correction is needed, and not be afraid of losing their friendship. And thirdly, to pray. We can pray for them. There's other principles, but when you pray for one another it's not so easy to be angry at each other and break away from each other. Love one another like Jesus loved us. This is Luis Palau.
