Love is a choice. We choose who to love. We choose what to love. The more rampant is sin, the more the love of God grows cold. Jesus said if we love the way we should, love God first and love our neighbors, all the laws are fulfilled. The first step of apostasy is losing love for God- growing in love for the things of this world, loving pleasure, love of money; these are wrong loves. In Revealtion 2, Jesus tells the church at Ephesus to <strong>remember<\/strong> (their first love) and <strong>repent<\/strong> or they would be <strong>removed<\/strong>. Preaching is to help us remember, to exhort us to build ourselves up in the Word, in prayer and faithfulness. These are the things that keep us in the love of God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div\r\n    id=\"h5ap-player-1\"\r\n    data-id=\"h5ap-player-1\"\r\n    data-attributes=\"{&quot;uniqueId&quot;:&quot;player1963&quot;,&quot;clientId&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;align&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;alignment&quot;:&quot;center&quot;,&quot;source&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.googleapis.com\\\/drive\\\/v3\\\/files\\\/1oSV0BsxJTjoDrphdWryhBfWs7fL6t7Np?alt=media\\u0026amp;key=AIzaSyC_WXBlORAm3srfhx95u-1bJaqZcV14f7U&quot;,&quot;poster&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;01\\\/12\\\/2025PM Keep Yourselves In The Love Of God&quot;,&quot;artist&quot;:&quot;Author Name&quot;,&quot;color&quot;:&quot;#fff&quot;,&quot;textColor&quot;:&quot;#fff&quot;,&quot;primaryColor&quot;:&quot;#195FF6&quot;,&quot;hoverColor&quot;:&quot;#00B3FF&quot;,&quot;controlColor&quot;:&quot;#fff&quot;,&quot;bgColor&quot;:&quot;#333&quot;,&quot;skin&quot;:&quot;Fusion&quot;,&quot;repeat&quot;:false,&quot;autoplay&quot;:false,&quot;isSticky&quot;:false,&quot;muted&quot;:false,&quot;loader&quot;:true,&quot;saveState&quot;:false,&quot;disablePause&quot;:false,&quot;seekTime&quot;:30,&quot;startTime&quot;:0,&quot;preload&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;download&quot;:true,&quot;width&quot;:&quot;100%&quot;,&quot;radius&quot;:&quot;10px&quot;,&quot;controls&quot;:{&quot;play&quot;:true,&quot;progress&quot;:true,&quot;duration&quot;:true,&quot;mute&quot;:true,&quot;volume&quot;:true,&quot;settings&quot;:true},&quot;options&quot;:{&quot;volume&quot;:&quot;50&quot;},&quot;CSS&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;i18n&quot;:{&quot;restart&quot;:&quot;Restart&quot;,&quot;rewind&quot;:&quot;Rewind {seektime}s&quot;,&quot;play&quot;:&quot;Play&quot;,&quot;pause&quot;:&quot;Pause&quot;,&quot;fastForward:&quot;:&quot;Forward {seektime}s&quot;,&quot;seek&quot;:&quot;Seek&quot;,&quot;seekLabel&quot;:&quot;{currentTime} of {duration}&quot;,&quot;played&quot;:&quot;Played&quot;,&quot;buffered&quot;:&quot;Buffered&quot;,&quot;currentTime:&quot;:&quot;Current Time&quot;,&quot;duration&quot;:&quot;Duration&quot;,&quot;volume&quot;:&quot;Volume&quot;,&quot;mute&quot;:&quot;Mute&quot;,&quot;unmute&quot;:&quot;Unmute&quot;,&quot;enableCaptions&quot;:&quot;Enable captions&quot;,&quot;disableCaptions&quot;:&quot;Disable captions&quot;,&quot;download&quot;:&quot;Download&quot;,&quot;enterFullscreen&quot;:&quot;Enter fullscreen&quot;,&quot;exitFullscreen&quot;:&quot;Exit fullscreen&quot;,&quot;frameTitle&quot;:&quot;Player for {title}&quot;,&quot;captions&quot;:&quot;Captions&quot;,&quot;settings&quot;:&quot;Settings&quot;,&quot;pip&quot;:&quot;PIP&quot;,&quot;menuBack&quot;:&quot;Go back to previous menu&quot;,&quot;speed&quot;:&quot;Speed&quot;,&quot;normal&quot;:&quot;Normal&quot;,&quot;quality&quot;:&quot;Quality&quot;,&quot;loop&quot;:&quot;Loop&quot;,&quot;start&quot;:&quot;Start&quot;,&quot;end&quot;:&quot;End&quot;,&quot;all&quot;:&quot;All&quot;,&quot;reset&quot;:&quot;Reset&quot;,&quot;disabled&quot;:&quot;Disabled&quot;,&quot;enabled&quot;:&quot;Enabled&quot;,&quot;advertisement&quot;:&quot;Ad&quot;,&quot;qualityBadge&quot;:{&quot;2160&quot;:&quot;4K&quot;,&quot;1440&quot;:&quot;HD&quot;,&quot;1080&quot;:&quot;HD&quot;,&quot;720&quot;:&quot;HD&quot;,&quot;576&quot;:&quot;SD&quot;,&quot;480&quot;:&quot;SD&quot;}},&quot;multiple_audio&quot;:false,&quot;speed&quot;:{&quot;selected&quot;:1,&quot;speed&quot;:[&quot;0.5&quot;,&quot;
