Love: a new goal Col 3:14 But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection. 3:14 “put on love which is the perfect bond of unity” Love, which issues in unity, is the distinctive mark of the Christian (cf. Eph. 4:2–3; 1 Cor, 13; Gal. 5:22). Paul leaves the greatest and highest grace to the last: ‘But above all these things put on love'. Christian love is above all these other important and beautiful graces because it is self-sacrificing, self-giving, and the fulfilment of both the law and the gospel. It is a new commandment given to us by our Savior (John 13:34–35). The local church needs lashings of love for unity to be maintained. Put on … love (Col. 3:14). This is the most important of the Christian virtues, and it acts like a “girdle” that ties all the other virtues together. All of the spiritual qualities Paul has named are aspects of true Christian love, as a reading of 1 Corinthians 13 will reveal. Love is the first of the fruit of the Spirit and the other virtues follow—joy (Col. 3:16), peace (Col. 3:15), long-suffering, gentleness, kindness, and meekness (Col. 3:12). When love rules in our lives, it unites all these spiritual virtues so that there is beauty and harmony, indicating spiritual maturity. This harmony and maturity keep the life balanced and growing. The gnostic system could never do this.[1] Once again, Paul gives the Colossians the responsibility for making changes to their lives. The new clothes are beautiful gifts from God, but putting them on is the work of every individual Christian. The most important item of all is love, which Paul imagines as either an overgarment or a belt. Love unites all the other qualities, and makes the outfit perfect.[1] THE SUPREMACY OF LOVE: ‘above all these things put on love'. Philosophy was the ‘false teachers” trump card, however, ‘the love of God poured out in our hearts' (Rom. 5:5) is the ultimate thing. It is superior to all other graces (1 Cor. 13; 1 Thes. 3:12). THE STRENGTH OF LOVE: ‘which is the bond of perfection'. Love is like cement or belt that binds all the holy graces together in perfect harmony. Love completes and to keep our illustration of holy apparel, it completes the outfit. If there is no love then the other graces are only duty, cold morality or at best good manners. But love makes them all acceptable to God (even when they are imperfect). Col 3:15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful. In this verse Paul turned from character to conduct. How can a Christian know when he is doing God's will? One answer is: the peace of Christ in the heart and in the church. When the believer loses his inner peace, he knows that he has in some way disobeyed God. 3:15 “Let the peace of Christ” This term originally meant “binding together that which was broken” (cf. John 14:27; 16:33; Phil. 4:7). There are three ways the NT speaks of peace: (1) as the objective (doctrinal) aspect of our peace with God through Christ (cf. Col. 1:20); (2) as the subjective (experiential) aspect of our being right with God (cf. John 14:27; 16:33; Phil. 4:7); and (3) as God's uniting believing Jews and Gentiles into one new people (body) through Christ which is the mystery of God (cf. Eph. 2:14–17; Col. 3:15). The word translated “rule” is an athletic term. It means “to preside at the games and distribute the prizes.” Paul used a variation of this word in his Letter to the Colossians: “Let no one declare you unworthy of a prize” (literal translation, Col. 2:18). In the Greek games, there were judges (we would call them umpires) who rejected the contestants who were not qualified, and who disqualified those who broke the rules. The peace of God is the “Umpire” in our believing hearts and our churches. When we obey the will of God, we have His peace within; but when we step out of His will (even unintentionally), we lose His peace. THE SIGN OF LOVE: love teaches us how to talk to each other, how to cope with each other and how to forgive. It fills the heart with God's peace (v. 15). This is a subjective ‘peace' (it is felt within) which is intended to ‘rule', i.e. to ‘act like an umpire' who keeps us right and tells us when we are wrong. There must be no racial barriers, cultural barriers or social barriers when love is in control. Love is a telling sign of regeneration. We must beware, however, of a false peace in the heart. Jonah deliberately disobeyed God, yet he was able to go to sleep in the hold of a ship in a storm! “I had peace about it!” is not sufficient evidence that we are in the will of God. We must pray, surrender to His will, and seek His guidance in the Scriptures. The peace of heart alone is not always the peace of God. Something else is involved: if we have peace in our hearts, we will be at peace with others in the church. We are called to one body, and our relationship in that body must be one of harmony and peace. If we are out of the will of God, we are certain to bring discord and disharmony to the church. Jonah thought he was at peace, when actually his sins created a storm! When a Christian loses the peace of God, he begins to go off in directions that are out of the will of God. He turns to the things of the world and the flesh to compensate for his lack of peace within. He tries to escape, but he cannot escape himself! It is only when he confesses his sin, claims God's forgiveness, and does God's will that he experiences God's peace within. When there is peace in the heart, there will be praise on the lips: “And be ye thankful” (Col. 3:15). The Christian out of God's will is never found giving sincere praise to God. When David covered up his sins, he lost his peace and his praise (Pss. 32; 51). When he confessed his sins, then his song returned.[1] “rule” This is a PRESENT ACTIVE IMPERATIVE. In contrast to the false teachers acting as umpires in 2:18, Christ is our only judge, guide and arbiter. “you were called” God always takes the initiative in calling, electing, and wooing believers to Himself (cf. v. 12; John 6:44, 65; Eph. 1:4–5, 11). The term “calling” (kaleō) is used in several theological senses: (1) sinners are called by God through Christ to salvation; (2) sinners call on the name of the Lord to be saved (cf. Rom. 10:9–13); (3) believers are called to live Christ like lives (cf. Eph. 4:1); and (4) believers are called to ministry tasks (cf. 1 Cor. 12:4–7). “in one body” This speaks of unity amidst diversity (cf. 1:18, 24; Eph. 4:4–6)! Notice that the emphasis is not on personal election, but corporate election. Salvation is corporate, not just individual. In reaction to the abuses of power in the Roman Church, the Protestant Reformers emphasized the rights and responsibilities of the individual before God. However, their formulation became a biblical overstatement. The Bible does not teach the “priesthood of the believer,” but “the priesthood of believer s.” It is not a doctrine which emphasizes the freedom of the individual, but the body-life responsibility of each believer (cf. 1 Cor. 12:7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all:). “be thankful” This was a PRESENT ACTIVE IMPERATIVE, “keep on always being thankful.” Thankfulness is a sign of Christian maturity, of the Spirit-filled life (cf. v. 17; Eph. 5:20; 1 Thess. 5:18). It is not a resignation to determinism (Islam), but a biblical world-view that God is with us and for us even amidst the difficulties and circumstances of this fallen world! Mark 8:36 "For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. Have you trusted Him as your Savior? He can Save you if You ask Him based on His death, burial, and resurrection for your sins. Believe in Him for forgiveness of your sins today. “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” -John 8:32 Our mission is to spread the gospel and to go to the least of these with the life-changing message of Jesus Christ; We reach out to those the World has forgotten. hisloveministries.podbean.com #HLMSocial hisloveministries.net https://www.instagram.com/hisloveministries1/?hl=en His Love Ministries on Itunes Don't go for all the gusto you can get, go for all the God (Jesus Christ) you can get.

About the series: Following the baseball analogy, parents (and grandparents) have 4 clearly defined roles in scripture. These 4 roles need to be taken seriously and applied consistently. If this happens, the child and the adults will be blessed beyond measure! About this week's message: Umpires are a needed and necessary part of the game. You can have the most beautifully marked chalk lines on the field, but they are meaningless if they are not enforced. The best umpires have a few distinct attributes that cause them to stand out among their peers and be highly respected by the players. These attributes make the best parents too! Key Phrase: “…the Lord disciplines those he loves.” Hebrews 12:6

Die Strike Zone ist kleiner geworden, jedenfalls für die Bewertung ob die Umpire mit ihren Calls richtig lagen. Aaron Judge ist recht gut, finden wir. In der AL Central haben die Tigers wenig Probleme. Bei den Guardians sticht wie immer Jose Ramirez heraus. Bei den LA Angels hat sich Mike Trout verletzt, alle hoffen, dass es nicht lange dauert. Die Mariners stechen heraus, das überrascht uns. Aber auch die Astros müssen wir erwähnen, da sie weiterhin gute Leistung zeigen. Die Athletics stechen sportlich heraus, aber wir können uns nicht so richtig darüber freuen. Juan Soto hat seinen ersten HR im Citi Field geschlagen, aber derzeit brauchen die Mets diese Unterstützung gar nicht. Die Braves kommen langsam in die Spur. In der NL Central führen die Cubs trotz schwerem Auftaktprogramm. Im Westen gibt es nichts Neues, die Division strotzt nur so vor guten Teams. Kike Hernandez darf bei den Dodgers in einem Spiel pitchen und wir fragen uns, ob das okay ist. Die Rockies sind schlecht, auch wenn sie ein Spiel gegen einen Divisionsrivalen gewonnen haben. Wenn ihr uns unterstützen wollt, dann macht dies gerne bei Steady Du findest uns bei Instagram, BlueSky. Play Ball!

Gio and Jerry filled in for a sick Boomer, discussing their health issues, including Jerry's penis camera scope story (with many 'penis' drops from Eddie). Gio predicted another bad year for the Giants and Jets in the upcoming NFL draft, stating Justin Fields "stinks" and neither team will draft Shedeur Sanders. C-Lo gave his first update, likely with hiccups. Dave Sims called Aaron Judge's homer as the Yankees swept the Royals and will play the Rays in their spring training home. The Mets lost their series in Minnesota. The hour ended with news of an umpire hit by a line drive in the Mets game, highlighting the need for umpire batting helmets.
In a heated matchup at Great American Ball Park, the Cincinnati Reds fell 5-3 to the Seattle Mariners on April 16, 2025, snapping their four-game win streak. The game, however, was overshadowed by a controversial umpire decision that left Reds fans fuming. In the eighth inning, with the Reds trailing 5-3, star shortstop Elly De La Cruz stole second base, a play that could have shifted momentum. Umpire Chris Segal, however, called De La Cruz out on an interference call, a decision that baffled players, coaches, and fans alike. Posts on X captured the outrage, with fans booing loudly and one user calling it a "phantom call" that changed the game's outcome. The interference ruling, which occurred with runners on base, killed a potential Reds rally. De La Cruz's speed and base-stealing prowess (4 steals this season) made the call particularly costly. Despite a valiant effort, including three runs in the seventh fueled by Christian Encarnacion-Strand and Jose Trevino, Cincinnati couldn't overcome the early 5-0 deficit or the disputed call. Cal Raleigh's two homers and Bryce Miller's eight strikeouts powered Seattle, while Reds starter Nick Martinez struggled, allowing four runs. X posts reflected fans' frustration, with some demanding accountability from umpires and others lamenting missed opportunities. The game's box score shows De La Cruz was caught stealing, but video replays suggested the call was questionable. While umpiring controversies are part of baseball, this incident stung a Reds team fighting to maintain momentum. With a rubber match looming, Cincinnati hopes to rebound against Seattle's Bryan Woo, but the bitter taste of this loss lingers.

Baseball season has started! Today, we are going to read two short poems about baseball. The titles of the poems are “Sunday Baseball” and “The Umpire's Home.” Both of these poems are from the book titled “Right Off the Bat” written by William Kirk.

Fungal networks in the ground ferry crucial nutrients to plants. But how do brainless organisms form complex supply chain networks? Also, in this year's baseball spring training, the new Automated Ball-Strike System is helping settle challenges to home plate pitch calls.Scientists Observe Fungi Creating Complex Supply ChainsAs the leaves start to pop out, it's natural to look up and admire the trees. But actually, there's a lot of action happening underneath your feet. Beneath you is a complex network of fungal trade routes carrying essential nutrients to the roots of plants, mined from the soil by fungus. It's a subterranean supply chain.But how exactly do these complex networks form? How does the fungus decide where to ship which resources, or where to build roads? Basically, how does a brainless thread make decisions?Host Flora Lichtman is joined by Dr. Toby Kiers, an author on a recent study of those networks, and professor of evolutionary biology at Vrije University in Amsterdam. She's also the executive director of the Society for the Protection of Underground Networks (SPUN).A Rookie Robot Umpire Takes The FieldBaseball fans are eagerly awaiting opening day. And while spring training is a time for teams to test out new players and strategies, it's also a time for Major League Baseball to trial new rules and procedures. One of the things that the league has been testing this year is a robotic system to call balls and strikes.The Automated Ball-Strike System, which is based on the same technology used for line judging in tennis, isn't calling every pitch, but is used to back up a challenge system at the plate. The tech is already in use in Triple-A games, and could make it to the major leagues in the years ahead. Baseball writer Davy Andrews joins Host Ira Flatow to talk about the technology, and how it could subtly change the rules of the game.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

Nestor Ceja is a Major League Baseball umpire. After going through the MLB Training Academy, he worked his way through the minor leagues before making his MLB debut in August of 2020 during the shortened COVID season. In 2024, Ceja was one of seven umpires to be a part of the MLB All-Star Game. He also called his first postseason game in the NL Wild Card series between San Diego and Atlanta.Today on the podcast, Nestor Ceja discusses his upbringing in a Catholic family, his path to becoming an umpire, and the pivotal moments that led him to accept Christ. He reflects on the challenges of being an umpire, the importance of maintaining his faith amidst the pressures of the job, and the providence of God in his life. Nestor also shares his experiences in Cuba, where he was baptized, and how he stays connected to his faith during the long MLB season.Email us with your questions, thoughts and guest ideas: jason@sportsspectrum.com WATCH all of our podcast episodes on our YouTube page:https://www.youtube.com/SportsSpectrumMagazineSign up for our Sports Spectrum Magazine and receive 15% off a 1-year subscription by using the code PODCAST15https://www.theincrease.com/products/sports-spectrum-magazine Have you heard our other Sports Spectrum podcasts?Sports Spectrum's What's Up Podcast - https://open.spotify.com/show/7CvX5oXnEuKIYI5GCVT7Hi?si=9c61982675f1413dSports Spectrum's Get in the Game Podcast - https://open.spotify.com/show/7CFPZVet3TcsSJMZqRHndI?si=d6599c85917146a7Do you know Christ personally?

Today's word of the day is ‘media day' as in Super Bowl week as in Roger Goodell as in Chiefs as in Eagles as in international games as in international Super Bowl. Roger Goodell met the media and was forced to answer questions. What did he have to say? (8:18) Is an 18-game NFL season coming? You betcha it is! (15:00) How does Goodell feel about international expansion? He wants it. He sees it. And even a Super Bowl there? (19:31) Is Tom Brady staying on FOX? How can this be allowed? (22:00) Another betting scandal has rocked MLB before the season started. Last year it was Shohei Ohtani and his interpreter. This year it's an umpire. Wow. (35:15) Review: Sing Sing. (38:40) Myles Garrett wants out of Cleveland. The GM Andrew Berry says they will not trade him. Oh. (46:50) NPPOD. (48:10) We end the show where we started. New Orleans. Super Bowl week. Except this is about the Saints. And a scandal that seems to be brushed under the rug. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
