Let Brotherly Love Continue – Paul M. Williams

Hebrews 13:1 Here we are again, revisiting a topic that I know each one of you are only too familiar with.  You say, Preacher, isn't there something else we can study besides this matter of love? Is there not some other treasure that you can unearth for us from Holy Writ? Brother, that's like saying, we've had enough of you mining for gold, isn't there something else you can unearth, like silver or tin, or a lump of iron or copper?  Well, I can, but you do realise that these other metals whilst important are not to be compared with the precious worth of gold?  As pertaining to that first commandment of importance, that "…royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself" (Jms. 2:8), it has no equal...no rival by which to compare. It stands in a league of its own, chief among the metals! Of all the many aspects of love, one could choose to look at, in this sermon we choose to look at the continuation of love seen in the exhortation given to the Hebrews, "Let brotherly love continue".
