  7. Having a RMA means that:a. You overcome fear b. You love yourselfc. You have a mental attitude love towards othersd. You are content in all areas of your life

  8. b. You must Love Yourself: Before you can have a RMA and love someone else you have to have SSE and love yourself.

  9. You should love yourself based on God’s perfection and righteousness inside of you.

  10. 1) Self-Esteem can mean respect for self, satisfaction with one's self, or a good opinion of one's self. But those are superficial definitions.

  11. 2) SSE is:a) Confidence in what you know (God’s Word), and how to put it into operation.

  12. b) Maximum humility and minimum arrogance.

  13. b) Maximum humility and minimum arrogance. c) Confidence in God, and confidence in the Word of God.

  14. d) It is not confidence in the energy of the flesh.

  15. Psa 118:8-9, “It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to have confidence in mankind. It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to have confidence in princes.”

  16. Prov 19:8, “He who gets wisdom, keeps loving his own soul; He who guards understanding shall find the absolute good (spiritual prosperity).”

  17. Heb 13:5, “Let your lifestyle be free from the love for money and be content with what you have; for He Himself has said, ‘I will never desert you, nor will I ever forsake you’.”

  18. Eph 6:23, “Peace (harmony) be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.”

  19. a) Harmony is the RMA related to the thinking function of the spiritual life. Harmony among believers demands humility, grace orientation, and love.

  20. b) Believers with SSE do not feel threatened by enmity, antagonism, vilification, ostracism, rejection, or any form of hostility.

  21. c. Mental Attitude Love leads to a RMA: With AGAPE Love we overcome fear and gain a RMA.

  22. God is AGAPE. He possesses AGAPE love, 1 John 4:8, 16. With AGAPE love God solves all of His people problems.

  23. 1) AGAPE type love is found only in the mentality of the soul. It is the capacity to love which comes from the filling of the Holy Spirit and knowledge of Bible doctrine.

  24. It reflects freedom from mental attitude sins toward God and toward people.

  25. John 15:12-13, is strictly an order to maintain a RMA, although mental attitude love often prompts overt manifestations or expressions toward the object loved, (e.g., John 3:16).

  26. 2) Capacity for love begins with mental attitude AGAPE.

  27. Through the function of GAP, it spreads throughout the soul and becomes PHILOS, a total soul love.

  28. 3) Having a RMA is based on you having the mind of God, Jesus Christ, in your soul which leads to spiritual growth and the capacity to AGAPE.

  29. AGAPE love is produced by the Balance of Residency, linked with the mentality of the soul.
