    John speaks to us about the supreme value of love in the life of the child of God.

    The writings of the Apostle John give three definitive statements about God. "God is Spirit" (John 4224), "God is light" (1 John l:5), and now, in this passage, " God is love" (1 John 4:8, 16). John was overwhelmed with the thought that God loved him and proved His love by sending the Lord Jesus ...read more

    Spiritual maturity is tied directly to my learning to rely on God's love and relay God's love to others.

    Could we with ink the ocean fill And were the skies of parchment made; Were every stalk on earth a quill And every man a scribe by trade; To write the love of God above Would drain the ocean dry; Nor could the scroll contain the whole Though stretched from sky to sky.

    Have we allowed negativism to take root. 24 eyes see the promise land... only 4 eyes see the God of the promise. Where are we focusing? What are we expecting?

    Tina Turner asked this question but she downplayed the significance of love; calling it a ‘second-hand emotion’ and a ‘sweet old-fashioned notion'. But for those who understand the true essence of love it means much more. What’s love got to do with it?

    WHAT’S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT? Tina Turner asked this question but for a different reason than what I’ll be focusing on today. In fact, in her song, she downplays the significance of love; calling it a ‘second-hand emotion’ and a ‘sweet old-fashioned notion'. She ...read more

    Defining Love - Genuine Love Isn't Normal Series

     | 5,663 views

    Jesus followers are a weird group of people. We don’t live like other people. We don’t have the same priorities or look at life the same way as everyone else. Genuine love always points people to Jesus Christ.

    Let’s just be real here. Jesus followers are weird people. We’re wacked. We say stuff and do things that most people around us find odd, or even dumb. For example, we look for ways to bless the kind of people that others want to avoid. We want to go to prison and love on inmates. ...read more

     | 4,835 views

    The people of Jesus know how to sacrifice. Genuine followers of Jesus know what it means to be faithful and experience joy in suffering. How about you? Are you weird like that?

    We're in the second week of our series "defining love" last time we talked about how genuine love, God's love, isn't normal. We defined love as faithful and that the result of faithfulness is joy. We talked about how our culture defines love in a million different ways, but, God defines love much ...read more

     | 3,727 views

    We can say we love God if we want to, but, Jesus teaches us that the only way to follow Him, is to love and serve people like He does. Jesus wants people to find Him, to discover His redemption.

    When I was a kid my parents were missionaries in the Philippines. We lived there for three years, two in one house and one in another outside of Cebu City. In most parts of the city, including the part our first house was located, were open sewers. Ditches that were filled with water containing ...read more

    Faith is the foundation of God's message. Hope is the attitude and the focus,. .But love. Love is the action. When faith and hope are in line, you are free to love completely. And through this, we can truly "Seize the Day."

    Paul shares this hope in Christ to the Colossians ... and to all that call themselves followers of the Christ. Hear Paul's prayer: BIBLE ".... that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, ....to please Him in all respects, .... bearing fruit in every good work ....and increasing in the ...read more

     | 3,998 views

    It is a terrible mistake to separate the Work of the Holy Spirit from the Person and work of Jesus Christ as revealed in Scripture

    Will the Real Holy Spirit Please Stand Up? I John 4:1-6 Introduction We have seen that sound doctrine and sound love are both essential to the Christian faith and must be held together and not against each other.

    When it comes to love, God has set a high bar, Himself.

    We Must Love as God Loves I John 4:7-15 Introduction Last week, we were asked to test the spirits. This is because not every spiritual event comes from the Holy Spirit.

    How can we be assured of our election? It is demonstrated in our love for God, then our brethren, then our neighbors, and finally to our enemies

    True Love I John 3:13-18 Introduction In the previous section, we are told that what one does defines the person. A person is not who he/she claims to be unless they can back their words with actions. If one speaks like Jesus and acts like the devil, he/she is the latter. The principal ...read more
