    Love Is A Verb (Lectionary, Year B, Fourth Sunday After Easter)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Apr 21, 2021
     | 3,165 views

    We are called to live out God’s love and truth through our deeds by keeping God’s commandment to love one another in the name of Jesus Christ (I John 3:23)! Love is a verb because the kind of love that today’s text is talking about requires us to go beyond words and put love into action.

    LOVE IS A VERB Text: I John 3:16- 24 1 John 3:16-24  We know love by this, that he laid down his life for us—and we ought to lay down our lives for one another.  (17)  How does God's love abide in anyone who has the world's goods and sees a brother or sister in need and yet ...read more

    We are commanded to follow the example of Jesus Christ by laying aside ourselves in sacrificial love of others.

    JESUS SAID IN JOHN 15:12-14, “MY COMMAND IS THIS: LOVE EACH OTHER AS I HAVE LOVED YOU. GREATER LOVE HAS NO ONE THAN THIS: TO LAY DOWN ONE’S LIFE FOR ONE’S FRIENDS. YOU ARE MY FRIENDS IF YOU DO WHAT I COMMAND.” JESUS IS NOT ASKING US TO DIE FOR HIM! HE IS LOOKING FOR SOMETHING ELSE. HE ISN’T ASKING ...read more

    God fills you with love, and as you mature in Christ, that drives out the fear of eternal damnation, the only real fear worth mentioning.

    5th Sunday of Easter We’ve grown so accustomed to seeing St. Paul as one of the good guys of history, especially of Catholic or Christian history that we might be shocked by today’s reading from the Acts. Paul comes to Jerusalem after a three-year retreat in the Arabian desert. He comes full of ...read more

    Coming Into Maturity: Grace, Love, And Service

    The world may be against us. It most certainly is. But it isn't so bad. God is with us. Of course it's better to be with God. Hopefully we can keep those one in the same. And mainly by not keeping anything, but allowing God to do the "keeping."

    Proverb 29:27 The righteous despise the unjust; the wicked despise the godly. The dichotomy mentioned is Proverb 29:27 is being played out in our culture today. Jesus said the world will hate you. But take heart, I have overcome the world. The world may be against us. It most certainly is. ...read more

    Tying the Gospel portion of the lectionary (John 15:1 - 8) to today’s text (I John 4:7 -21) we can draw the conclusion that if we are detached from the life giving vine that we are incomplete, insecure, dissatisfied and spiritually starving.

    PERFECTING LOVE Text: I John 4:7 - 21 1 John 4:7-21  Beloved, let us love one another, because love is from God; everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. (8) Whoever does not love does not know God, for God is love.  (9)  God's love was revealed among us in this way: ...read more

    Written in 2020, this message applies to all fear; but especially addresses fear of the Corona Virus. Fear is part of the human condition; but our fears would cease if we would place our hope in Jesus Christ, instead of our false securities.

    I’ve entitled our sermon for this morning, “Take Off Your Mask and Be Unafraid.” All of us want to feel as though we have a good handle on life and that nothing ever shakes us; but in reality, we are fearful creatures. So, what are some common fears we might see? Well, some people fear growing ...read more
