    Love That Doesn't Fail Series

    Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Jun 26, 2014
     | 5,977 views

    This is why Jesus made a sacrifice for you and me. Because he really loves us. A love that doesn't fail is a love that sacrifices. The world has no idea what this real love is, because the world is selfish.

    According to John those who say they love God show it by obeying the Word of God. There were those who were false teachers during John's day who claimed that they were apostles, too, just like John. There were others who claimed that Jesus wasn't really human, he didn't really suffer and die as a ...read more

    Genuine believers put in great effort toward loving fellow believers, and yet are willing to be hated for doing right.

    Love in Bloom (I John 3:11-18) 1. In the world, a lot of people do things for spite. Here are a few real life examples from some blogs: Today, my boss got mad at me because I told her that I wouldn't be able to work two days out of the week, due to college classes.

    One of the questions that gets asked is why did Jesus have to die? Couldn't there have been some other way to accomplish salvation for mankind? Today we'll look to answer that question and see why Jesus had to die.

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

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Apr 21, 2021
     | 3,127 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
