    Our command therefore for living rightly is simple: believe in Jesus Christ and love one another as He has commanded. It’s in the fruit of our lives where we see whether or not this is being lived out.

    What is love? 1 John Bible Study, Part 8 1 John 3:11-24 Introduction - We have been born of God (v9), therefore He lives within us -- His seed is: The word, The Holy Spirit, and the regenerate spirit we gain -- Scripture repeatedly reminds us that we are born again -- That we should live ...read more

    We know the love of God, because of what Jesus did for us. We obey his leading on our lives and we are confident before God. We are able through our lives to lead others to salvation to show them the example of the Holy Spirit at work in our lives!

    We know - we obey - we have confidence! 1 John 3:16-24 There’s this thing about love that is a feeling thing and I know I’ve discussed all sorts of love songs and their meanings before and the thoughts of love that people have for love another. I was somewhere recently where there was a ...read more

    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.

    What The World Needs Now Is Love

    Contributed by John Lowe on Apr 27, 2013
     | 14,124 views

    One of our most basic needs is to be loved. The lyrics of a classic song reflect this worldwide longing—“What the world needs now is love, sweet love, and that’s the only thing there’s too little of.” God has met this need in Christ.

    Putting Our Love Into Action Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 23, 2016
     | 14,081 views

    Our efforts for the Lord will be futile without love. We know the Bible commands that we love one another, and yet we fail to fully heed the command. Our world needs to experience love in action, not just in word.

    Putting our Love into Action 1 John 3: 11-17 Our text this evening continues to deal with the great theme of love that John has already dealt with extensively. I suppose there is no wonder John felt so impressed to emphasize love among the believers. He was blessed to walk with the Lord, studying ...read more

    This passage centers around one basic truth for people that believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. People that believe in God and in Jesus Christ are considered to be “children of God.” Focus on purity as God's children.

    John tells us that a true child of God seeks to be gracious and generous.

    The theme of this portion of 1 John is love. But instead of portraying the need for believers to love one another in a positive light, John speaks to us about loving one another by emphasizing the negative. In these verses, he tells us what a lack of love will lead to. 1. Murder - vs. ...read more
