    I want to look at 7 things that are proven by loving one another.

    Out of the last 16 messages out of 1 John, we have heard at least a dozen of them mention that we should love one another.

    God loves you not because of who you are but who He is. His love is uncaused and unceasing. Rest in the certainty of His love. Enjoy the blessings of His love. Give His love away.

    Everyone is looking for love. This quest is around us every day, in the music we hear and the movies we watch. • The desire is woven into the fibre of our being. We all need love. We need to be loved. • If everyone has this same need, then there must be a universal solution. That solution is in ...read more

    One of the basic instructions of Jesus is to love one another. Love is the demonstration that we are in Jesus and Jesus is in us.
