Sermons on The Love Chapter:

The Blessing Of Love Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 15, 2019

The Spirit of God makes the love of God real to us. The Father is for us, the Son is for us, and the Spirit is for us. Nothing can separate us from His love. Is there any reason why we should not be “more than conquerors”?

(29) The Blessing of Love Romans 8:31-39 31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? 33 Who shall bring a charge against God’s ...read more

Whether you're married or not married, this is hopefully going to enlighten you to what marriage and relationship is all about to a higher level.

God Is Love

Contributed by Stan Lobin on Nov 16, 2022

What do we do with the the fact that God is love and we were created in His image? How do we, in our brokenness, love an invisible God and those hard to love people that God has commanded us to love? God has a plan or a road map for us to follow to make us more loving.

God is love! Of course all Christians should have heard that phrase and believe that it is true because we are told that God is love in the Bible. 1 John 4:7-21 NASB 7 Beloved, let’s love one another; for love is from God, and everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 The one who ...read more

A Look At Love

Contributed by Lee Houston on Jan 9, 2025

This week’s sermon will cover one word whose understandings are central to Judeo-Christian beliefs: I will explain one English word, Love. Why? The Greek language has nine different words for Love with six of those nine translated into bible text.

Sermon: A Look at Love Specific Purpose: The writers of our New Testament wrote mostly in Greek. This sermon's purpose is to investigate the Greek words for 'love'. As pastors, we do our best to explain some point in God’s Word in each sermon. That means we must first dig into ...read more

LOVE: THE TEST 1 John 4:7-8 - Question: What is the mark of a Christian? What is the test that stands true in showing us that someone is a Christian? - Is it church attendance? Wearing witness wear?

The Conviction Of Love Series

Contributed by James Bohrer on Sep 6, 2017

RUTH 1 The Conviction of Love Love is a choice. God loved us when we behaved in unlovable ways. Romans 5:8 “ CHAPTER 1:3-10; 14-19 3 Then Elimelech, Naomi’s husband, died; and she was left with her two sons. 4 They took for themselves Moabite women as wives; the name of the one was Orpah and the ...read more

"Loved To The Uttermost"

Contributed by Clark Tanner on Mar 23, 2010

Even while we were helpless, sinful, enemies, Christ died for us.

“For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die. 8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 9 ...read more

Substance Of Love Series

Contributed by Chris Talton on Dec 3, 2002

Everyone is searching for love. But many people are listening to the wrong definition of love. The only one qualified to define love is God for He is the source of all love.

November 10, 2002 I Corinthians 13:4-7 ¡§The substance of Love¡¨ INTRODUCTION I think that I would be safe in saying that everyone wants to be loved. And in their desire to be loved, they will try almost anything. ¡§A young man was determined to win the affection of a lady who refused to ...read more

Where's The Love

Contributed by David Petticrew on Mar 16, 2004

Uses the Black Eyed Peas’ song Where’s the Love as an outline for looking at the Christian concept of love (points out a few errors in the Black Eyed Peas thinking from a Christian perspective).

Introduction There’s a song currently towards the top end of the music chart which I have listened to over the past month or so, on the radio as I drive back and forwards to Manchester each week and it causes me to think. You see initially the song appears to be quite Christian in its outlook and ...read more
