    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

    But there’s more to Christian life. Much more. It’s a series of challenges and privileges that come to us with our existence in human society. We model our love for other human beings on the love God has for us.

    Seventh Sunday of Easter The prophet Isaiah said it several hundred years before Jesus was born: “My thoughts are not your thoughts. Your ways are not my ways.” Our psalm says it in another way: “As far as the east is from the west, so far has [God] put our transgressions from us.” God is not ...read more

    We have all heard the proverbial expression The proof is in the pudding." For example, someone might say, "This is real good chocolate pudding."

    For example, someone might say, And so someone might say, "I really love God!" But, these are only words. They might be true or they might not be. Just saying something does not make it so! In fact anyone can say anything he wants to say, but that does not make it true. In this passage ...read more

    John is saying there are and will be a lot of deep fakes in the world. Not everything that claims to be spiritual is genuinely spiritual. The big question is how will we be able to distinguish between what’s real and what’s fake? How do we know if something is from God or not?

    Today, we come to the 4th sermon in our Walking with Jesus series. As we read through the book of 1 John, we see that God is not only preparing us for what we need for the present but also for the future. 1 John 4:1-21 1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether ...read more

    Where Does Love Come From?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 21, 2023
     | 1,198 views

    If we center ourselves on God, abiding in His giving love, there could be no avenue for the works of the flesh to enter into our lives.

    For this passage of Scripture, we need to understand the four types of love. There is the Agape – unconditional love (Godly), the Philia – beneficial love (brotherly), the Storge – family love, and the Eros – romantic love. In verses 7-8: Everybody accepts that love is significant, yet we ...read more

    What God’s Love Do In Our Lives

    In Chicago a few years ago a little boy walked to Sunday school every Sunday. When his parents moved to another part of the city the little boy still attended the same Sunday school, although it meant a longer distance to walk.

    A friend asked him why he went so far when there were plenty of other churches near his home. He said, “I attend my church because they love a fellow over there.” If only we could convince the world that we loved them there would be fewer empty pews in our churches. A TRUE DEFINITION OF LOVE. ...read more

    Many four-letter words are used tritely as vulgar and profane slang or to curse someone.

    The word "love" is also a four-letter word used so commonly that its true meaning and significance has been lost. People say they 'love' their house, car, clothes, church, school, pets, food, family, friends, hairdo, music, makeup, movies, etc., and they 'love' God. The ...read more
