Sermon Slides: 2.23.20
For you note takers out there (I'm one of them!) we recognize that sometimes the slides change before you have a chance to write everything down. We hope, in the future, that posting the slides here on our website before Sunday will not only give you a sneak peek as to what's coming on Sunday, but also help you to focus on the teaching of God's Word and not get frustrated when you don't get all of the items off of a list. See you Sunday!

Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world.
-Jesus
John 17
Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him. In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
-1 John 4:7-11
LOVE FROM GOD IS:
Pure
Sacrificial
Yielded
“Unbelievers can love others to some degree, but not in the way that God’s indwelling presence enables Christians to love.”
-Robert Yarbrough
Verse 8: Anyone who does not love does not know God because God is love.
Verse 9: In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent His only Son into the world, so that we might live through Him.
Verse 10: In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
Verse 11: Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
Love is not merely revealed in ink on a page, but in the person of Jesus.
