“This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. 17 If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person? 18 Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.” (1 John 3 v 16-18)
- Love is practical, it meets needs … And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. If anyone has material possessions.
- Love starts with your awareness of others … and sees a brother or sister in need.
- Love gives from your own resource …If anyone has material possessions.
- Where there is love there is giving, this is always the expectation … how can the love of God be in that person?
- Love needs action as well as words … Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.
- Love is the genuine experience of Jesus Christ … but with … truth.
