Bears, Believes, Hopes, Endures All Things (1 Cor 13:4-7) PROPERTIES OF LOVE Bears, Believes, Hopes, Endures All Things (1 Cor 13:4-7)

Love is tenacious, it “never fails” Love never tires in the pursuit of doing what is best for others. God loves with an everlasting love (Jer 31:3; cf. Psa 136:1, 4-9, 23-26). God offers that love today in Christ Jesus our Lord (Rom 8:37-39).

LOVE BEARS ALL THINGS Love will cover an offense with silence, to protect (1 Pet 4:8; Prov 10:12). Love is willing to put up with a lot to do what is best for someone else.

LOVE BELIEVES ALL THINGS Love chooses to believe the best in others (Heb 5:8-11; 10:25; 6:7-9). Love does not quickly attribute evil motives to character or actions.

LOVE HOPES ALL THINGS Love refuses to accept failure as final. Love for the churches caused Paul to hope for their spiritual growth (1 Thess 4:1-8; 2:19).

LOVE ENDURES ALL THINGS Love perseveres; it never stops bearing, believing & hoping all things. Love for Christ will endure trials & ill-treatment to keep the faith (Matt 10:22; 1 Peter 2:20). Love gave Jesus the strength to endure (John 1:10-13; Isa 53:3; Luke 19:14; 20:13-15; John 3:31-32).

God’s love will bear with us, believe in us, hope for us & endure all things with us (Heb 1:5-6; 1 Cor 1:7-9) “Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God, for God is love”(1 John 4:7-8).

Forgiveness of Sin: Salvation! Faith in Jesus Christ through the Gospel John 8:24; 20:30-31; Rom 1:16; 10:9-10; Mark 16:16; Heb 11:6 Repent or turn from sins Luke 24:46-47; Acts 2:38; 3:19; 17:30-31 Confess faith in Christ Matt 10:32-33; Acts 8:36-38; Rom 10:9-10 Be baptized (immersed) in water Matt 28:19; Mk 16:16; Acts 2:38; Rom 6:3-4; 1 Pet 3:21 Live in obedient faith Heb 5:8-9; 1 Peter 1:14; Rev 2:10
