God is Loving June 8

What do you think? What motivates one person to love another person? Last week we studied how God is the power at work to make us holy. Similarly God is at work in our lives transforming us into people who love Today we look at John’s discussion of this fact

Listen for the source of love. 1 John 4:7-8 (NIV) Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. [8] Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.

God Is Love What is the relationship between loving and knowing God? What does the passage say about how God's love for us should affect us? How is the kind of love described here different from human forms of love? How is love an action verb?

God Is Love What is the difference between saying “God loves” and “God is love”? What are some specific actions through which we could demonstrate love in our homes? What are some specific actions through which we could demonstrate love in our church? God Loves God Is Love

Listen for a definition of love. 1 John 4:9-10 (NIV) This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. [10] This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.

God Showed His Love So, how did God show His love? Note the terms “atoning sacrifice” and “propitiation” Consider the synonyms: God’s righteous indignation against sin had to be satisfied. God’s love for humanity compelled Him to pour out His wrath on Jesus… so that we might live through Him

God Showed His Love Note the results of the atonement as listed in your learner study guides Peace with God Freedom from sin The ultimate power over death … everlasting life

God Showed His Love What is John’s definition of love? Why should God’s love motivate you to love others? What strikes you as remarkable in these two verses?

Listen for a command. 1 John 4:11-12 (NIV) Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. [12] No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us

Love One Another John tells us to love one another. What makes Christians able to comply with this command? John also tells us that no one has seen God. Since Jesus is not physically present, how are people to get to know God’s love?

Love One Another How will being loved by God shape the way you live? What do you think it means that God’s love is ‘made perfect’ (NASB) or ‘completed’ (NIV) in us?

Application Embrace God’s love Pray specifically for God to help you understand His love for you Pray that you can believe it, receive it, and act upon it

Application Reflect God’s love This week make an effort to express love to someone in a way that mirrors God’s love for you Remember that this is most effective when you express love to someone who doesn’t deserve it

Application Seek Reconciliation Identify a relationship that has been strained or broken in recent years Let God’s love empower you to request or offer forgiveness in that relationship
