“Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor.” — Romans 12:10 “We love because he first loved us. If anyone says, ‘I love God,’ and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen. And this commandment we have from him: whoever loves God must also love his brother.” — 1 John 4:19-21 1. Love is a Battle of Motivation. “We love because he first loved us.” — 1 John 4:19 The love of God for us awakens our love for one another. “God…because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ.” — Ephesians 2:4-5 “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death.” — Romans 8:1-2 2. Love is a Battle of Hypocrisy. “If anyone says, ‘I love God,’ and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen.” — 1 John 4:20 To love God and not love your brother is to live a lie. “The reason we do not love others in the way that we should is because we do not love God in the way that we claim.” — Paul Tripp 3. Love is a Battle of Deception. “If anyone says, ‘I love God,’ and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen.” — 1 John 4:20 The truest measure of the quality of your love for God is seen in the way you love others. 4.

“Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor.” — Romans 12:10 “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. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us.” — 1 John 4:10-12 1. Love Defined. “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.” — 1 John 4:10 “All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.” — Romans 3:23 “For God so loved the world that He sent His One and Only Son…” — John 3:16 “…the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord.” — Romans 6:23 Love is defined by the cross of Christ. 2. Love’s Design. “Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.” — 1 John 4:11 What does the love of Jesus look like? (*Adopted from a list by Paul Tripp.) 1. The love of Jesus is a committed love. 2. The love of Jesus comes from a willing heart. 3. The love of Jesus is deeply forgiving. “We don’t love the way Jesus called us to love because we aren’t willing to forgive the way Jesus has forgiven. And so, we carry thoughts of condemnation; we rehearse people’s failures in our heads; we keep record of wrongs. In moments of gossip, we share the sin and failure of someone with somebody else. Listen! It’s very hard to move lovingly towards someone you are, at that moment, condemning.” – Paul Tripp 4. The love of Jesus is unrelenting. 5. The love of Jesus is incarnational. “No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us.” — 1 John 4:12

“Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor.” — Romans 12:10 “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.” — 1 John 4:7–9 1. The Call to Love “Beloved, let us love one another….” — 1 John 4:7a The call to love is central to the life of a child of God. “We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers…” — 1 John 3:14 2. The Source of Love “…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.” — 1 John 4:7b-8 Follow what John is saying: - God is love. - Those who know God are His children. - God’s children take on His nature. - Therefore, God’s children will love like God loves. “…for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God.” — 1 John 4:7b “It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me.” — Galatians 2:20 “Love is from God the way heat is from fire, or the way light is from the sun. Love belongs to God’s nature. It’s woven into what he is. It’s part of what it means to be God. The sun gives light because it is light. And fire gives heat because it is heat. So John’s point is that in the new birth, this aspect of the divine nature becomes part of who you are. The new birth is the imparting to you of divine life, and an indispensable part of that life is love. God’s nature is love, and in the new birth that nature becomes part of who you are.…” — John Piper, “The New Birth Produces Love” 3. The Manifestation of 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.” — 1 John 4:9 “God demonstrated His love in this, while we were sinners Christ died for us.” — Romans 5:8 This text is about being so deeply transformed by the love of God within that we live the supernatural love of God without. “By this all men will know you are my disciples because of your love for one another.” — John 13:35
