“Let’s Give Some Love” John 13:34,35 Pastor Fred Jantz
WE ALWAYS NEED LOVE A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another. Jn. 13:34 Love is described in I Cor. 13. Love is a supernatural gift of the SPIRIT. Gal. 5:18 - 24 The Bible gives us examples of LOVE: 1. Willing to be 'rejected' for sake of those whom you love. Ex. 32:32, Rom. 9:3 2. Two friends whose souls were knit together. I Sam. 18:1-3 3. Jesus loves His friends. Jn. 11:35, 36 4. Parable of a runaway son. Lk. 15:11-24 5. Jesus loves Peter in spite of. Jn. 21:15-19 6. Sinful people are loved as they are. Rom. 5:8 7. Partnering in the Gospel. Phil 1:1-11 Giving and Getting Love.
