IN THE LIGHT “Week Eight: 1 John 4:7-21”

June 20, 2021   /   Vaughn Forest Church

7 “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.” – 1 John 4:7-8

(1) God love on His terms, not ours.

9 “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.”                – 1 John 4:9-10

(2) God to prove His love so we could experience life. 

“Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.”  – 1 John 4:11 

(3) God we love by His terms, not ours.

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. 13 This is how we know that we live in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit.” – 1 John 4:12-13

(4) God His love through us. 

14 “And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. 15 If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in them and they in God.” – 1 John 4:14-15

(5) God we should be the ones who tell others about His love. 

16 “And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. 17 This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus.” – 1 John 4:16-17 

(6) God over and over. And this is why we are confident. 

18 “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. 19 We love because he first loved us.” – 1 John 4:18-19

(7) God away fear with His type of love.   

20 “Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen. 21 And he has given us this command: Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister.” – 1 John 4:20-21

(8) God loving Him as loving others.
