What is love?
Do you believe in love at first sight?
What is love at first sight?
Movies always show it
can you love someone without knowing them?
God knows us
God knows who we are
God knows each step we have taken and each step we are going to take
Ps 139
God Knows us-
our weakness
our hurts
our passion
For some of us it is “Oh NO!!”
for others there is a reassurance
God Knows everything about you and still loves you
and demonstrated that love on the cross
ROma
What is the definition of that love?
it isn’t what we hear in music
it isn’t what we see on t.v.
for some it isn’t what we experience at home
The definition of love is in found in just four verses
Love is Patient-
to demonstrate patience despite difficulties—‘to be patient, to remain patient, to wait patiently
It is easy to show patient when people are acting the way we want them to
when everything is going just right
but true patience is shown in difficulties
in the midst of us constantly falling and getting up again
God is still patient
We all those friends-
we give them advice and yet they still make the same stupid mistakes over and over
Love is Kind-
to provide something beneficial for someone as an act of kindness
Think about all that God has provided for us
Eph 2:1-
The cross was for our benefit
Go so loved us He acted on our behalf and gave us something that we could never afford
Salvation and forgivness
He made us a New Creation through His act of Love on the cross
It does Envy or Boast-
resentment against someone—‘to be jealous,
2 Cor
Frenemies- “oh we love you” but then they stab you in the back
it is superficial love- it isn’t love
Arrogant-
(a figurative extension of meaning of φυσιόω ‘to puff up, to inflate,’ not occurring in the NT) to cause someone to be proud, arrogant, or haughty
They think higher of themselves then you-
often this leads to a what can I get from you and then push you to the side
It is a lording over thinking you know everything so your way is the best.
Rude-
to act in defiance of social and moral standards, with resulting disgrace, embarrassment, and shame
to act in defiance of social and moral standards, with resulting disgrace, embarrassment, and shame
it doesn’t shame us
Louw, J. P., & Nida, E. A. (1996).

love builds up
love encourages
Love is gracious
Love isn’t rude
Love doesn’t insist on it own way-
Consider others more significant
Jesus Show thins love
His Life- the people who he encountered
the value He gave
The Cross- Dying for those who where lost
Christ Cry in the garden- Even Christ Prayer
Our love for others should look like Christ
Mt
and our love for God should look like Christ
“Not my will but your be done”
“Glorify yourself through me”
“even in the hard times because nothing compares to you”
It isn’t Irritable-
to be provoked or upset at someone or something involving severe emotional concern
God’s love for us is patent Even in the midst of our wandering
God love is still calling out to people to “Come and receive Forgiveness”
It isn’t resentful-
to keep a mental record of events for the sake of some future action—‘to keep a record, to remember, to bear in mind.
It is the mental checklist of everything wrong they have done so one-day you can get the revenge you so deserve
it is looking for vindication through anger
Just as Christ forgave us
God has removed the wrong we have done
the sins
He didn’t count them against us
God doesn’t count our sins against us
1 Peter
Christ sacrificed for our sins- He took our place
Is 53:
It doesn’t rejoice in wrong doing-
it doesn’t rejoice when bad things happen to other
It doesn’t say “looks like they got what they deserved
God’s love isn’t like this- And thank God for that
What did we deserve for our actions?
What did we deserve for our sins?
But God’s love is Perfect-
Love rejoices with Truth
Christ Came because of God’s love for us
God’s love sacrifices for our benefit
