Love—The Ethical Test of Divine Sonship
1 John 4:7–12
I.
The Exhortation (v.
7a)—“Beloved, let us love one another.”
II.
The Demonstration (vv.
7b, 8).
A. The presence of love in one’s life demonstrates that he knows God (v.
7b).
B. The failure of a person to exhibit love in his life demonstrates that he “knoweth not God” (v.
8).
III.
The Motivation—God’s Love (vv.
9, 10).
A. The visibleness of God’s love (v.
9).
B. The greatness of God’s love (v.
10).
The greatness of the divine love is indicated in at least four ways:
1.
It is seen in the greatness of the gift which love prompted God to bestow on us: “his only begotten Son” (v.
9).
2. The greatness of the divine love is seen in the purpose of the Son’s mission: “that we might live through him” (v.
9).
3. The greatness of God’s love is brought out by a consideration of the recipients of His love: “he loved us” (v.
10a).
4. The greatness of God’s love is seen in the propitiatory of Christ’s death.
God sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins (v.
10b).
IV.
Love Fulfills Two Functions (v.
12):
A. It is the visible evidence that God dwells in us (v.
12a; cf.
John 13:34, 35).
B. When we practice love, His (God’s) love is “perfected in us” (v.
12b).
V.
The Obligation (v.
11)
A. The character of the obligation (v.
11).
B. The claim of the obligation (v.
11).
15
Love and Its Perfection
1 John 4:17–21
I. Love’s Perfection in Relation to Self (vv.
17, 18).
A. It causes us to have boldness in the day of judgment (v.
17).
B. It casts out fear (v.
18).
II.
Love’s Perfection in Relation to Others (vv.
19–21).
A. The principle of love (v.
19).
B. The profession of love (v.
20).
C. The proof of love (v.
21).
16
The Reason and the Evidence for Brotherly Love
1 John 5:1–3
Our text is vitally related to the last two verses of the preceding chapter.
To our mind it presents two important aspects of love among Christian brethren:
I.
The Reason for the Obligation of Brotherly Love (v. 1).
The duty to love our Christian brethren is here based on our common relation to God.
The order of the apostle’s thought seems to be this:
A. The Christian brother is a true believer in Jesus the Christ.
“Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ” is included by John among the Christian fraternity.
B. Every true believer in Jesus the Christ is a child of God.
“Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is begotten of God” (ASV).
C. Every child of God should be loved by God’s children—“loveth him also that is begotten of him.”
II.
The Evidence for the Genuineness of Brotherly Love.
“By this we know that we love the children of God” (vv.
2, 3).
Two remarks, we think, will help us to understand John’s meaning:
A. Our love to the brethren is genuine when we love God.
B. Our love to God is genuine when we cheerfully keep His commandments.
