"Beloved…Love…"

“Beloved...Love…”

Blessing Saints!

A new commandment - Love OneAnother.
The world we know we are Jesus’ disciples - by our love for OneAnother.

Let’s look further into 1 John 4

1 John 4:7-8

7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

The Lord, speaking through John, calls us to love OneAnother.

Did you see the “how and whys”?

True love is of God.
If we are born of God…
If we know God…
Then we love.
Especially OneAnother.

If we do not love?
Then we do not know God.
We may be religious.
We may be moral.
But, if we “loveth not”, then we are not born of God and we do not know God.

Why?
Because God is love.

If you love not, then examine yourself to see if you be of the faith.
