Untitled Sermon (73)

THE BIRTH OF LOVE.

INTRODUCTION:

IN THE WORLD WE LIVE IN TODAY, THERE ARE MANY POLITICAL FIGURES WHO ARE TRYING TO FIND THE SOLUTIONS FOR THE CRIMES THAT ARE BEING COMMITTED AROUND THE WORLD.

MOST POLITICIANS BELIEVE IF THE SCHOOL SYSTEMS WAS BETTER, IT WOULD PRODUCE BETTER PEOPLE. SOME OF THEM BELIEVE IF THERE WHERE MORE JOBS CRIME WOULD GO DOWN.

BUT THE REALITY IS WITHOUT THE LOVE OF GOD FLOWING THROUGH YOUR HEART IT IMPOSSIBLE TO EXPECT CHANGE.

TODAY I LIKE TO TALK ABOUT, HOW LOVE WAS BIRTH?

THROUGH GOD.

THROUGH HIS SON.

THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT.

A. THROUGH GOD.

1 JOHN 4:7-8 “Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not, knoweth not God; for God is love.”

FOR US TO BEGIN TO UNDERSTAND THE BIRTH OF LOVE AND WHERE IT COME FROM WE ALL NEED TO BE REBORN AGAIN BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD, SO THAT WE CAN HAVE GOD’S SPIRIT WITHIN US.

JOHN CLEARLY STATES MORE THAN ONE TIME THAT GOD IS LOVE. MEANING THAT LOVE FLOWS FROM GOD, AND IT IS THE EXPRESSION OF HIS PERSONALITY.

THE WAY WE FIND OUT THAT GOD’S LOVE IS OPERATING IN US, IS HOW WE LOVE ONE ANOTHER.

1 JOHN 4:20-21 “If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen? And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.”

GOD’S LOVE WAS DEMONSTRATED THROUGH HIS SON CHRIST JESUS.

THE REAL PROBLEM IN THE WORLD TODAY IS LOVE, BECAUSE MANY PEOPLE WHO OF THE WORLD DO NOT HAVE REFERENCE FOR GOD OR HAVE A CLUE WHO GOD IS.

IF THE WORLD DON’T HAVE LOVE FOR GOD, HOW CAN THEY HAVE LOVE FOR THERE BROTHERS AND SISTERS.

THIS IS THE REASON WHY HIGH CRIME RATE AND POOR EDUCATION.

IT TAKES A HEART FILL WITH GOD’S LOVE TO HAVE COMPASSION FOR OTHER’S.

TO SUFFER TOGETHER.

YOU HAVE TO FEEL WHAT OTHERS FEEL TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY NEED.

HURTING PEOPLE NEED LOVE.

1 JOHN 3 10-11 “In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother. For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.”

B. THROUGH HIS SON JESUS.

1 JOHN 4:9-10 “In this was manifested the love of God towards us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.”

LOVE WAS BIRTH THROUGH JESUS AS A SACRIFICIAL LAMB OF GOD. AND THIS LOVE WAS AN EXPRESSION TOWARD SINNERS.

WE HAD NO CONNECTION WITH GOD WITHOUT JESUS IN OUR LIVES.

GOD HAD TO SEND HIS SON CHRIST JESUS TO RECONCILE US BACK TO HIM.

LOVE HAD EVERYTHING TO DO WITH KEEPING US FROM ETERNAL FIRE.

THE LOVE LIFE IS IN JESUS, THAT’S WHY MANY OF OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH OTHER’S DO NOT LAST, BECAUSE YOU’RE TRYING TO HOOK UP WITH PEOPLE WHO DO NOT HAVE THE LOVE OF CHRIST ABIDING IN THEM.

JOHN SAID WE DID NOT LOVE GOD. THE REASON IS, YOU HAVE TO RECEIVE HIS LOVE, BEFORE YOU CAN EXPERIENCE HIS LOVE.

THAT’S THE REASON WHY MANY OF US DO NOT KNOW HOW TO LOVE, BECAUSE SOMEWHERE IN OUR LIVES WE HAVE BEEN HURT AND CLOSED OUR HEARTS TO THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.

IT HAPPENS WHEN THERE IS A LACK OF TRUST.

YOU WOULD NOT KNOW WHAT LOVE IS OR HOW TO LOVE, IF THE LOVE OF CHRIST IS NOT FLOWING THROUGH YOUR HEART.

GOD DEMONSTRATED HIS LOVE TOWARDS US, THAT THROUGH HIS SON, WE MAY EXPERIENCE HIS MERCY, HIS GRACE, AND FORGIVENESS.

GOD DID NOT HAVE TO DO IT, HE COULD HAVE GIVING US WHAT WE DESERVE , BUT THE LOVE HE HAD FOR HIS SON COULD NOT ALLOW SIN TO HAVE THE VICTORY.

PROPITIATION IS THE TURNING AWAY OF GOD’S WRATH AGAINST US, FOR THE EXCHANGE OF GOD’S FAVOR UPON US.

ROMANS 5:8 “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”

C. THROUGH HOLY SPIRIT.

1 JOHN 4:13 “Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.”

GOD’S GIFT TO US WAS THE PRECIOUS HOLY SPIRIT THAT DWELLS IN US. THIS GIVES US THE ABILITY TO LOVE OTHER’S WHO DO NOT LOVE US. THIS TAKES MATURITY AND UNCONDITIONAL LOVE.

THE HOLY SPIRITS LOVE COVERS A SINNER, BUT NOT JUDGE HIM.

THE HOLY SPIRITS LOVE KEEPS YOU, TO KEEP YOU FROM FALLING, AND PROTECTS YOU FROM HURT HARM AND DANGER.

JOHN 14:26 “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.”
