Good morning.
Well 4 days until Valentine’s day.
Men, this is your public service announcement.
Just be ready.
That’s all I am saying.
Did you all enjoy last weeks message about Demo day?
I had some more pop into my spirit about that so I will share a little bit about it today.
But it was so good.
Last weeks service was just amazing.
All 3 of them.
lol
I am expecting us to continue to build.
The momentum to never stop.
We are never meant to go backwards in our walk.
So we must go from last service and use that momentum to go to the next one.
To use the last glory as a launching pad not a landing one.
But let’s jump into this service.
This service is all about love.
Now don’t worry.
If you are single becuase this message is for you too.
In fact, I found this video that you need to watch if you are single.
It is the perfect app for you.

Now that really isn’t for any of you.
Do not settle.
Seek out who God has for you and then go for it.
Know the traits you want.
Write down who you want to be with.
Include every.
Make sure they have the spiritual qualities you want.
Then wait on God to bring him or her to you.
But truly this is all about love.
I want you to know whether you are single, married for 50 years we can all love better.
It is just like the foundation folks.
Your house ages, it settles and the foundation gets rocky.
Cracks appear.
Doors don’t shut.
Windows don’t open.
So you have to fix the cracks.
Solidify foundation.
Then the house works as it was designed.
Sometimes we have to make those adjustments in our relationships.
I want you to have healthy relationships.
We are going to start not where you normally would think in talking about love.
We are going to start in instead.
Let me give you a bit of context about this scripture.
Jesus has gathered all the ones that He loves to himself.
The 12.
He is about to go to the cross and He figures that he might as well leave them with some advice before he goes.
This is going to be the last things he says before his death.
If you haven’t really studied , , , , then you are really missing out.
It is some of the most powerful teaching of Jesus.
This is the summary of what Jesus has been teaching for the past 3 years.
So let’s start in
John 13:34
A new commandment I give to you.
Not necessarily new as we know new.
It has always been there.
It has always been the commandment.
But it wasn’t expressed this way.
We didn’t have the example like this.
This was always the underlying foundation of the commandments.
So this is a new commandment that I give to you.
That you love one another.
Now that word as you can assume is not the same kind of love that we say all the time.
I love pizza.
I love Wednesday’s weather.
Didn’t love the polar vortex cuz it brought no snow.
But it isn’t that kind of love.
It is the word that we all know and all have heard before.
In the Greek there are four words for love.
And this one is
Agape: Selfless, Sacrificial, Unconditional
But here is what we need to understand about Agape.
Jesus says love as I have loved you.
Jesus did not walk around with butterflies in his stomach.
Jesus didn’t have googley eyes when he looked at the disciples.
I think your beautiful and I feel really warm when I’m around you and my tongue swells.
That was buddy the elf not Jesus ok.
I just felt head over heels over you guys.
That is not how God does or describes love.
I am so thankful that God didn’t look at the disciples that way.
He didn’t feel that way.
Because Agape isn’t a feeling.
By the way you know that word is in the New Testament 147 times to describe God’s love for us.
It was never mentioned in any of those times a feeling or a thing.
It is an action.
The great philosopher John Mayer said it best that Love is a Verb.
It is in your notes this way.
Agape is not something you SAY or FEEL.
It is something you DO!
It is the doing of God.
God loved us so much that He gave.
Jesus loved us so much that He did.
Some of the most famous verse in scripture completely change when you think of love in this context.
Look at this.
John 15
Or this one
Or what about this one.
