Necessity of Love | Love is Patient
In continuing with our sermon series through 1 Corinthians, Pastor Jay Jesuroga preached from 1 Corinthians 13:1-4, a message entitled “The Necessity of Love | Love is Patient“.
Love from 1 Corinthians 13:
- Biblical Love Is…
- Different than the world’s love
- Sourced in God (Gal. 5:22 | Rom. 5:5)
- By-product of regeneration (1 John 4:7-8)
- Dynamic, i.e. you can’t have enough love (Phil. 1:9 | 1 Thes. 4:9-10)
- The Necessity of Love (1 Cor. 13:1-3)
- Without it you are nothing and will profit nothing
- The Nature of Love (1 Cor. 13:4-7)
- All these aspects of love are exemplified in God’s redeeming work through Christ
- Love is patient
- (The rest to come in the following weeks)
