Love isn’t…Col 3:12-14 HOW do we put on love? #1: Serve one another: bear one another’s burdens. #2: Perform good works. #4: Adopt love’s qualities. #6: Never take your own revenge. Be at peace with others. #7: Edify one another by speaking the truth & singing. #4: Adopt love’s qualities. 1Co 13:4-8 Our job description includes putting on the qualities of love. Love is as much about the things we DON’T do as it is about the things that we ARE doing. Love is:
Love does these things:
Love does not:
Love is not:
It’s a matter of substituting the one for the other.
The way to stop rejoicing in unrighteousness is to start rejoicing in the truth. Gal 5:16 Rom 12:10-11 The cure for selfishness is to put other people’s needs before your own. Rom 12:15 Phi 2:3-4 Love is sacrificial.
#6: Never take your own revenge. Be at peace with others. Rom 12:17-21 You overcome evil with good. Eph 4:19
#7: Edify one another by speaking the truth & singing Biblical songs. Eph 4:11-16 Col 3:16 Biblical songs are based on Bible truths, All songs teach something.
