Series: Learning to Love
Message: The Real Deal
Text:
1 John 1:1-4 (PM 10/16/11)
LOVE
has to be the most overused and least understood word in the English
Language. How can we say we love
Ice Cream and then say
we love God? We look in all the
predictable places to develop definition. In our culture
there are the obvious places people gravitate towards
Hollywood, Romance Novels & now
Social Networks. The only place to find out about True
Love is from the original romance word - The Word of God. And the
only person who can truly teach us - God!
I.
An Invitation to Taste God
“You
have heard…seen…looked…handled”
II. An Invitation to Testify of God
“We
have seen and bear witness…”
III. An Invitation to Travel with God’s
“You
may have fellowship with us…”
IV.
An Invitation to Trust God
“That your joy may be full…”
Concl:
We’ve become a label conscious consumer in America...All food
packaged with the label for health. Love is packaged with many
labels in our culture. There is however, only one that is
The Real Deal…Jesus!
John has packaged His love so we can understand!
