1 John 4:7-9 Elkland Bible Study
from Enemies on SermonAudio Hosted by Phil Seely
The sermon explores the distinction between natural affection and the supernatural love that originates from God, asserting that genuine love is the defining hallmark of those born of God. It emphasizes that this divine love is selfless and sacrificial, exemplified by Christ's death, and requires believers to love their enemies rather than seeking personal gain or comfort. The teaching contrasts the fleeting nature of carnal desire with the enduring nature of charity, which is the active expression of love. Furthermore, it explains that being in Christ grants believers an inheritance and freedom from the law of sin and death, positioning them as begotten sons who share in the eternal life of the Only Begotten Son. The message concludes by urging believers to recognize the manifestation of God's love through the Word and to live out this love through practical sacrifice and obedience.
