Love in Deed and Truth

Series: 1 John: Walking in the Light

Category: Gospel, Grace, Reconciliation

Speaker: Jeff Wyler

In this sermon, we explored the familiar command to love one another, contrasting it with Cain's example of hatred toward his brother Abel in Genesis 4. We examined the Apostle John's warning to believers in 1 John 3:13, which tells us to expect hatred from the world but emphasizes that genuine love among Christians is a true mark of faith. In this passage, John calls us to examine ourselves and practice forgiveness to prevent bitterness. Ultimately, love should be demonstrated through actions, not just words. As believers, we are called to reflect Christ's sacrificial love by meeting the needs of others and showing God's love.
