This Is Us
John 13:34-35
Jesus is let down right before and right after He said this passage.
LOVE ONE ANOTHER!
Do you think people know christians by LOVE?
Let's be apart of the answer, not the problem.
This LOVE is...
1. Defined
"As I have loved you."
When you didn't earn it or deserve it.
He loves you relentlessly with a ridiculous grace!
Definitions matter.
If we don't have definition we have disfunction.
Look to Jesus to define this love!
2. Developed
John 13:34
Simon Peter says, "where are you going?"
It should be getting better, you should be full of more grace.
Are you getting better with age?
It would be criminal to allow Jesus to change your eternity but not change your testimony.
Are there underdeveloped areas of love in your life?
God will use you even in MID-DEVELOPMENT!
God can still use you even if you don't have it all together!
How many times have I been the christian who stays on shore when the jet skis have chased the sharks out of the area and others are getting back in the water?
There is some danger out there. There is some fear out there.
Jesus is on the jet ski helping us wade through the murky waters.
3. Dangerous
Dangerous when demonstrated.
Galatians 6:2-5
Each one should carry their own load.
One half says carry each other's burdens.
This is not a contradiction.
If you would help everyone out, you can carry your own burdens.
Say that's not us...
THIS is us.
GRACE! LOVE!
