Midweek Worship 7th October 2020

Theme: That you should know

Today message: God’s love – 1 John 4:7-21

Welcome

Welcome to our midweek worship service. As we continue with our journey through 1 John, Simon moves into chapter 4 as he talks to us about God’s love. Now clearly everyone believes that love is important, but love is usually thought of as a feeling. In reality, love is a choice and an action. God is the source of our love; after all He loved us enough to sacrifice His Son for us. God’s love explains why He created people to love. God’s love explains why He cares even for sinful people. God’s love explains why He has given us to freedom to make choices – even choices that take people away from Him. God’s love explains why Jesus had to die in our place – and all God wants in return is for us to love Him.
