God Loves Me

1. He Loves Us
1 John 4:10

2. Our Inadequacy
02/03/19
 God does not love us because we love Him. In fact, our love is filled with human
error, which makes our love flawed. However, God’s love is perfect.
 Real love started with God, and it will end with God. God is the source of all love,
the force of real love, and the course of any love.
 There is a rich comparison and contrast. John compares God’s love to our love.
 God’s love is real, our love is relative.
 His love is complete, and our love is partial.
 His love is eternal, and our love is temporal.
 His love is pure, and our love is tainted.
 His love continues when our love has stopped.
 His love succeeds where our love fails.
 His love is sufficient, and our love at best is inadequate.

3. God’s Divine Ability
02/03/19
 God is an able God. He is able to create something
from nothing.
 He is able to save, heal, deliver, strengthen, and
restore.
 God has the divine capacity and ability to love the
unlovable.

4. God’s Sufficiency
 Imagine for a moment that you are living on death row awaiting
your day to die.
 All of a sudden, the judge appears at your cell and says, “You are
free to go!”
 As you walk out with the judge, you notice another man walking
into your cell. You then ask the judge, “Who is that guy?”
 To which the judge replies, “He is the man that is going to take
your place. And he is not just any man. That man is my son!”
 Jesus Christ was our all-sufficient substitute that fateful day at the
cross.
