God's Kind of Love | Part 1

God Is Love

April 16, 2023 • Duane Sheriff • Ephesians 3:16–19, 1 John 3:1, 1 Corinthians 13:4–8, John 17:20–23

God's kind of love is not man's kind of love. God IS love, and love is OF God. Divine love surpasses our earthly understanding and cultural misconceptions held in our society. Duane Sheriff teaches that the truth of God's divine affection will transform our lives and strengthen our faith as he illustrates the difference between worldly attraction and genuine divine love utilizing the story of David's adulterous affair.

February 25, 2024 • Duane Sheriff • 1 Thessalonians 4:7–10, Titus 2:3–5, Ephesians 3:16–19, Matthew 7:12, Matthew 22:36–40

God is love. To truly love and understand love, you must be born again, born of God, and have a personal relationship with God. This message focuses on the significance of God's love, as written in Ephesians. Duane emphasizes the importance of the older generation teaching the younger generation to recognize and distinguish divine love from mere attraction or lust. It's crucial to understand that the world's definition of love differs from God's definition, and this understanding is essential to our faith because our faith works through love.

Today, we face a collapsing culture, and many immoral acts are justified under the guise of love. Duane Sheriff teaches that you have to know God's kind of love to love one another with God's kind of love. According to Paul in scripture, there are four dimensions to God's love, and we must not limit our understanding to just one aspect. God's love has length, width, depth, and height.

March 10, 2024 • Duane Sheriff • 1 John 3:1–3, 1 John 4:7–11, Romans 5:5, John 1:1–14, Ephesians 3:16–19

How wide, long, deep, and high is God's love? God's love is immeasurable, with four dimensions depicted not just as an emotion but also as a guiding principle for actions and relationships. It is rooted deeply in God's nature and manifested through Jesus' sacrifice on the cross. This sacrifice offers forgiveness and redemption to all humanity. Understanding and experiencing God's love transforms how we view ourselves and others, leading to a life of compassion, forgiveness, and self-sacrifice.
