Summary:

Pastor Chris Oliveri continued with the second in a series of messages from III John depicting the characteristics of spiritual love.Â He reminded us that our speech should be honest and encouraging to others. He showed us how this combination can be accomplished when we become people who can actually see in a clearer way how the grace of God is at work in others lives. Another important lesson from this sermon was the universal mandate for Christians to demonstrate hospitality.

Primary Passage: 3 John 1:1-4

Theme: 7 Essentials of Genuine Love

Summary:

Pastor Chris Oliveri began a new series on the characteristics of spiritual love. He defined spiritual love as â€œsanctified affection expressed in sacrificial action.â€ FromÂ III John, he demonstrated that this kind of love is affectionate (not simply a duty), accurate (based on truth), and also deeply committed to prayer for others.Â Ultimately, what draws believers together is their love for the truth of the gospel. The Apostle Johnâ€™s letter was also challenging because he prayed that the physical health of its recipients would be an indicator their spiritual health.
