Pastoral Team & Staff 信息笔记 SERMON NOTES

经文 Scripture: 1 John 2:3-17

Discussion Questions

1. The command to love is old and also new (v.7-8). Why is obedience so hard?

Why do believers have to keep being told to love God and others?

2. What kind of love did John intend for us to have? What kind of people are difficult for you to love?

How can you show love to them?

3. What loving actions have you seen in our church and put into practice in your life?

In what way can the church and you improve is showing love?

4. What areas of your life are affected when you love God and do his will instead of loving the world?

What can you do to keep God, not the enticements of the world, as the focus of your life?
