Part 1: Your Love Life

THE 5 LOVE LANGUAGES: TRANSLATING LOVE - PART 1

“Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.”

1 John 4:7-8 (NIV)

“This is how God showed His love among us: He sent His one and only Son into the world that we might live through Him.”

1 John 4:9 (NIV)

1. LOVE IS SOMETHING WE DO, NOT FEEL.

“Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.”

1 Corinthians 13:4-7 (ESV)

2. LOVE BEARS ALL THINGS: LOVE COVERS. 

 “(Love) bears all things...”

1 Corinthians 13:7a (ESV)

3. LOVE BELIEVES ALL THINGS: LOVE LOOKS FOR THE BEST. 

 “...(Love) believes all things…”

1 Corinthians 13:7b (ESV)

4. LOVE HOPES ALL THINGS: LOVE LOOKS FORWARD TO WHAT GOD CAN DO. 

 “...(Love) hopes all things…”              1 Corinthians 13:7c (ESV)

5. LOVE ENDURES ALL THINGS: LOVE DOESN’T GIVE UP. 

 “...(Love) endures all things...”

1 Corinthians 13:7d (ESV)
