Loving Jesus, Growing Together, Serving our World Part 1: Loving Jesus Matthew 22:37-39

Loving Jesus, Growing Together, Serving Our World

Jesus replied: “ ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ ” Matt. 22:37-39

What does it mean to love Jesus?

Loving Him with all your heart… You _________ to Him surrender

“Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God – this is your spiritual act of worship.” Romans 12:1

Loving Him with all your soul… You _______ Him worship

Worship is my response to who I value most. Who I value most is the Lord Jesus Christ. I was made by Him and for Him. He is awesome beyond my mind’s ability to comprehend. I exist for the purpose of reflecting back to the Lord His matchless glory. I will exalt Him with my mouth and with my life for He is my hope, my joy, my strength, and my salvation. This day will be used to know Him and love Him more!

“…when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says, “Let all God’s angels worship him.” Hebrews 1:6

Loving Him with all your mind… You _______ _____ Him humbly obey

“If you love me, you will obey what I command…Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me… He who does not love me will not obey my teaching.” John 14:15,21,24

Loving Him by loving others… You _____ ______ like He does value others

If anyone says, “I love God,” yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. I John 4:20
