HE PROMISED LOVE

SCRIPTURE REFERENCES

1 Peter 4:7-10 NASB

7 The end of all things is near; therefore, be of sound judgment and sober spirit for the purpose of prayer. 8 Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins. 9 Be hospitable to one another without complaint. 10 As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

QUESTIONS

  1. Love lets us know what is coming so that we can prepare. How has God prepared us for what’s coming? Do you think about the end and how you want to run in light of that truth?
  2. Love focuses on things that last and matter eternally. What matters to you? Do your time and resources reflect what you say matters? What steps can you take to realign?
  3. What has it looked like to be fervent in love and cover a multitude of sins? Why do we tend to highlight other’s sins rather than cover them? What has this looked like in your marriage?
  4. Love shows hospitality and serves. Why are we quick to divide and devour, rather than to love our enemies, show hospitality, and serve them? What would repentance look like in this area?
