I Have God’s Love
Don’t worry about me…
I have God’s Love, so I’m good!
I have God's Love, so I'm good!
Romans 12 – Overcome Evil With Good
“9 Don’t just pretend to love others. Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Hold tightly to what is good. 10 Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each other.
11 Never be lazy, but work hard and serve the Lord enthusiastically.
12 Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying. 13 When God’s people are in need, be ready to help them. Always be eager to practice hospitality.
14 Bless those who persecute you. Don’t curse them; pray that God will bless them.
15 Be happy with those who are happy, and weep with those who weep.
16 Live in harmony with each other. Don’t be too proud to enjoy the company of ordinary people. And don’t think you know it all!
17 Never pay back evil with more evil. Do things in such a way that everyone can see you are honorable.
18 Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone.
19 Dear friends, never take revenge. Leave that to the righteous anger of God. For the Scriptures say,
“I will take revenge;
I will pay them back,”
says the Lord.
20 Instead,
“If your enemies are hungry, feed them.
If they are thirsty, give them something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap
burning coals of shame on their heads.”
21 Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good.
Con: We should show kindness and love to those who would be our enemies.
Nim: So I'm supposed to be nice to cats!!!???
Nim: There's got to be a loophole.
Con: There are no loopholes in the Bible.
John 4 – God is Love
Abby thinks that her Pastor committed a grammatical error when he quoted John 4:7-8. “Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.”
Jerry: That's right.
Abby: But the word "Love" is a verb, like in "I love to dance." Saying someone is a verb doesn't make sense. Maybe I should start saying "Abby is dance."
Jerry: "Love" can also be a noun, like in "He has a lot of love." It's used like that.
Abby: Oh.
Abby: Can I still say "Abby is dance?"
Jesus Loves You
Con has an important message for all of you.
Proverbs 16:24 – Kind Words
When you speak to those you love, are your words kind? Everyone you know is going through something difficult today, so a kind word can show a lot of love.
Kind words are like honey – sweet to the soul and healthy for the body.
Proverbs 16:24
Nim: Yep, for about a week.
Con: Well, I can tell it's working.
Nim: REALLY??!!! I must look fantastic!!! I knew the diet was working, but I had no idea you'd see such a big difference in so short a time. Look at you, you can't keep your eyes off me! I must really be fabulous!
Con: A little compliment goes a long way with Nim.
Nim: Who's got a camera? Someone needs to get a picture of me...quick!
A small compliment to someone you love can go a long way.
Spreading The Love Of Jesus
Spreading the love of Jesus can sometimes take a backseat to other business of our lives. But always remember that your #1 business is spreading the Word.
Teacher, which is the most important commandment in the law of Moses? Jesus replied, ‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ The entire law and all the demands of the prophets are based on these two commandments.
Matthew 22:36-40
Con: That's great, Amos. Let me see one.
(Looks at card)
Con: I don't understand. All this says is "Jesus Loves You."
Amos: I know. Spreading the the love of Jesus is my business!
Spreading the love of Jesus is everyone's business!

God Is Love
God created love and God is the ultimate definition of love. If you don’t know God, how can you ever expect to give and receive love at the ultimate level?
Jerry: That's right.
Abby: But the word "love" is a verb, like in "I love to dance." Saying someone IS a verb doesn't make sense. Maybe I should start saying "Abby IS dance."
Jerry: Love can also be a noun, like in "He has a lot of love." It's used like that.
Abby: Oh.
Abby: Can I still say "Abby is dance?"
