00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.320
 If you'd open up your Bibles to 1 John 2, we're going to be spending most of our time in verses 7 through 11.

00:00:07.320 --> 00:00:14.900
 But as you can see on your bulletin, we're going to dip into what Billy preached on verses 3 through 6 for a little bit at the beginning of the sermon.

00:00:15.099 --> 00:00:16.839
 But let me ask you this.

00:00:18.760 --> 00:00:25.600
 Right now, are you having a hard time loving another Christian?

00:00:25.600 --> 00:00:34.179
 You who are blood-bought, are you having a hard time loving another Christian who's been bought by the blood of Jesus?

00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:37.219
 Maybe there's another Christian who just rubs you raw.

00:00:39.020 --> 00:00:41.719
 You're loud, they're quiet, it drives them crazy.

00:00:43.620 --> 00:00:51.299
 Or maybe someone has repeatedly disappointed you and you have a hard time loving that other Christian.

00:00:51.299 --> 00:01:03.559
 Or maybe you've had ongoing disagreements about politics, about race, about theology, and you've now closed your heart to someone and are having a hard time loving them.

00:01:04.019 --> 00:01:07.120
 Or maybe someone other Christian has repeatedly sinned against you.

00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:10.340
 And it makes it difficult for you to love that person.

00:01:10.340 --> 00:01:17.680
 Essentially, you have closed your heart against another brother or sister in Christ.

00:01:17.820 --> 00:01:20.840
 And that opens the door to all sorts of other temptations.

00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:31.159
 Complaining, grumbling, gossip, slander, attacking, avoiding, withdrawing, accusing, being quick to judge,

00:01:32.520 --> 00:01:35.500
 and being very slow to believe the best.

00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:39.600
 So on the outset here, let me ask you this question.

00:01:40.340 --> 00:01:45.020
 Have you closed your heart against another brother or sister in Christ?

00:01:46.439 --> 00:01:51.480
 Is there someone that God is bringing to your mind right now?

00:01:53.100 --> 00:01:56.659
 The book of 1 John contains a series of three tests.

00:01:56.840 --> 00:02:00.460
 The first test is the belief test, the doctrine test.

00:02:00.580 --> 00:02:01.800
 What you believe about Jesus.

00:02:02.359 --> 00:02:03.340
 Fully God, fully man.

00:02:03.700 --> 00:02:06.060
 The second test is what Billy preached on last week.

00:02:06.060 --> 00:02:07.340
 The obedience test.

00:02:08.140 --> 00:02:10.620
 Obeying all of the commandments of Jesus.

00:02:10.840 --> 00:02:11.819
 All of His word.

00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:14.759
 And this morning, we're going to look at the love test.

00:02:16.520 --> 00:02:20.699
 That we love one another just as God in Christ has loved us.

00:02:21.979 --> 00:02:23.240
 So here's the test.

00:02:24.240 --> 00:02:27.340
 Have you closed your heart against another Christian?

00:02:27.340 --> 00:02:29.560
 Are you not loving them?

00:02:29.879 --> 00:02:32.800
 Or in the words of John, are you hating them?

00:02:35.300 --> 00:02:42.840
 Christian love is having an open heart towards one another to do good to one another at cost to ourselves,

00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:45.520
 even when someone doesn't deserve it.

00:02:45.520 --> 00:02:47.920
 So here's the big idea this morning.

00:02:48.820 --> 00:02:52.660
 At the top of your bulletin, we must love all who belong to Jesus.

00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:54.280
 That's what we're going to see in this text.

00:02:54.680 --> 00:02:56.379
 That's what I'm going to make a case for.

00:02:56.760 --> 00:03:00.900
 We must love all who belong to Jesus for reasons why.

00:03:01.439 --> 00:03:04.260
 We must love all who belong to Jesus.

00:03:04.400 --> 00:03:08.200
 And I'm going to bring them all out of, help you to see them out of 1 John 2.

00:03:08.199 --> 00:03:13.039
 The first reason, Jesus modeled the way we must love.

00:03:13.599 --> 00:03:16.299
 Jesus modeled the way we must love.

00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:20.719
 If you've got a pen in hand, you want to circle Jesus modeled love.

00:03:21.939 --> 00:03:23.299
 Jesus modeled this for us.

00:03:24.859 --> 00:03:30.379
 Last week, Billy showed us from verses 3 through 6 that those born of God will obey His commandments.

00:03:30.379 --> 00:03:40.879
 And this obedient test that we see in verses 3 through 6 is not just obedience to some of Jesus' commands.

00:03:41.599 --> 00:03:44.919
 It's obedience to all of Jesus' commandments.

00:03:45.139 --> 00:03:51.379
 And if you just look at verse 3 and 4, you will notice that John has commandments in mind.

00:03:51.460 --> 00:03:54.639
 Because there's a little S on the end of commandment.

00:03:55.379 --> 00:03:55.979
 Commandments.

00:03:56.840 --> 00:03:58.759
 We're to obey all of them.

00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:00.620
 We're to keep all of His word.

00:04:00.719 --> 00:04:01.419
 Verse 5.

00:04:03.019 --> 00:04:04.560
 In the Great Commission, Jesus says,

00:04:04.719 --> 00:04:08.840
 Go make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,

00:04:09.379 --> 00:04:14.539
 teaching them to observe, to keep, to obey all that I have commanded.

00:04:16.099 --> 00:04:20.399
 Those born of God have become disciples of Jesus Christ.

00:04:21.740 --> 00:04:25.439
 We are to follow Him in all that He commands, in all of His ways.

00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:27.519
 We are to walk as He walked.

00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:34.759
 Now, what happens in this passage is we move from verses 3 through 6 into 7 through 11.

00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:46.299
 And we move from this call to obey all of the commandments of Jesus to now narrowing in on one particular commandment of Jesus.

00:04:46.300 --> 00:04:53.540
 If you look at verses, verse 7, I'm writing no new commandment, but an old commandment.

00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:57.720
 The old commandment is the same word that you have heard.

00:04:58.020 --> 00:04:59.540
 At the same time, this is a new commandment.

00:05:00.420 --> 00:05:06.439
 So, John moves from having all of Jesus' commands to now having one particular command.

00:05:06.439 --> 00:05:09.779
 And it's a whole new love test.

00:05:10.180 --> 00:05:11.100
 It's a test of love.

00:05:11.899 --> 00:05:18.379
 We move from the obedience test to now another kind of obedience, loving one another.

00:05:18.779 --> 00:05:21.579
 And what John has in mind here is John 13, 34.

00:05:22.060 --> 00:05:24.220
 Jesus has just washed the feet of His disciples.

00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:25.620
 He says,

00:05:25.620 --> 00:05:35.399
 What we see happening in John 13 is this.

00:05:35.519 --> 00:05:41.740
 Jesus models to His disciples what humble, loving service looks like.

00:05:42.100 --> 00:05:44.680
 And then He says to them in John 13, 34, and 35,

00:05:44.680 --> 00:05:46.680
 Hey, follow my lead.

00:05:47.379 --> 00:05:48.420
 Love as I love.

00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:53.540
 Which is interesting because in verses 5 and 6 of chapter 2,

00:05:54.639 --> 00:05:55.160
 we read,

00:05:55.400 --> 00:05:59.139
 Whoever keeps His word in Him, truly the love of God is perfected.

00:05:59.840 --> 00:06:01.620
 By this we may know that we are in Him.

00:06:01.780 --> 00:06:04.139
 Whoever says He abides in Him, in Jesus,

00:06:04.759 --> 00:06:07.480
 ought to walk in the same way in which He walked.

00:06:07.480 --> 00:06:14.280
 In other words, we are to love in the same way that He loved.

00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:20.120
 Jesus modeled this love for us in humble service, humble loving service.

00:06:20.319 --> 00:06:25.400
 But the ultimate place that Jesus demonstrated this love is, of course, on the cross.

00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:32.399
 Where He sacrificially gave Himself for the good of us, even when we didn't deserve it.

00:06:34.540 --> 00:06:42.519
 Christian love is a sacrificial commitment to do good to others, even when they don't deserve it.

00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:46.019
 That's what Jesus modeled.

00:06:47.259 --> 00:06:48.159
 Jesus modeled.

00:06:48.319 --> 00:06:52.219
 He didn't model this closed-hearted against you.

00:06:52.479 --> 00:06:55.639
 He modeled open-hearted for you.

00:06:56.699 --> 00:06:58.699
 So let's just apply this quickly.

00:06:59.299 --> 00:07:00.159
 First is this.

00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:04.439
 I just want you to see coming out of verses 3 through 6,

00:07:04.860 --> 00:07:09.740
 that loving one another is part of obeying all that Jesus commands,

00:07:10.740 --> 00:07:12.440
 and it's a matter of discipleship.

00:07:13.040 --> 00:07:14.960
 This is about following Jesus.

00:07:16.020 --> 00:07:19.620
 This is about being like our Savior and our Lord.

00:07:19.620 --> 00:07:23.160
 The second point of application is this.

00:07:23.259 --> 00:07:23.740
 It's a question.

00:07:25.160 --> 00:07:29.939
 Who are you looking to as a model of loving others?

00:07:31.379 --> 00:07:33.560
 When you think about, I need to love other people,

00:07:33.959 --> 00:07:35.319
 who are you looking to as your model?

00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:38.199
 Maybe you're not even asking the question.

00:07:39.199 --> 00:07:40.620
 So start asking the question.

00:07:40.620 --> 00:07:47.680
 But look to Jesus to see how He loved others.

00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:51.340
 His way is the way we must walk.

00:07:52.780 --> 00:07:56.459
 Jesus modeled the way we must love.

00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:01.540
 That's why we must love all who belong to Jesus.

00:08:01.540 --> 00:08:08.160
 The second reason why we must love all who belong to Jesus

00:08:08.160 --> 00:08:12.860
 is that we are the beloved of Jesus ourselves.

00:08:13.180 --> 00:08:14.920
 Would you circle that word beloved,

00:08:15.560 --> 00:08:18.300
 and then right next to it, write,

00:08:18.939 --> 00:08:20.620
 me, question mark.

00:08:22.860 --> 00:08:24.980
 Are you the beloved of God?

00:08:27.820 --> 00:08:31.360
 There's no question in chapter 2, verse 7,

00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:33.259
 when John writes,

00:08:33.519 --> 00:08:36.080
 Beloved, I'm writing you no new commandment,

00:08:36.259 --> 00:08:37.120
 but an old commandment.

00:08:37.340 --> 00:08:37.779
 Beloved.

00:08:38.580 --> 00:08:42.360
 There's no question that this frequent term of endearment

00:08:42.360 --> 00:08:45.440
 is John's pastoral affection

00:08:45.440 --> 00:08:48.279
 for these churches in the first century,

00:08:48.779 --> 00:08:49.740
 western Turkey.

00:08:49.980 --> 00:08:50.580
 No question.

00:08:50.580 --> 00:08:52.919
 He loves these Christians.

00:08:54.800 --> 00:08:58.580
 If anything, it shows his heart is open to them.

00:08:58.580 --> 00:09:01.500
 He wants good for them.

00:09:02.800 --> 00:09:05.080
 But the question I want to ask is,

00:09:05.540 --> 00:09:08.520
 why does John love them so much?

00:09:11.400 --> 00:09:13.940
 Because John knows that there is someone

00:09:13.940 --> 00:09:15.860
 who loves them more than him.

00:09:18.020 --> 00:09:21.240
 That they're not only the beloved of John,

00:09:21.240 --> 00:09:24.580
 they're the beloved of Jesus.

00:09:26.580 --> 00:09:28.759
 Jesus loves them.

00:09:31.080 --> 00:09:32.220
 Brothers and sisters,

00:09:33.980 --> 00:09:36.799
 our great triune God

00:09:36.799 --> 00:09:40.940
 sought us from before the foundation of the world

00:09:40.940 --> 00:09:44.120
 out of love.

00:09:44.120 --> 00:09:49.820
 He loves us with all that he is.

00:09:49.820 --> 00:09:51.679
 All that God is,

00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:53.960
 he is for you,

00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:55.120
 brothers and sisters.

00:09:55.980 --> 00:09:57.799
 The three persons of the Trinity

00:09:57.799 --> 00:10:01.440
 all work in concert with one another

00:10:01.440 --> 00:10:03.820
 with an open heart

00:10:03.820 --> 00:10:05.720
 for your good.

00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:05.759
 Lord,

00:10:06.639 --> 00:10:09.560
 you are the object

00:10:09.560 --> 00:10:11.279
 of the triune God's

00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:12.240
 open-hearted,

00:10:12.560 --> 00:10:13.700
 unceasing love,

00:10:14.040 --> 00:10:14.379
 beloved.

00:10:17.960 --> 00:10:19.759
 I want to press this in a little bit.

00:10:19.879 --> 00:10:21.920
 I want to help you

00:10:21.920 --> 00:10:22.620
 sink,

00:10:23.180 --> 00:10:23.899
 this sink in.

00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:25.580
 I want you to soak in this

00:10:25.580 --> 00:10:26.139
 for a little bit

00:10:26.139 --> 00:10:26.500
 because

00:10:26.500 --> 00:10:28.480
 many of you

00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:30.180
 have a hard time believing

00:10:30.180 --> 00:10:31.519
 that God loves you.

00:10:32.500 --> 00:10:33.680
 Many of you think

00:10:33.679 --> 00:10:35.739
 God doesn't care about you.

00:10:36.939 --> 00:10:38.299
 He doesn't see you.

00:10:39.120 --> 00:10:40.000
 Many of you think

00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:41.439
 that you need to walk

00:10:41.439 --> 00:10:42.839
 in eggshells

00:10:42.839 --> 00:10:44.059
 around your Holy Father.

00:10:44.899 --> 00:10:46.079
 Both couldn't be further

00:10:46.079 --> 00:10:46.779
 from the truth.

00:10:48.659 --> 00:10:49.779
 You know when God started

00:10:49.779 --> 00:10:50.339
 to love you?

00:10:52.559 --> 00:10:53.919
 God started to love you

00:10:53.919 --> 00:10:54.799
 before the foundation

00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:55.479
 of the world.

00:10:56.620 --> 00:10:58.139
 He set his love on you

00:10:58.139 --> 00:10:59.219
 way back then.

00:11:00.399 --> 00:11:01.379
 His love for you

00:11:01.379 --> 00:11:02.219
 didn't start

00:11:02.219 --> 00:11:03.339
 the moment

00:11:03.340 --> 00:11:04.540
 you heard the gospel

00:11:04.540 --> 00:11:05.440
 for the first time.

00:11:06.639 --> 00:11:07.800
 His love for you

00:11:07.800 --> 00:11:09.080
 goes way back.

00:11:11.019 --> 00:11:11.740
 And the

00:11:11.740 --> 00:11:14.139
 extent of his love

00:11:14.139 --> 00:11:14.980
 for you

00:11:14.980 --> 00:11:16.220
 that he would send

00:11:16.220 --> 00:11:16.980
 his only son

00:11:16.980 --> 00:11:18.660
 to die in your place

00:11:18.660 --> 00:11:19.560
 so that you could

00:11:19.560 --> 00:11:20.660
 take your place

00:11:20.660 --> 00:11:21.580
 in his family

00:11:21.580 --> 00:11:24.379
 as a beloved son

00:11:24.379 --> 00:11:24.860
 or daughter

00:11:24.860 --> 00:11:26.740
 in love

00:11:26.740 --> 00:11:28.379
 he predestined us

00:11:28.379 --> 00:11:30.200
 for adoption.

00:11:31.700 --> 00:11:32.480
 Beloved sons

00:11:32.480 --> 00:11:33.080
 and daughters.

00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:36.100
 How does God

00:11:36.100 --> 00:11:36.639
 love you?

00:11:38.740 --> 00:11:39.659
 He loves you

00:11:39.659 --> 00:11:40.320
 non-stop.

00:11:42.379 --> 00:11:43.500
 This past week

00:11:43.500 --> 00:11:44.420
 when you were

00:11:44.420 --> 00:11:45.399
 at your best

00:11:45.399 --> 00:11:46.840
 and you're like

00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:47.820
 I'm crushing it

00:11:47.820 --> 00:11:48.539
 as a Christian

00:11:48.539 --> 00:11:51.220
 God wasn't

00:11:51.220 --> 00:11:52.480
 all that impressed

00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:55.220
 but he loved you

00:11:55.220 --> 00:11:55.659
 still.

00:11:57.940 --> 00:11:59.180
 His love for you

00:11:59.179 --> 00:11:59.939
 isn't dependent

00:11:59.939 --> 00:12:00.979
 on your obedience.

00:12:02.979 --> 00:12:04.039
 He loves you

00:12:04.039 --> 00:12:05.099
 with a fierce love

00:12:05.099 --> 00:12:05.899
 for your good.

00:12:05.979 --> 00:12:06.339
 You know what your

00:12:06.339 --> 00:12:07.120
 greatest good is?

00:12:07.299 --> 00:12:07.659
 God.

00:12:08.079 --> 00:12:08.699
 He loves you

00:12:08.699 --> 00:12:09.559
 unto himself.

00:12:12.519 --> 00:12:13.639
 But this past week

00:12:13.639 --> 00:12:14.000
 when you were

00:12:14.000 --> 00:12:14.739
 at your worst

00:12:14.739 --> 00:12:18.939
 when you were

00:12:18.939 --> 00:12:19.419
 in the depths

00:12:19.419 --> 00:12:20.139
 of your shame

00:12:20.139 --> 00:12:23.219
 when you were

00:12:23.219 --> 00:12:24.639
 taken over

00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:25.379
 by fear

00:12:25.379 --> 00:12:28.220
 when you just

00:12:28.220 --> 00:12:29.139
 committed that sin

00:12:29.139 --> 00:12:29.879
 again

00:12:29.879 --> 00:12:32.659
 when you were

00:12:32.659 --> 00:12:33.419
 living in the

00:12:33.419 --> 00:12:34.500
 soft denial

00:12:34.500 --> 00:12:35.759
 of God's existence

00:12:35.759 --> 00:12:37.000
 because you're

00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:37.779
 just consumed

00:12:37.779 --> 00:12:38.600
 with yourself

00:12:38.600 --> 00:12:41.340
 God never

00:12:41.340 --> 00:12:43.200
 stopped loving you.

00:12:45.820 --> 00:12:46.539
 Yes

00:12:46.539 --> 00:12:47.799
 your sin

00:12:47.799 --> 00:12:48.840
 still grieves

00:12:48.840 --> 00:12:49.059
 him

00:12:49.059 --> 00:12:51.779
 and yes

00:12:51.779 --> 00:12:52.779
 he loves you

00:12:52.779 --> 00:12:53.200
 still.

00:12:53.200 --> 00:12:56.820
 he will never

00:12:56.820 --> 00:12:57.420
 abandon you

00:12:57.420 --> 00:12:58.020
 brother or sister

00:12:58.020 --> 00:12:58.540
 in Christ.

00:12:59.860 --> 00:13:00.560
 He doesn't

00:13:00.560 --> 00:13:01.180
 turn his love

00:13:01.180 --> 00:13:01.480
 for you

00:13:01.480 --> 00:13:02.080
 on and off.

00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:04.500
 He loves you

00:13:04.500 --> 00:13:05.820
 incessantly.

00:13:07.580 --> 00:13:08.520
 So brother or

00:13:08.520 --> 00:13:09.259
 sister beloved

00:13:09.259 --> 00:13:09.860
 of God

00:13:09.860 --> 00:13:10.700
 if you are

00:13:10.700 --> 00:13:11.379
 a genuine

00:13:11.379 --> 00:13:12.879
 believer in

00:13:12.879 --> 00:13:13.320
 Christ

00:13:13.320 --> 00:13:14.640
 you cannot

00:13:14.640 --> 00:13:15.980

00:13:15.980 --> 00:13:16.840
 God's

00:13:16.840 --> 00:13:17.580
 outrageous

00:13:17.580 --> 00:13:18.320
 love.

00:13:20.120 --> 00:13:20.860
 You can't

00:13:20.860 --> 00:13:21.160

00:13:21.160 --> 00:13:21.320
 it.

00:13:21.320 --> 00:13:24.320
 you can't

00:13:24.320 --> 00:13:29.320
 check this

00:13:29.320 --> 00:13:29.560
 out.

00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:32.360
 Do you

00:13:36.660 --> 00:13:37.020
 you have.

 The Holy

 regularly

00:13:42.760 --> 00:13:45.220
 that you

00:13:45.220 --> 00:13:46.200
 are a

00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:46.560

00:13:50.159 --> 00:13:51.120
 In fact

00:13:51.120 --> 00:13:52.360
 at the

00:13:52.360 --> 00:13:52.559
 end of

 Ephesians

00:14:22.560 --> 00:14:23.360
 It's a

 Holy Spirit

00:14:28.640 --> 00:14:29.120

00:14:29.120 --> 00:14:29.640
 to convince

 Your son

00:14:38.500 --> 00:14:39.160
 Here's why

00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:39.759
 this matters.

00:14:41.860 --> 00:14:42.620
 When you

00:14:42.620 --> 00:14:44.419
 are personally

00:14:44.419 --> 00:14:47.459

 you realize the

00:14:56.699 --> 00:14:57.339
 greatness of

00:14:57.339 --> 00:14:58.079
 God's open

00:14:58.079 --> 00:14:58.719

00:14:58.719 --> 00:14:59.259
 for you and

00:14:59.259 --> 00:14:59.559
 you didn't

00:14:59.559 --> 00:15:00.379
 deserve it,

00:15:01.740 --> 00:15:02.879
 how can you

00:15:02.879 --> 00:15:03.459
 keep your

00:15:03.459 --> 00:15:04.240
 heart closed

00:15:04.240 --> 00:15:04.939
 against another

00:15:04.939 --> 00:15:05.379
 Christian?

00:15:05.379 --> 00:15:08.939
 If you

00:15:08.939 --> 00:15:09.779
 see and

00:15:09.779 --> 00:15:10.799
 experience God's

00:15:10.799 --> 00:15:11.340

00:15:11.340 --> 00:15:12.480
 for you, how

00:15:12.480 --> 00:15:13.120
 can you hate

00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:14.039
 somebody else

00:15:14.039 --> 00:15:14.960
 that he

00:15:14.960 --> 00:15:15.340
 loves?

00:15:18.879 --> 00:15:19.939
 1 John 4

00:15:19.939 --> 00:15:20.700
 19 says,

00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:21.399
 we love

00:15:21.399 --> 00:15:21.960
 because he

00:15:21.960 --> 00:15:22.919
 first loves

00:15:22.919 --> 00:15:23.500
 us.

00:15:24.980 --> 00:15:25.899
 Is God

00:15:25.899 --> 00:15:26.320
 bringing

00:15:26.320 --> 00:15:27.120
 someone to

00:15:27.120 --> 00:15:27.860
 your mind?

00:15:30.279 --> 00:15:31.259
 The cure

00:15:31.259 --> 00:15:31.860
 for a

00:15:31.860 --> 00:15:32.820
 Christian's

00:15:32.820 --> 00:15:33.500

00:15:33.500 --> 00:15:34.340
 hearted

00:15:34.340 --> 00:15:34.860
 hatred

00:15:34.860 --> 00:15:36.759
 is God's

00:15:36.759 --> 00:15:37.740
 open

00:15:37.740 --> 00:15:38.779

 for you

00:15:40.740 --> 00:15:42.180
 in Christ.

00:15:44.659 --> 00:15:45.620
 We must

00:15:45.620 --> 00:15:46.240
 love those

00:15:46.240 --> 00:15:46.680
 who belong

00:15:46.680 --> 00:15:47.399
 to Jesus

00:15:47.399 --> 00:15:50.279
 because we

00:15:50.279 --> 00:15:51.340
 are the

00:15:51.340 --> 00:15:51.800
 beloved

00:15:51.800 --> 00:15:52.879
 of Jesus.

00:15:55.300 --> 00:15:55.919
 Reason

00:15:55.919 --> 00:15:56.300
 three,

00:15:58.860 --> 00:15:59.320
 Jesus

00:15:59.320 --> 00:16:00.000
 is

00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:00.920
 commanding

00:16:00.920 --> 00:16:01.480
 us

00:16:01.480 --> 00:16:02.659
 to love

00:16:02.659 --> 00:16:04.600
 now.

00:16:04.860 --> 00:16:06.500
 circle

00:16:06.500 --> 00:16:06.960
 that word

00:16:06.960 --> 00:16:07.899
 commanding

00:16:07.899 --> 00:16:09.860
 and now.

00:16:12.379 --> 00:16:12.899
 Remember

00:16:18.940 --> 00:16:19.879
 commandments

00:16:23.879 --> 00:16:24.460
 the focus

00:16:24.460 --> 00:16:24.940
 narrows

00:16:24.940 --> 00:16:25.259
 from

00:16:25.259 --> 00:16:26.080
 commandments

00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:26.720
 in general

00:16:26.720 --> 00:16:27.080
 to a

00:16:27.080 --> 00:16:27.620
 commandment

00:16:27.620 --> 00:16:27.879
 in

00:16:27.879 --> 00:16:28.519
 particular

00:16:28.519 --> 00:16:29.980
 and the

00:16:29.980 --> 00:16:30.439
 commandment

00:16:30.439 --> 00:16:30.759
 that I'm

00:16:30.759 --> 00:16:31.079
 trying to

00:16:31.079 --> 00:16:31.779
 argue for

00:16:31.779 --> 00:16:32.639
 that John

00:16:32.639 --> 00:16:33.079
 has in

00:16:33.079 --> 00:16:33.460
 mind

00:16:33.460 --> 00:16:34.199
 is this

00:16:34.199 --> 00:16:34.659
 command

00:16:34.659 --> 00:16:35.139
 Jesus

00:16:35.139 --> 00:16:35.659
 saying

00:16:35.659 --> 00:16:37.159
 I give

00:16:37.159 --> 00:16:37.419
 you a

00:16:37.419 --> 00:16:37.579
 new

00:16:37.579 --> 00:16:38.100
 commandment

00:16:38.100 --> 00:16:40.100
 that you

00:16:40.100 --> 00:16:40.519
 love one

00:16:40.519 --> 00:16:40.779
 another

00:16:40.779 --> 00:16:41.460
 just as I

00:16:41.460 --> 00:16:41.919
 have loved

00:16:41.919 --> 00:16:42.100
 you

00:16:42.100 --> 00:16:42.639
 you love

00:16:42.639 --> 00:16:42.860
 one

00:16:42.860 --> 00:16:43.199
 another

00:16:43.199 --> 00:16:44.879
 but here's

00:16:44.879 --> 00:16:45.100
 what's

00:16:45.100 --> 00:16:45.519
 interesting

00:16:45.519 --> 00:16:46.539
 in verse

00:16:46.539 --> 00:16:47.079
 seven

00:16:47.079 --> 00:16:48.799
 John

00:16:48.799 --> 00:16:49.259
 says I'm

00:16:49.259 --> 00:16:49.759
 writing you

00:16:49.759 --> 00:16:50.340
 no new

00:16:50.340 --> 00:16:50.860
 commandment

00:16:50.860 --> 00:16:51.480
 but an

00:16:51.480 --> 00:16:51.659
 old

00:16:51.659 --> 00:16:52.120
 commandment

00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:52.519
 that you

00:16:52.519 --> 00:16:53.079
 had from

00:16:53.079 --> 00:16:53.519
 the beginning

00:16:53.519 --> 00:16:54.059
 the old

00:16:54.059 --> 00:16:54.500
 commandment

00:16:54.500 --> 00:16:55.139
 is the word

00:16:55.139 --> 00:16:55.480
 that you

00:16:55.480 --> 00:16:55.980
 have heard

00:16:55.980 --> 00:16:56.679
 old

00:16:56.679 --> 00:16:57.059
 commandment

00:16:57.059 --> 00:16:57.319
 what are you

00:16:57.319 --> 00:16:57.759
 talking about

00:16:57.759 --> 00:16:58.099
 I thought

00:16:58.099 --> 00:16:58.439
 this is

00:16:58.439 --> 00:16:58.719
 the new

00:16:58.719 --> 00:16:59.179
 commandment

00:16:59.179 --> 00:17:00.219
 what's

00:17:00.219 --> 00:17:00.839
 going on

00:17:00.839 --> 00:17:01.979
 well as

00:17:01.979 --> 00:17:02.839
 often in

00:17:02.839 --> 00:17:03.339
 the case

00:17:03.339 --> 00:17:03.899
 of your

00:17:03.899 --> 00:17:04.240
 bible

00:17:04.240 --> 00:17:05.019
 what you

00:17:05.019 --> 00:17:05.259
 need to

00:17:05.259 --> 00:17:05.519
 do when

00:17:05.519 --> 00:17:05.720
 you have

00:17:05.720 --> 00:17:06.200
 a question

00:17:06.200 --> 00:17:07.039
 about one

00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:07.720
 sentence

00:17:07.720 --> 00:17:08.139
 or one

00:17:08.139 --> 00:17:08.440
 statement

00:17:08.440 --> 00:17:08.980
 you look

00:17:08.980 --> 00:17:10.500
 right around

00:17:10.500 --> 00:17:11.000
 to see if

00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:11.279
 there's an

00:17:11.279 --> 00:17:11.720
 explanation

00:17:11.720 --> 00:17:12.819
 so if you

00:17:12.819 --> 00:17:13.139
 turn to

00:17:13.139 --> 00:17:13.539
 first

00:17:13.539 --> 00:17:13.980
 John

00:17:13.980 --> 00:17:14.519
 three

00:17:14.519 --> 00:17:15.079
 eleven

00:17:15.079 --> 00:17:17.500
 here's

00:17:17.500 --> 00:17:17.779
 what we

00:17:17.779 --> 00:17:18.079
 read

00:17:18.079 --> 00:17:19.319
 for this

00:17:19.319 --> 00:17:19.599
 is the

00:17:19.599 --> 00:17:20.139
 message that

00:17:20.139 --> 00:17:20.440
 you have

00:17:20.440 --> 00:17:21.079
 heard from

00:17:21.079 --> 00:17:21.579
 the beginning

00:17:21.579 --> 00:17:23.899
 that we

00:17:23.899 --> 00:17:24.339
 should love

00:17:24.339 --> 00:17:24.879
 one another

00:17:24.880 --> 00:17:27.780
 a new

00:17:27.780 --> 00:17:28.240
 commandment

00:17:28.240 --> 00:17:28.600
 I give

00:17:28.600 --> 00:17:29.020
 to you

00:17:29.020 --> 00:17:29.500
 that you

00:17:29.500 --> 00:17:30.280
 love

00:17:30.280 --> 00:17:30.980
 one another

00:17:30.980 --> 00:17:31.280
 what

00:17:31.280 --> 00:17:32.020
 John is

00:17:32.020 --> 00:17:32.540
 saying is

00:17:32.540 --> 00:17:32.900
 that the

00:17:32.900 --> 00:17:33.080
 new

00:17:33.080 --> 00:17:33.660
 commandment

00:17:33.660 --> 00:17:33.940
 Jesus

00:17:33.940 --> 00:17:34.340
 gave

00:17:34.340 --> 00:17:34.720
 back

00:17:34.720 --> 00:17:35.140
 way back

00:17:35.140 --> 00:17:35.400
 then

00:17:35.400 --> 00:17:36.260
 is now

00:17:36.260 --> 00:17:36.880
 an old

00:17:36.880 --> 00:17:37.460
 commandment

00:17:37.460 --> 00:17:37.980
 to these

00:17:37.980 --> 00:17:38.420
 Christians

00:17:38.420 --> 00:17:40.160
 they heard

00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:40.400
 it from

00:17:40.400 --> 00:17:40.880
 the beginning

00:17:40.880 --> 00:17:41.620
 not in

00:17:41.620 --> 00:17:42.120
 the beginning

00:17:42.120 --> 00:17:42.600
 Genesis

00:17:42.600 --> 00:17:42.920
 1

00:17:42.920 --> 00:17:43.180
 1

00:17:43.180 --> 00:17:43.900
 but the

00:17:43.900 --> 00:17:44.360
 beginning

00:17:44.360 --> 00:17:45.200
 of their

00:17:45.200 --> 00:17:45.680
 journey

00:17:45.680 --> 00:17:46.080
 with

00:17:46.080 --> 00:17:46.440
 Jesus

00:17:46.440 --> 00:17:47.640
 when they

00:17:47.640 --> 00:17:48.080
 first

00:17:48.080 --> 00:17:48.620
 heard

00:17:48.620 --> 00:17:49.220
 about

00:17:49.220 --> 00:17:49.720
 God's

00:17:49.720 --> 00:17:50.000
 great

00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:50.320
 love

00:17:50.320 --> 00:17:50.700
 for them

00:17:50.700 --> 00:17:51.060
 in

00:17:51.060 --> 00:17:51.520
 Christ

00:17:51.520 --> 00:17:52.000
 who

00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:52.920
 sacrificially

00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:53.260
 gave

00:17:53.260 --> 00:17:53.580
 himself

00:17:53.580 --> 00:17:54.080
 to them

00:17:54.079 --> 00:17:54.319
 when they

00:17:54.319 --> 00:17:54.480
 didn't

00:17:54.480 --> 00:17:54.819
 deserve

00:17:54.819 --> 00:17:55.519
 it

00:17:55.519 --> 00:17:55.980
 when

00:17:55.980 --> 00:17:56.819
 that

00:17:56.819 --> 00:17:57.460
 began

00:17:57.460 --> 00:17:58.079
 and then

00:17:58.079 --> 00:17:58.259
 they

00:17:58.259 --> 00:17:58.480
 were

00:17:58.480 --> 00:17:59.039
 awakened

00:17:59.039 --> 00:17:59.899
 and realized

00:17:59.899 --> 00:18:00.639
 their sin

00:18:00.639 --> 00:18:02.319
 they were

00:18:02.319 --> 00:18:03.299
 also taught

00:18:03.299 --> 00:18:04.659
 that they

00:18:04.659 --> 00:18:04.939
 were to

00:18:04.939 --> 00:18:05.399
 love one

00:18:05.399 --> 00:18:05.720
 another

00:18:05.720 --> 00:18:08.099
 so what

00:18:08.099 --> 00:18:08.460
 John is

00:18:08.460 --> 00:18:08.879
 saying here

00:18:08.879 --> 00:18:09.179
 is this

00:18:09.179 --> 00:18:09.480
 old

00:18:09.480 --> 00:18:10.019
 commandment

00:18:10.019 --> 00:18:10.779
 stuff

00:18:10.779 --> 00:18:11.059
 nothing

00:18:11.059 --> 00:18:11.439
 new

00:18:11.439 --> 00:18:12.259
 it's like

00:18:12.259 --> 00:18:12.619
 he's saying

00:18:12.619 --> 00:18:12.919
 I'm not

00:18:12.919 --> 00:18:13.199
 writing

00:18:13.199 --> 00:18:13.539
 anything

00:18:13.539 --> 00:18:14.279
 you don't

00:18:14.279 --> 00:18:14.539
 already

00:18:14.539 --> 00:18:14.879
 know

00:18:14.879 --> 00:18:15.619
 this is

00:18:15.619 --> 00:18:15.839
 not

00:18:15.839 --> 00:18:16.299
 novel

00:18:16.299 --> 00:18:17.000
 this is

00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:17.159
 not

00:18:17.159 --> 00:18:17.500
 some

00:18:17.500 --> 00:18:17.980
 fresh

00:18:17.980 --> 00:18:18.480
 take

00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:18.799
 on

00:18:18.799 --> 00:18:19.240
 something

00:18:19.240 --> 00:18:21.500
 rather

00:18:21.500 --> 00:18:21.919
 this is

00:18:21.919 --> 00:18:22.500
 basic

00:18:22.500 --> 00:18:23.559
 following

00:18:23.559 --> 00:18:23.799
 of

00:18:23.799 --> 00:18:24.240
 Jesus

00:18:24.240 --> 00:18:25.839
 discipleship

00:18:25.839 --> 00:18:26.339
 101

00:18:26.339 --> 00:18:29.339
 you know

00:18:29.339 --> 00:18:29.700
 this

00:18:29.700 --> 00:18:31.980
 this is

00:18:31.980 --> 00:18:32.319
 what we

00:18:32.319 --> 00:18:32.720
 were taught

00:18:32.720 --> 00:18:33.039
 from the

00:18:33.039 --> 00:18:33.379
 beginning

00:18:33.379 --> 00:18:36.700
 and in

00:18:36.700 --> 00:18:37.220
 verse 8

00:18:37.220 --> 00:18:38.819
 he says

00:18:38.819 --> 00:18:39.179
 this

00:18:39.179 --> 00:18:39.839
 at the

00:18:39.839 --> 00:18:40.319
 same time

00:18:40.319 --> 00:18:40.659
 it's a

00:18:40.659 --> 00:18:40.819
 new

00:18:40.819 --> 00:18:41.879
 commandment

00:18:41.879 --> 00:18:42.639
 in one

 is
