A message from the series "Sunday Service." The world is very confused about what love really is or, to put it another way, what real love is. A quick glance at the visual arts, music or advertising industries bring out a few common denominators: love is simply a feeling and its intensity - or lack of it - is conditioned on satisfying desires and reaching expectations. As such, it can be fleeting and, more often than not, blatantly egocentric. A Biblical definition of love is radically different, because it does not start with mankind, but with God. Whether that love is romantic or the love expressed in friendships and family relationships, genuine love comes from God because “God is love” (1 John 4:16). If God is love, then we love others best by loving Him most.
We will be looking at Acts chapter one and focusing on the Mission of the Church. In week two we will focus on the role that prayer and the Holy Spirit have in the life of the church. The third week we will look at the role of God´s Word in the church.
