Bible Text: John 15: 12-17, John 14:15, John 14:21, John 14:23, John 15:10, Galatians 6:10, 1 Corinthians 13: 4-8, | Preacher: Pastor CJ Counts | Series: Gospel of John, The Vineyard | Jesus commands us to love each other in a way that seems radical to how the people of earth love each other. We are to love each other in a way that would be impossible for us alone, but is expected for those who have God’s Holy Spirit indwelling. God expects the love to be from an overflow. It starts with our love for Him, it overflows onto our love for God’s family, the Church, and continues to spill over onto the people in our community around us who do not yet know God.
