Love is Eternal

Pastor Bryan

March 2, 2025

Main Idea

The central theme of Pastor Bryan's message was the eternal nature of love, as God is love and God is eternal. We were encouraged to reflect on how God's love differs from human love, which is often conditional and temporary. Pastor Bryan used 1 Corinthians 13 to illustrate that love is not just for the present but carries us into eternity. He urged us to consider our own eternity and the assurance of an eternal inheritance for those who have surrendered their lives to Jesus. The sermon was a powerful reminder that God's love is our final home and that it will never end.

Scripture References

1 Corinthians 13:4-8, Revelation 22:13, Hebrews 11:1, 1 Peter 1:3-5, Matthew 25:31-34, Matthew 25:41

How can we overcome doubts about God's eternal love when faced with the brevity of human relationships?

The love of Christ is the wellspring of love in our souls, and as long as it flows, our love can never fail.

Does God's eternal love for us include emotional aspects, similar to human emotions?

Discussion Questions:

Does the nature of God's eternal love for us change over time, and is our love for Him likely to change?

How does God react to our sins, and what does that teach us about extending grace to others?

Is it naïve to believe in someone's potential rather than defining them by past mistakes, and does God believe in our potential?

We are being prepared for an eternal weight of glory where love will be perfected, never to end, because God's love is our final home.

Summary

In Pastor Bryan's sermon 'Love Is Eternal' at our church, we explored the timeless nature of love as described in 1 Corinthians 13. We learned that unlike human love, which can be fleeting, God's love is eternal and serves as the foundation for all true love. Pastor Bryan reminded us that love is not just an emotion but a steadfast commitment that bears, believes, hopes, and endures all things. He emphasized that our belief, faith, and hope should not be cynical but should reflect God's unwavering love. We also discussed how love secures our eternal inheritance, promised by God and secured by Jesus, which is imperishable and kept in heaven for us.
