Taught By God To Love | 1 Thessalonians 4: 9-12
Where have you seen love for one another in our church? As we saw last week, Paul was encouraging the Thessalonians to grow in holiness. He now continues in the theme of a walk that pleases God (v. 1). And here, he affirms the Thessalonian believers for their love for one another. He sees that they had been clearly taught by God to love one another. And he encourages them to grow in love -even toward outsiders in the society. So, in our passage, we'll see: a) The love that is taught by God. b) The love that increases for others. c) The love that witnesses to outsiders.
