Matt 25:31-46, LOVE: Not Just My Neighbor, We have Received Grace So We Can Be Merciful, John 10:8, 1 Timothy 1: Our Fear of Rejection - Destroys Our Confidence in Gods Love 1a. Fear makes us Run & Hide from agape - No one likes rejection Gen 3:7-13, 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves [b]coverings. 8 And they heard the [c]sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, (THE GENTLE BREASE) and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden. 1b. Our Shame from Unworthy feelings causes us to reject Agape Page 1,

2 Gen. 3:9 Then the Lord God called to Adam and said to him, Where are you? 10 So he said, I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself. (AFRAID, FULL OF SHAME, HID, DISTANCE, DEFENSIVE) 11 And He said, Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you that you should not eat? 12 Then the man said, The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate. (BLAME-SHIFTING, TO OTHERS & GOD), (BLAMING THOSE CLOSE TO ME) And the Lord God said to the woman, What is this you have done? The woman said, The serpent deceived me, and I ate. (BLAMING THOSE ABOVE US, NEXT TO US, BELOW US BECAUSE OF FEAR) 1c. Our Confidance In True Agape Will Bring Us To Confession * Are You worth more than Jesus? Yes / No, God thought so! How Much Is Your House Worth?, How Much Someone Will Pay For It! 1d. Agape Love Will Help People Find Their Value In Christ 2. Actively Build Confidance Among The Rejected Cast Out Fear John 13: Little children, I shall be with you a little while longer. You will seek Me; and as I said to the Jews, Where I am going, you cannot come, so now I say to you. 34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. 2a. This Was A New Kind Of Love, A Result Of New Birth, If Spirit Led 35 By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another. (If You Love Like Me) 2b. Confidence That Casts Out Fear Is Actively Lived 1 John 4:18 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love. 2c. True Agape, Reveals True Sonship, Reveals True Fatherhood Romans 8:15 For you did not receive a spirit of slavery that returns you to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship, by whom we cry, "Abba! Father!" 2d. As We Agape, Our Love (Confidance In Love) is Perfected 1 John 4:12 No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God remains in us, and His love is perfected in us. (God Is Revealed In Us and Through Us, To Others) Page 2,

3 3. SIMPLE COMMAND, Just As Christ Has Loved, LOVE Romans 15:1-7 We then who are strong ought to bear with the [a]scruples (Infirmities, Failings) of the weak, and not to please ourselves. 3a. Just As Jesus Does, Bear Up Those Who Are Weak 2 Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, leading to [b]edification. 3 For even Christ did not please Himself; but as it is written, The reproaches of those who reproached You fell on Me. 4 For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the [c]patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope. 3b. Just as Jesus Does, Bring Hope Through Sacrifice in truth 5 Now may the God of patience and comfort grant you to be like-minded toward one another, according to Christ Jesus, 6 that you may with one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. 3c. Just As Jesus Does, Bring Unity in Spirit and Truth - Reality 7 Therefore receive one another, just as Christ also received us, to the glory of God. 3d. Receive Others (even STRANGers) JUST AS Jesus Does You! 4. Unconditional Love/Agape Casts Out Fear 1 John 4:7-21, 7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves (Agape) is born of God and knows God. 8 He who does not love(agape) does not know God, for God is love. 9 In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. 10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 4a. The Revelation of Jesus Is In Our Love, Casting Out Fear 12 No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us. 13 By this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit. 14 And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son as Savior of the world. 15 Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. 16 And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him. Page 3,

4 4b. Agape Remains Confident/Bold, Knowing Full Acceptance 17 Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love. 19 We love Him because He first loved us. 4c. Agape Love Remains Confident in it s Object of Love 20 If someone says, I love God, and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? 21 And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also. When You Stop Fearing Rejection You Render the Enemy Helpless It stops the enemy from interfering with your eternal purpose Example of Gods Promises and Love: I have gifts for my children, (It s Done, They are separated from them by knowledge, wrapping paper and time) but the are destined! Stop Fearing, Gods Promises Belong to you, Prefect Your Love and You can walk in Boldness, Destiny and the fulness of Love in and through You! What did I LEARN most? How will I LIVE out what I Learned? How can I GIVE it, or help someone else with what I have learned? I Choose to be a Life-Giver, This Week In This Way? Page 4,
