1 Ephesians 5 LOVE ONE ANOTHER JAN-COR BRINK Therefore be imitators of God, as His dear children. 2 And live and act lovingly, as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up to death on our behalf as an offering and sacrifice to God, yielding a fragrant odor. Ephesians 5 22 Married women, submit to your own husbands as if to the Lord; 23 because a husband is the Head of his wife as Christ also is the Head of the Church, being indeed the Saviour of this His Body. 24 And just as the Church submits to Christ, so also married women should be entirely submissive to their husbands. Ephesians 5 25 Married men, love your wives, as Christ also loved the Church and gave Himself up to death for her; 28 So too married men ought to love their wives as much as they love themselves. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 For never yet has a man hated his own body. On the contrary he feeds and cherishes it, just as Christ feeds and cherishes the Church; John 5 0 If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father s commands and remain in his love. I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. John 5 2 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 3 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one s life for one s friends.

2 John 3 0 By this it is evident who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil: whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is the one who does not love his brother. 5 Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him. John 3 6 By this we know love, that he laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers. 7 But if anyone has the world s goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God s love abide in him? 8 Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth. John 3 22 and receive from him anything we ask, because we keep his commands and do what pleases him. 23 And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us. John 3 34 "A lot new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. 35 "By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another." John 4:7 7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. 8 The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love. Love one another (John 3:34-35; 5:2, John 4:7, -2; 3:8) Comfort one another ( Thessalonians 4:8). Consider one another (Hebrews 0:24). Encourage one another (Hebrews 3:3, 0:25). Edify one another (Romans 4:9, Thessalonians 5:). Admonish one another (Colossians 3:6). Minister one to another ( Peter 4:0). Patient and forgiving one another (Colossians 3:3, Ephesians 4:32). Submitting one to another (Ephesians 5:2, Peter 5:5).

3 Teaching one another (Colossians 3:6). Preferring one another (Romans 2:0). Pray for one for another (James 5:6). Showing hospitality one to another ( Peter 4:9). Greeting one another ( Peter 5:4). Fellowship one with another (John:7). Have peace with one another (Mark 9:50). Be of the same mind one towards another (Romans 2:6, 5:5). Bear one another's burdens (Galatians 6:2,5). Confess your faults one to another (James 5:6). Serve one another (Galatians 5:3). Be kindly affectionate one toward another (Romans 2:0). Have compassion one for another. (Col 3:2) 2 Timothy 3: - 7 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 2 Timothy 3: without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. 2 Timothy 3: - 7 Have nothing to do with such people. 6 They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over gullible women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires, 2 Timothy 3: always learning but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth. Hebrews 0: And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, 25 not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another and all the more as you see the Day approaching.

4 Mark 8 34 And calling the crowd to him with a his disciples, he said to them, "If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 35 For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospel's will save it. 36 For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul? Timothy 4: - 2 The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. 2 Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. 2 Timothy 4:3-4 3 For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. Acts 2: Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, Acts 2: praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. Acts 4: All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had. With great power the apostles continued to testify to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And God s grace was so powerfully at work in them all that there were no needy persons among them. For from time to time those who owned land or houses sold them, brought the money from the sales and put it at the apostles feet, and it was distributed to anyone who had need.

5 Philippians 2: - 7 Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, Philippians 2: then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. 3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, Philippians 2: not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. 5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: 6 Who, being in very nature God, Philippians 2: - 7 did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; 7 rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. Corinthians :0 0 I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought. Psalm 33: How good and pleasant it is when God s people live together in unity!

6 Peter 3:8 8 Finally, all of you, be likeminded, be sympathetic, love one another, be compassionate and humble.. A WAY TO SEE CHRIST IN OTHERS 2. A SOURCE OF ACCOUNTABILITY AND GUIDANCE 3. A PLACE TO PRAY AND WORSHIP 4. A PLACE TO SERVE 5. A WITNESS TO THE WORLDS John :7 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. Galatians 6 Brethren, even if anyone is caught in any trespass, you who are spiritual, restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness; each one looking to yourself, so that you too will not be tempted. 2Bear one another's burdens, and thereby fulfill the law of Christ. 0So then, while we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, and especially to those who are of the house
