Light and heat are inseparable from a candle’s flame. So also faith and love are inseparable from the Christian life…



Hear the full audio of “There is No Fear in Love“

A sermon on 1 John 4:16-21 / First Sunday after Trinity / 23 June 2019

1 John 4:16-21 (ESV)

16 So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him. 17 By this is love perfected with us, so that we may have confidence for the day of judgment, because as he is so also are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love. 19 We love because he first loved us. 20 If anyone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot[a] love God whom he has not seen. 21 And this commandment we have from him: whoever loves God must also love his brother.
