Kyle Morris’s sermon on 1 John 4:7–21 unpacks the truth that God is the origin, essence, and embodiment of love, and that Christians are called to love one another because of God's prior love for us. Through the sending of Jesus as the atoning sacrifice, God’s love is shown to be gracious, self-giving, and powerful—bringing spiritual life to the dead. As believers abide in God and live out His love, they are united with Him, empowered by the Spirit, and freed from fear of judgment through perfected love.
