Key Passages: 1 John 4:7-11, Mark 15:38 Key ideas: Love is inconceivable apart from the Gospel. True love is seen in God’s giving of Christ for us. The Gospel is an act of giving love, but it is also how we enter into love (Mark 15:38) through the removal of sin’s separation.
Our love is to be defined by God’s love. Without the Gospel, true love is impossible. The key to love is to remain at the foot of the cross.
