Yesterday our message was from John 21 and was about "the love question". It's an important subject and one I believe is so important in our relationship with God. Yet in our response to the question it's important not only to say to our God often "I love You" but to show it. Peter was to fulfill the role of pastor/teacher which the Book of Acts confirms that he did well.
Saul (Paul) was to be a witness of Jesus before the Gentiles and kings and the last chapters of Acts confirms he did with diligence. He also testified that his motivation was the love of Christ and his life revealed it was his love for Christ.
The good Samaritan displayed his love for a stranger by stopping and helping, taking the time, paying the costs, and binding up the wounds.
So the sequel is obvious, what is the evidence that you love Jesus? Could any open door of need be an opportunity to show that we love Jesus? Could it be something as needed as directing children's church, providing a meal for a brother, helping in VBS, or giving toward the dept reduction?
What's your answer to the "love question"?
