Manage episode 501315292 series 2534897
There are two things, two attitudes, that kill love. In this message, Chip exposes what those two attitudes are, how to spot them, and how to keep them from ruining your love life.
Learning to love in “Real Time”
- Responding to Hurts:Truth: Love is patient and kind (1 Corinthians 13:4a).Practice: When hurt, love absorbs the blow and responds with kindness.
- Responding to Differences:Truth: Love does not envy or boast; it is not rude, self-seeking, easily angered, or does it keep a record of wrongs (1 Corinthians 13:4b-5).Practice: Celebrate differences and refuse to compare (1 Corinthians 12:12-31).
Comparison always leads to carnality.
- Envy (Compares UPWARD): Produces jealousy, anger, resentment, and bitterness (1 Corinthians 12:15-16).
- Solution: Believe God is good and has provided what's best for you. Admit and repent, ask God to use you, meditate on His goodness, and choose gratitude.
- Arrogance (Compares DOWNWARD): Produces pride, boasting, rudeness, and independence (1 Corinthians 12:21-22).
- Solution: Admit your needs and be vulnerable to receive God's goodness. Remember everything is from God, recall your humble beginnings, spend time with those who know your true self, and admit your needs.
