The American Bible Challenge Bible Study - Part 1Sample

Thank you for joining us as we continue exploring God’s love! Yesterday we looked at one passage explaining the greatest demonstration of love: Jesus giving his life for us. Today, we’ll check out another passage about what God has done for us and how we respond to His love. Let’s look at 1 John chapter 4, verses 7-12.

Reflection:

How did God show his love to us, based on this passage? Why did God send Jesus? Have you chosen to “live through him”? In other words, have you received Jesus’ sacrifice and asked him to forgive your sins that separate you from a perfect God? Have you asked Jesus to take control of your life, and live through you in the coming days? If you haven’t, you can do that right now by asking Jesus to forgive your sins and live through you.

As a result of receiving Jesus and his love, how will it impact you and others (based on verses 11-12)? Whether you just received Jesus’ sacrifice for the first time today or years ago, thank God for His love for you. Thank him for the privilege of reflecting His love to others.
