As we wrap up our What's Love Got To Do With It? series, and we celebrate Pentecost Sunday, the day where the Father fulfilled his promise of sending the Holy Spirit to the church, we look at what it means to endure in love, to hope in all situations, have faith, press on and doing so in the power of the Holy Spirit.

We would probably say good vs. evil, unrighteousness vs. righteousness.... but Paul says that love doesn't rejoice in wrongdoing, but instead of saying the opposite is doing what is right, he says, love rejoices in the truth.... And what does it mean to rejoice in wrongdoing, or rejoice in the truth?

The enemy is out to kill, steal and destroy. And one of the best ways he can do that in our lives is to get in the way of our relationships. Whether that is at home, at work, at church or in our neighborhoods and communities. If we are against each other, we aren't loving each other.

Paul talks specifically about things that we need to choose to do and not to do when it comes to love. Today we continue at looking at how to protect and build our relationships through loving like Jesus loves!

As we continue to look at what love does not do, we realize what love does. It's in the not doing that the clarity for what must be done appears. If I'm not rude, then what am I? And is not being rude simply refraining from doing certain things, or is it about embracing a way of love that is contrary to being rude?

Paul tells us a lot about what love is, but he also tells us a lot about what love is not and what love does not do. It is equally important to know what we need to stop doing while learning how we should act. Just like Jesus said we must first deny ourselves to follow him, sometimes we need to learn what we are doing that isn't working to stop it, so that we can move forward with what we should be doing!

Love is patient... It's the first thing Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 13:4 about what love is. What does it mean to be patient? And what does that have to do with love, anyway?

In this new series: What's Love Got To Do With It? We are going to be looking at what Paul writes in 1 Corinthians about love. How does love act? Well, love doesn't act any certain way, love is what we do when we act a certain way! And if we aren't following the way of love, we aren't truly loving! We are meant to love like Jesus loves, love out of a place of having received God's love for ourselves!
