BIBLICAL TEXT
Matthew 25; 1 John 4:7-21
Point 1:
Jesus wants people to be ready for the wedding. We are ready for Jesus’ return based on the way we invest our lives in His Kingdom.
Point 2:
We are not saved by deeds, but our deeds are evidence of our relationship with Jesus.
Point 3:
We invest our lives in God’s kingdom primarily by loving others.
Point 4:
Assurance of salvation: Confess that Jesus is the Son of God, Indwelling of the Spirit, and Sacrificial Love for Others. You can’t say “I love God” if you’re not loving people.
