Jesus' Love is Without Limits

For God loved the world in this way: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16.

The Love of Jesus changes us from the inside out.
Receive it, Determine to Follow Jesus, and Walk it out,

Show the love of Jesus to people in need.
Open our eyes, open our hearts and move us to action.

There must be more of Jesus, less of me.

God is the most important.

Question: How do you prioritize God in your life? Very important? Not very important? How does your life reflect your answer?


Right away a man with leprosy came up and knelt before him, saying, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.” Matthew 8:2.

Reaching out his hand, Jesus touched him, saying, “I am willing; be made clean.” Immediately his leprosy was cleansed. Matthew 8:3

Jesus’ love is without limits.

“Lord,” the centurion replied, “I am not worthy to have you come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed. Matthew 8:8

For I too am a man under authority, having soldiers under my command. I say to this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this!’ and he does it.” Matthew 8:9

Then Jesus told the centurion, “Go. As you have believed, let it be done for you.” And his servant was healed that very moment. Matthew 8:13.
9 For this reason God highly exalted him and gave him the name that is above every name, 10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow— in heaven and on earth and under the earth— 11 and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:9–11.

The love of Christ heals when we submit to His authority.

God is the most important.
Question: Though there are no limits to Jesus' love or power, why do you think we should submit to Jesus, who is God, as most important?

Submission to God.
Submit your time to God.
Pay careful attention, then, to how you walk—not as unwise people but as wise— making the most of the time, because the days are evil. Ephesians 5:15–16.

Submit your heart to God.
Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act, Psalms 37:4–5

Submit your mind to God.
Do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God. Romans 12:2.

who, existing in the form of God, did not consider equality with God as something to be exploited. 7 Instead he emptied himself by assuming the form of a servant, taking on the likeness of humanity. And when he had come as a man, 8 he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death— even to death on a cross. Philippians 2:6–8.

God is the most important.
