February – God loved us first. If you have experienced Christ’s love for you in salvation, you cannot help but grow in love for others. Real love comes from God. We love because he first loved us. - 1 Jn 4:7-19 Love can be found if you lost it. Remember, Repent, Return – Rev 2:14-15 Roles – How can we show love well? Gen 2:15-25 Gen 2:15-17 – Men’s Role – Work, Keep, and Lead v. 15. Steward what God has given • “Work” – cultivate o Make it productive – arts, science, business – make productive • “Keep” – guard or watch over or care for o Take care of what God has given you – property, money, skills We have responsibility to take what God has given and provide for our families. We have responsibility to take care of what God has given us Vv. 16-17. Steward what God has said God spoke the command to Adam, before Eve was created. Adam was to steward what God had created, and what He commanded. • Lead in keeping God’s commands Adam was to lead his family to keep God’s commandments. Gen 3:9 – when Adam and Eve sinned, God went to the garden and called for Adam. Men, we must read the Scriptures, let the Scripture read you. Apply the Scripture in your life & lead your family in reading & applying the Scripture Gospel connection: Adam was put to sleep and his side opened that he might have a wife. Jesus died on a cross, his side opened by a spear that he might have a bride, the church. Jesus loves the church. He worked for it. He cares for it. Gen 2:18-19 – Creation was incomplete. “Not good” Every day God created and “it was good.” Man was alone – it was “not good.” Adam needed Eve. Gen 2:20-22 The creation of woman “helper fit” Woman was taken from Man’s side. “She was not made out of his head to rule over him, nor out of his feet to be trampled upon by him, but out of his side to be equal with him, under his arm to be protected, and near his heart to be beloved.” – Matthew Henry Women’s Role – Help, Complete • Help or aid – surround – from Hebrew ’ezer – ay’-zer It does not mean that women have a lesser role. This same word is used of God: “Our soul waits for the Lord; He is our help (‘ezer) and our shield” Ps 33:20 “My help (‘ezer) comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth” Ps 121:2 • Compliment or complete There is also the idea of a fitting or “suitable” help. Adam needs someone like himself – a mate or a match. Like him, but different enough from him Ladies, your husband is good at some things and not good at others. My observations – women are typically better at these things: 1. Connecting (relationships w/children and others) 2. Communicating (speaking clearly, listening) 3. Creating (ideas for financial goals, making home welcoming, raising kids) Genesis 2:23-25 The First Marriage Adam’s response was praise for the gift God gave. She is from “my bones… my flesh” – she is like Adam, a match or mate. She was made from him. He needed her. They will always belong to each other. They are a match, a set of two. Called Together • To be one in body and unified in purpose (2:24) • To rule together over what God has given (1:28) Too many couples feel like they are in a competition – you’re a team. God created men to Work, Keep, and Lead; women to Help, Complete (connect, communicate, create) God has given you a realm to steward, skills to work together to rule together.

February – God loved us first. If you have experienced Christ’s love for you in salvation, you cannot help but grow in love for others. Revelation is a prophetic vision given to the Apostle John of the last times. Chapters 2-3 are Jesus’ letters to 7 churches in Asia Minor. Most of churches have areas of obedience and disobedience. Just like we as individuals and a church have areas of obedience & disobedience. There is a command to address the areas of disobedience. Revelation 2:1-7 – To the Church in Ephesus v. 1. “seven stars” are representatives of the churches, called “angels” later. “Golden lampstands” are the seven churches – and represent their witness/light bearing Jesus holds and walks “him who holds the seven stars” – Jesus holds the angels in his hand. “hold” is “hold fast” or “hold powerfully”, from same root as “almighty” in 1:8 Jesus is powerful among his people. “walks among the seven golden lampstands” – Jesus is present among his people. Jesus is powerful and present with his people. vv. 2-3. Commendation: 7 areas of obedience. Works, toil, patient endurance, do not bear with evil, tested false apostles, patient endurance, bearing up for Christ’s name. Doing a lot of good things. v. 4. Verdict: The Ephesian church did good things but abandoned their first love. What love is this? Could be… • Love for each other – they may have stopped caring for each other • Love for Jesus Christ – they may have been going through the motions. Which is it? Probably both. “Whoever loves God must also love his brother.” 1 John 4:21b If we love God, we will love our brother. In loving God, we learn that we should love our brother. know how to love our brother, because Jesus shows us (patiently, forgivingly) In loving God, we have the ability to love our brother, because Jesus lives in us. The church in Ephesus was doing right things but with wrong motivation. If we’re not careful, we can do a lot of things that express no love for God or others. Their bodies were busy, but their hearts were cold. Their actions were admirable, but they were devoid of devotion. APPLICATION: This applies to love in marriage too. You’re going through the motions, raising kids, living in the same house, paying bills. But lose your devotion to each other. Why? You stopped doing things that sparked love for each other. v. 5. The good news, there is hope for this condition. There is a remedy for this malady. Remember. Repent. Return. “Remember from where you have fallen” God gave us minds to enable us to think. Jesus says “remember” – remember how you loved God before, your devotion to Christ Remember – not to regret, not for nostalgia. Remember for renewal. “Repent” turn away from sinful cold heart toward Christ and others. Stop from cold, rote activity. And do what? Return. “do the works you did at first” Go back and do the things you did at first. When you 1st came to Christ, you could not stop reading about him, talking about him. You could not stop thinking how you could bless others. How you would spend time doing something meaningful for other people. This applies to your love for Christ and your love for others – including your spouse. Have you “fallen out of love”? Are you “going through the motions”? Remember. What did you do together that you enjoyed – that you stopped doing? Are you spending quality time together? Going out on dates? That you both enjoy? Do NOT forsake your marriage for your children. Your marriage must be a priority The best thing you can do for your kids is love your husband/wife well. Repent. Say to your spouse, we have not made our marriage a priority. Return. I want to do the things we both enjoy. Make a date night. At least monthly. Is it possible to return? Jesus is powerful and present in the midst of his people.
