TOPIC: The Right Way To Love (Open Heaven for Teens, 14 February 2025)

MEMORISE: And we have known and believed the love that God hath to Us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. 1 John 4:16

BIBLE READING: 1 John 4:7-8

7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

MESSAGE

People around the world are celebrating Valentine’s Day today, and I know that some people have prepared to express love in many immoral ways. However, as your father, I want you to know the right way to express love. On this subject, as with all other subjects, it is important to follow the teachings of Christ, who showed love through kindness, forgiveness, and selflessness.

Many young people base their love on emotions, which is why they fall into trouble. At your age, you have no business expressing love by being romantically involved with anyone; rather, you should show love by giving to people in need, listening attentively to their challenges, and offering support and encouragement. You should also show love by visiting and praying for those who are sick, helping out with chores, and preaching Jesus through your words and actions.

I am aware that some people are difficult to love because they have an unkind or ungrateful attitude. However, Christ wants you to love them regardless; remember that He also died for you while you were yet a sinner (Romans 5:8). My dear child, you have a responsibility to show love to everyone – the Jesus kind of love.

KEY POINT

Honour God in your expressions of love.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
Exodus 37:1-38:31, Matthew 28:1-20

HYMN 31 – Wonderful Story Of Love

1 Wonderful story of love! Tell it to me again;
Wonderful story of love! Wake the immortal strain.
Angels with rapture announce it,
Shepherds with wonder receive it;
Sinner, O won’t you believe it?
Wonderful story of love!

Refrain:
Wonderful! Wonderful!
Wonderful story,
Wonderful story of love!

2 Wonderful story of love!
Though you are far away;
Wonderful story of love!
Still he doth call today.
Calling from Calvary’s mountain,
Down from the crystal bright fountain,
E’en from the dawn of creation;
Wonderful story of love!

3 Wonderful story of love!
Jesus provides a rest;
Wonderful story of love!
For all the pure and blest;
Rest in those mansions above Us,
With those who’ve gone on before Us,
Singing the rapturous
chorus;
Wonderful story of love
