Lessons for Living (Audio)

Love for the world is a trap. Pastor Mark will share with us this truth through a story at the beginning of today's message. John isn't telling us not to love unsaved people, rather, he's warning us against adopting world philosophy. The world lusts after desires and pleasures, placing hope in possessions and achievements. A Christ follower who exhibits that kind of lifestyle cannot succeed in selfless love. What's worse, a person who invests time and resources in the things of this world will miss out on the everlasting benefit of loving others.
