The Kingdom of Love - Sermon Follow up

It almost seems foolish, the way that Jesus set up his Kingdom and told us to live. Yet, the foolishness of God confounds the wisdom of men (I Corinthians 1:27) and shows us a better, more accurate way to live. We see the example of Jesus who performed the most awesome display of power when he chose to use his power to die on the cross for those who crucified him.
As we humble ourselves to this radical, distinct way of loving and allow God’s Spirit to work in us to purge us of all of the ways we are not like this (Ephesians 4:31; Romans 12:2), we begin to manifest the true love of the Kingdom of God to those around us. People are not ultimately won to Jesus by our crafty arguments, slick programs or scare tactics. People are won over when they experience the unique and beautiful Kingdom love; the love of Jesus made real in our lives. They experience Jesus by the way we serve, the way we give, the way we surrender and the way we love sacrificially.
