Today we’ll come across a section of First John that actually wasn’t in the original Greek manuscript, but does that mean we should toss it out or disregard what is being communicated to us about the trinity?  Pastor Matt will take some time to explain how these words are substantiated in the New Testament.

Recently we’ve received a really good working definition of love from the apostle John.  After defining love for us, he then describes what God did for us.  With that as a backdrop he now tells us we’re to love one another unconditionally with God’s perfect love. I think you’d agree that is so needed in a world full of hate and evil.

About His Perfect Love

His Perfect Love is a radio ministry of Calvary Chapel Harrisburg, with Pastor Matt VanderVen. This radio ministry is an extension of the calling found in Ephesians 4:12-15, "for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ—"
