Sermon Outline:
I. We Love People by Showing Honor.
II. We Love People by Promoting Life.
III. We Love People by Practicing Sexual Integrity.
IV. We Love People by Respecting Property.
V. We Love People by Upholding Truth.
VI. We Love People by Desiring Their Good.

Sermon Discussion Questions:
1. Read 1 John 4:20-21. Why do you think we cannot say we love God while not loving our neighbor?

2. The call to honor our parents is rightly extended to all who are in authority. What does an unwillingness to honor authority tell us about our heart condition?

3. The command not to murder calls us to the protection and promotion of life, both our own and others. What opportunities do you have on a regular basis to actively love your neighbors this way?

4. What are some of the various ways we can bear false witness against our neighbors? What are some ways that we steal from others?

5. The final commandment has to do with ultimately desiring the good of others. How is it that the gospel frees us from being concerned with ourselves to being concerned with the good of others?
