Pastor Vlad continued his serious based from his book Single Ready to Mingle. He went into comparison of what is Love and what is Lust. You will learn the truths from Gods word on how to have healthy relationship.

Message Notes:

2 Samuel 13:1-2; Genesis 29:25

“Making love” does not make it love.

The world says “fall in love”. The Word says “walk in love”

The world says “find the right person”. The Word says “be the right person”

The world says “love is a feeling”. The Word says “love is a willing”

The world says “marry the person you love”. The Word says “love the person you marry”

Don’t fall into love, grow in love. Everything that falls gets broken and everything that grows gets stronger.

1. Lust is pleasure focused; love is person focused

2. Lust grasps; love gifts.

3. Lust feels like love

4. Lust is passion outside of principles; love is passion within principles.

5. Lust needs bad friends; love needs good mentors

6. Lust seeks isolation; love seeks community.

Isolation leads to fornication.

Relationship level:

a. Spiritual

b. Social (share activities, not feelings)

c. Emotional (share feelings, not nudes)

d. Physical (sexual)

7. Lust forces sex; love initiates marriage.

Lust buys a condom. Love buys a ring. Lust will take you to the back seat of the car. Love will take you to the front of the church. True love waits. Love is patient. Love is kind. Lust is not patient and not kind.

8. Lust hurts; love heals.

9. Lust does not last; love grows with time.

10. Lust gets punished; love gets rewarded

If you hurt others - REPENT.

If you were hurt - RECOVER.

The first time it happened you were a victim but now you’re a volunteer. Holding on to unforgiveness is like setting yourself on fire hoping that the person who hurt you will burn.

God will turn your wounds into scars and scars into stars.
