This message is a doctrinal and pastoral exhortation centered on the all-important question: "Do you love Christ?" Building upon previous teaching on the full deity and true humanity of Jesus, the preacher shifts from theological affirmation to heart-level examination. Using 1 Peter 1:1–9 and 1 Corinthians 16:22 as anchors, he shows that love for Christ is both evidence of salvation and the fruit of a regenerate heart. The message defines this love as goodwill toward Christ, delight in Him, and desire for Him, and urges the congregation to test themselves in light of Scripture. Loving Christ, the preacher argues, manifests in obedience, joy, and perseverance—because He first loved us. The sermon closes with a passionate call to repentance and faith for those who lack such love, and renewed affection for those who do.
