Unprovoked Love
by Mark Buchanan
Text: 2 Peter 1:1–9
Topic: When we love unlovely people, they become loveable.
Big Idea: The three groups of people for whom we need agape love are the losers, the winners, and our enemies.
Keywords: Brotherly love; Compassion; Forgiveness; Grace; Kindness; Love, divine; Love, for enemies; Relationships


Introduction: Unlovely things must be deeply loved before they become loveable.

Agape love is unprovoked love.

You need agape for the least of these.

You need agape for the most of these.

You need agape for the worst of these.

Conclusion: As you experience the fearlessness of being loved by a holy God, you will be able to do what is otherwise humanly impossible: love the least of these, love the most of these, and love the worst of these.
