How should we respond to four powerful truths from the Apostle's conclusion to his letter?

I. Because of Christ's love, you are not alone. (19-20a) Receive his love.

II. You have been loved by Christ to love one another. (20b) Share this love.

III. Not everyone shares this love. (21-23) Beware of adversaries to this love.

IV. A Christlike leader enduringly loves all Christ's flock. (24) Submit to godly leaders for the sake of Christ's love and your greatest joy.
