I.  Biblical restoration requires true community.

   

    A.  In fulfilling Jesus’ command, we must love one another.                     vs. 2, Matt. 22:24-40

 

    B.  In loving one another, we must want to know one another. 

 

 

II.  Biblical restoration requires spiritual maturity.

 

    A.  In restoring one another, we must be gentle.

 

    B.  We must exercise wise vigilance.                                                                   I Pet. 5:6-11

 

 

III.  Biblical restoration is the gospel on display.

 

    A.  We have all sinned.                                                                                           Rom. 3:23

 

    B.  God in His gentle mercy has restored us to Himself.                                        Rom. 5:7-11

 

 

Have I been reconciled to God?  Is there an area in my life in which I need to be restored to God?
