2 Corinthians 12:15 | I Want To Know What Love Is - Harry Walls
Sunday, 8 February, 2026
In 2 Corinthians 12:15, the Apostle Paul offers one of the clearest and most compelling pictures of true love found in Scripture: a love that willingly spends and is spent for the good of others, even when that love is not returned. In a world filled with competing definitions of love—emotional, conditional, and transactional—this message invites us to measure love by a biblical standard rather than a cultural one. This sermon explores love as a settled conviction rather than a fleeting feeling. Paul’s declaration is not rooted in convenience, reciprocity, or personal gain, but in commitment, sacrifice, and Christlike resolve. His love becomes the foundation for trust, influence, and spiritual impact, revealing that true love is not about getting something from others, but giving oneself for their good. Rooted in the example of Christ, this message reminds us that biblical love is supernatural in nature. It is not driven by what is deserved or returned, but by a heart transformed by the love of God. As we abide in Christ, His love is displayed through us, allowing others to see a God they cannot see through a love they deeply long for. Key points: 1. Heartfelt resolution: an “I will” determination 2. Others-centered passion: a “for you” at “my expense” action 3. A Christlike reflection: “I will” even if you don’t… conviction
