FULFILLED LOVE
Song of Solomon 8:1-14

We are looking at the final chapter in our study of the Song of Solomon. There are five beautiful love poems given to us in the Song of Solomon. Each one of them teach us a different aspect of love. The first one is what I have called first love. The second is faltering love. The third one is fragrant love. The fourth one I called fruitful love. Tonight I call this one fulfilled love.
The reason I selected the study of the Song of Solomon for this summer is because love is the key ingredient of the entire book. Our church functions on the basis of love. Everything we do is built around the theme and foundation of love.

We love one another. Number three, God blesses us because we love lost people. Love is the answer. Love is the reason. Love is the basis for everything we do.

In turn, I will love lost people as I ought to love lost people. It all starts with my love for the Lord Jesus Christ.
The Song of Solomon and these series of love poems are something I believe actually took place. I believe we have here the love songs that Solomon, the great composer wrote for his beloved Shulamite bride. I have used th ...
