SUMMARY

(www.mensgroup.org – “Original Study”)

In the 1960s when I was first learning to drive a car, a small device could be attached to the motor to keep the car from traveling too fast. It was called a governor. I remember pushing down on the gas pedal to go faster and having the device resist because I had reached the top of the governor’s allowance. Today, it is called a car speed limiter and is used to prevent teen drivers from driving too fast. It allows parents to program a top speed that is unable to be exceeded. Governors are used to protect life.

Love is a governor of life which is here to help you to (1.) be on your guard, (2.) stand firm, (3.) be a man of courage, and (4.) be strong in your life.

These four actions provide direction and purpose in life, and should all be done (5.) “in love.” No one does well without them, and no one can achieve them without God in their heart and by their side.

Spend time in your group, or by yourself, deciding how to enact these five commands in your life on a daily basis. When you learn to achieve them with God in your heart and by your side, there are no limits to what you can do for Him.

Are any of Paul’s five commands not present in your life? Which one(s)?

Do any have a limited presence in your life, except maybe only with your family and closest friends?

How could you impartially expand to everyone in your city the action of loving with agape love?
