This is the question put to Simon Peter by our Lord. In a message on
the subject by J. C. Ryle, Mr. Ryle made nine statements concerning what
it means to love Christ.
1. If we love someone, we like to think about Him.
2. If we love someone, we like to hear about Him.
3. If we love someone, we like to read about Him.
4. If we love someone, we want to please Him.
5. If we love someone, we like His friends.
6. If we love someone, we are jealous for His honor.
7. If we love someone, we like to talk to Him.
8. If we love someone, we like to be with Him.
9. If we love someone, we love to speak of Him.
Our Lord asks His disciples, "Lovest thou Me?"
