2. Jesus Loves You, Even When You Fail
How could Jesus ever take us back when
we fail Him repeatedly?
One individual should comfort us: Peter.
Matt. 26:31-35: Jesus predicts Peter’s
denial.
Matt. 26:69-75: Peter denies Jesus.
Yet, Jesus restores Peter (John 21:15-
23).

3. Jesus Loves You, Even When You Fail
Jesus still wants us in His family, even after
we have failed (I John 1:8-9).
Jesus will accept us where we are (II Peter
1:5-8).
Jesus has a place and work for us, pushing
us forward (Philippians 3:13-14).
Jesus gives us a clear picture of success
(John 21:18; I John 1:8-9; Rom. 8:28-
39).

4. Jesus Loves You, Even When You Fail
He expects us to follow Him, sacrificing
ourselves for His will (John 21:18-19; Romans
12:1-2; Galatians 2:20).
He expects us to care for His sheep (I John
4:20-21; Romans 15:2).
He expects us to do the job, even when we do not
feel like it (John 14:15).
He expects us to stay focused on Him and our
duty, and not get distracted by others (John
21:20-23; Matthew 25:14-30).
