over an article on the website of the Community "God is Love"
( http://followchrist.info/e_love.html )
Although the lived love as the hallmark of the Christians important point is, it took a long time, until an article appeared about love on the website of the Community ... Is it an indication of the lack of love? Or we were too busy living the love in other areas?
God gives his love . He gave us this life and everything. Moreover, he gives us eternal life through His Son Jesus. He makes us capable of love.
Love is not intense feeling, but is connected with the decision and always wants the best for the others.
Only God's love can satisfy our desire to be loved completely.
God's love is telling the truth , reveals hypocrisy and all other sins, even if it is unpleasant. For example: "God gives us everything we need and gave us many things and skills in order to love yourself and to do good. When we sin, we abuse the good gifts of God, as we use them for evil, without respect for it, for which they were entrusted. A son who squandered the whole heritage of his loving and caring father gives him frustration, and disregarded his father rejects him. Similarly, we ignore God and reject him, if we do not ask how he wants us to live "
-.
We ignore God, if we are not our abilities to good use. Not what is pleasant to hear, but what calls to repentance.
But I can not find the article in the Community, the wonderful statement of love from 1 Corinthians 13: "Love is patient, love is humble, love, forgive, love does not bear the injustice to ..."
God loves everyone , not just sympathetic. Jesus taught us to love even our enemies and pray for persecutors - also I did not find the article in the community.
love binds Christians together. Love also gives each other confidence and freedom. Love does not dominate over the others.
The early Christians even shared their property together. I guess Jesus does not want the rest of us, we make dependent.
