What's Love Got To Do With It!

THE BIBLE ADMONISHES US TO PRAY FOR EACH OTHER. IT ALSO TELLS US TO LOVE OUR NEIGHBORS AND FRIENDS AS WE LOVE OURSELVES. BECAUSE THAT IS THE WAY WE PROVE THAT WE REALLY LOVE GOD. THE BIBLE ALSO SAYS THAT WE CANNOT LOVE GOD WHOM WE HAVE NOT SEEN AND HATE OUR NEIGHBOR WHOM WE SEE EVERY DAY. IT GETS EVEN HARDER WHEN THE WORD TELLS US TO LOVE OUR ENEMIES AND TO DO GOOD TO THOSE WHO DO BAD THINGS TO US. AS CHRISTIANS, WE HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF MAKING THIS WORLD A BETTER PLACE IN WHICH TO LIVE. IN ORDER FOR US TO SUCCEED, WE MUST PRAY FOR EVERYONE, EVEN PEOPLE WITH WHOM WE DISAGREE. WE MUST ALSO FIND ENOUGH LOVE IN OUR HEARTS TO LOVE PEOPLE WHO HATE US. DOING THOSE THINGS MAY NOT BE EASY, BUT AS FOLLOWERS OF JESUS CHRIST, WHO LOVED HIS ENEMIES AND FORGAVETHEM FOR HIS OWN MURDER, WE ARE COMMANDED TO FOLLOW HIS EXAMPLE. WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS NOW IS CHRISTIAN LOVE SHOWN WITHOUT RESERVATION AND WITHOUT DISCRIMINATION.
