Walking in love is the sign of faith of in GOD, through our love and savior JESUS CHRIST!!
Walkig in love is the sign of freedom from this world, but yet still living in the world where sin is king.
Walking love towards all people shows the vision of the possibility of the glimpse of what heaven can be.
Walking in love changes our enemies.
Walking in love manifests more love.
Jesus is love.
Jesus walking in love changed you and me.
Please pray the LORD's PRAYER and please read:
EPHESIANS 5:1-20 1 As God's dear children, then, take him as your pattern,
2 and follow Christ by loving as he loved you, giving himself up for us as an offering and a sweet-smelling sacrifice to God.
3 Among you there must be not even a mention of sexual vice or impurity in any of its forms, or greed: this would scarcely become the holy people of God!
4 There must be no foul or salacious talk or coarse jokes -- all this is wrong for you; there should rather be thanksgiving.
5 For you can be quite certain that nobody who indulges in sexual immorality or impurity or greed -- which is worshipping a false god -- can inherit the kingdom of God.
6 Do not let anyone deceive you with empty arguments: it is such behaviour that draws down God's retribution on those who rebel against him.
7 Make sure that you do not throw in your lot with them.
8 You were darkness once, but now you are light in the Lord; behave as children of light,
9 for the effects of the light are seen in complete goodness and uprightness and truth.
10 Try to discover what the Lord wants of you,
11 take no part in the futile works of darkness but, on the contrary, show them up for what they are.
12 The things which are done in secret are shameful even to speak of;
13 but anything shown up by the light will be illuminated
14 and anything illuminated is itself a light. That is why it is said: Wake up, sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.
15 So be very careful about the sort of lives you lead, like intelligent and not like senseless people.
16 Make the best of the present time, for it is a wicked age.
17 This is why you must not be thoughtless but must recognise what is the will of the Lord.
18 Do not get drunk with wine; this is simply dissipation; be filled with the Spirit.
19 Sing psalms and hymns and inspired songs among yourselves, singing and chanting to the Lord in your hearts,
20 always and everywhere giving thanks to God who is our Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
21 Be subject to one another out of reverence for Christ.
GOD BLESS US ALL, Praise JESUS,

Last year was my 77th year (I was 78 this past March 25th)and began to be more aware we cannot love someone we don’t know.
The first and great commandment is: “To love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind and soul.”
The second like unto it is: “To love your neighbor as yourself.”
In May I have plans to attend my 60 High School reunion. I ordered a wonderful nice Bible book mark titled: “49 Ways to Love God and Others”
Quoted just under that title: “If ye love Me keep My commandments.” (John 14:15)
COMMANDS OF CHRIST
rEPENT,BEBORN AGAIN, FOLLOW ME, REJOICE, LET YOUR LIGHT SO SHINE, HONOR GOD’S LAW, BE RECONCILED, DO NOT COMMIT ADULTERY, KEEP YOUR WORD, GO THE SECOND MILE, LOVE YOUR ENEMIES, BE PERFECT, (and that is just the first 12)
Now I ask myself, and each of us:
“Can I love God without knowing Him?”
“Can I love my neighbor without knowing him?”
“Can I keep the Lord’s commandments without knowing them?”
Peace and Blessings be to you.
Nicely done. Thanks. The extra space between the lines of verse makes it easier to read for me.
Which translation is this?
Jesus and the moneychangers. That kind of love?
God also demands justice, is jealous of the worship of other gods, rewards an punishes....
Love is fine, but I’m a little hesitant to ascribe that as even His main attribute.
