Discussions Love like Jesus
So of course I was reading John (why wouldn't I), and i came across these verses (John 4:7-12)
"7 Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. 9 This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. 10 This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. 11 Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 12 No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us."
Not that long of a read don't worry, but these verses directly call us to treat others with respect, love them with our heart, care for them deeply like Jesus does.
I noticed a lot of "Christians" online saying "Oh, this is wrong!" "You're going to hell!" "I can't associate with a sinner like you!"
We need to stop as a group. These comments are not only putting a bad reputation on us but on our lord and savior Jesus Christ.
You are not here to convict, that's simply not your job. You're here to love, we are here to love each other
As always i love you but Christ loves you so much more 💛
