1 | Is this an adequate interpretation of..? | John 13:34 | Stultis the Fool | 128309 | ||
EdB, thank you for the various replies. I believe you confuse love with lies when you qualify your position with statements such as: "First what I said was love is an emotion, a motivator, an attitude. Love in itself does nothing. If a man says he loves a women and does nothing, nothing is exactly what he will have." "I can love my neighbor to death but if he was in the water drowning and unless I was willing to risk all and reach out my hand to save him my love would be nothing." "We see it all the time in marriages two people love each other, but they also happen to love themselves more and the marriage dissolves." If I am claiming to love, and I behave in these methods you have described, I do not love at all, and I am a liar. Is this an adequate interpretation of what you wish to express? If I behave as prescribed in 1 John 3:18 "My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth," will I avoid the wickedness you described earlier? Consider the words in John 2:21 "But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God." EdB, if this is not the case, please tell me what wickedness will be wrought by someone who loves "in deed and in truth." I look forward to your reply. |
