2 | motive or love? | 1 Cor 13:1 | Shythiyl | 167619 | ||
Are we really to have motive? Motive is something (as a need or desire) that causes a person to act. I should think that love itself is motive. Without love, religion is worthless. I think you may be asking is a Christian supposed to have a reason to love. We love because we are loved. Not that we are nessisarily loved by those we are to love, but because God first loved us. We are no more deserving of the love of God, than the most vile and wretched individual we are to love. It is hard for us to love those whom we dislike. We are not asked to love their ways, only the person. God loves the sinner, not the sin. Jesus did not come for the sake of the saved, but the unsaved. Nowhere does scripture say that it is easy to be a Christian. The world hated Jesus. It will also hate us, but we are not of the world. |
