Love One Another | Biblical Family Virtue R | Ep. 21
Episode description
What is love? And why is that such a difficult question to answer in today's culture? We open this episode by comparing 1947's dictionary meaning and today's dictionary meaning to see how far away we've come from love centered around God.
God is love, but that love is only to be viewed and seen in light of all of His other virtues. God's primary virtue is holiness, so we cannot separate the two. God's love "is a static disposition of the will towards His people that is always unchanging."–Knowing Fatih Podcast
We are so thankful that God is more committed to Himself and His covenant than just a feeling towards us.
Love is found when we look at its corresponding object. If we love what God loves, then our love is morally good. But, if we start loving what God hates, then our love has become a twisted sin. If we suggest "love is love" apart from a corresponding object, then we have rendered it as an idol and removed it from its moral anchor: the one true and living God.
At the end of the day, do we define love, or does God?
