download true love according to the bible

When we operate out of love, we are able to work through struggles and difficulties. When our relationships are governed by love, everything else falls into place.ġ Peter 4:8 says, “And above all things have fervent love for one another, for ‘love will cover a multitude of sins.’” It is a sturdy love that perseveres through thick and thin. We are called to love others just as God has loved us.Ĭhristian love is much more than a feeling. God has demonstrated His profound love for us by sending Jesus to save us. The best relationships are those that are filled with Christian love. But with God’s help, we truly can have good relationships. We will still have struggles and sin against each other. Our relationships certainly won’t be perfect. Jesus is our model for healthy relationships and we are called to be like Him. Part of being a Christian is pursuing healthy relationships. Anyone who puts their hope in Jesus has their sins forgiven and is given innumerable blessings. Now, any person who believes in Christ has access to God. In Ephesians 2:14-15, we read: For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation, having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two, thus making peace.

Through His death and resurrection, Jesus broke down the wall that divided them.

When the Bible was written, there was deep enmity between Jews and Gentiles (non-Jews). He gives us supernatural power to love one another and treat each other with dignity and respect. Jesus also restores our relationships with one another. Through Christ, all our sins are forgiven and we can call God “Father”. First and foremost, Jesus restored us to God through His sacrificial death on the cross. The good news is that Jesus Christ came to bring healing to our relationships. Since then, every relationship has been marred by sin. Sin, however, created a rift between Adam and Eve, damaging the sweet fellowship God had given them.
