What happened to Christian love?

ove the Lord your God with all you heart, mind, and strenght... You will know My disciples by their love for one another... Love your enemies, and bless those who persecute you... All these things Jesus said have one thing in common: love. Not just any kind of love, but Agapē love: the kind of unconditional, ever-faithful love that our Lord has for every one of us.

As Joel Chernoff wrote, "The love He gives us, we've got to share." Nothing kills me more than to see Christians hating, slandering, and gosiping about one another, as well as against their enemies! Are my hands clean of this? Of course they aren't; I'm just a human being, not a god. However, we're all works in progress, and I've learned much this past week as the Lord has laid this subject on my heart. I hope by sharing it with you all the Lord will bless you with great wisdom, and most importantly, great Agapē love.

If we love people, we will share the Gospel with them. Romans 10:17 tells us, "Faith comes by hearing and by hearing the Word of Christ". If people don't understand the bad news then the Good News wont make sense. People who don't think they have a fatal disease will think you're crazy if you try to give them the cure. The 10 Commandments give us the clear warning signs that we have offended God. A lie makes us a liar and all liars will have their part in the lake of fire. Repent and believe.

I was totally feeling ya bro what happened to inviting people who are poor and invitng into our houses at church meetings.... It seems like all christians are putting on a show and are very individualistic.. Everyone else is out for themselves...

To save them you show love. Through your love God is seen.

Thank you for your insight. Sadly, true conversion is rare nowadays. It's obvious when certain "Christians" say or act in contradiction to what our Bible teaches.

That is what happens when you destroy relationship and go for religion, relationship with God teaches you how to act as a real Christian and the sanctification changes the way we walk, talk, sleep, and interact, it teaches in the bible to let our behavior show our character and people will come and take interest in us.

It's sad to see that you are correct people in my Church judge all the time, things that don't even concern them like inner City Youths which they equate to bieng Yobbish Criminals and that sort bring back Agape Love

I would so agree
