In Christ We Can't Help But Love

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith. Galatians 5:22

And to know the love of Christ, which passes knowledge, that ye might be filled with the fullness of God. Ephesians 3:19

I have made Your Name known to them and revealed Your character and Your very Self, and I will continue to make [You] known, that the love which You have bestowed upon Me may be in them [felt in their hearts] and that I [Myself] may be in them. John 17:26

Jesus has sent the Holy Spirit of our Father to dwell within us, and because He does, we now have God’s love. We are now one with our Father’s perfect and complete love. We actually have living within us the very love of God, the love that came to die on the Cross, the love that lives for the very purpose of interceding for all believers, Hebrews 7:25. This is the love that has been born into us.

We are commanded to love our brothers in the Lord, that requirement is an easy yoke to be born, it’s pleasant, and we can’t help but accomplish it, because we are now one with Love! If we don’t love our brothers and sisters in the Lord, we are in darkness, and we don’t have salvation, that is what 1 John 2:9 has to say about it. But through Christ we do have the Holy Spirit and the fruit of that relationship is love, and since we know that love, we are filled with the fullness of our Father, and through Christ we have uttermost salvation! For those of us who are saved we can’t help but love, we are born of it and it now abides within us, we are one with the fullness of our Father’s love!

But concerning brotherly love [for all other Christians], you have no need to have anyone write you, for you yourselves have been [personally] taught by God to love one another. 1 Thessalonians 4:9
