Created to Be Lovers

John 15:12 "This is my commandment.That ye love one another,as I have loved you".

It is so easy now a days to find a reason not to love.We live in a world that has become divided by race, religion,national origin,sexual preference, and politcal parties.We tend to hate anything and anyone who don't agree with us or who isn't like us.In a country that was built on differences it is sad that the thing that made us a great nation is now the same thing which is tearing us apart.But that is to be expected from the world,but the sad thing is this attitude and state of mind is now encompassing the beliefs of those who profess to be christians.

We who profess to have been born of the spirit of God were created to be lovers and not haters. When you profess to be Christ like you give up the right to hate any man.You cannot love God and hate that which He created and died for.We can disagree with the policies, opinions,ways and decisions others might make,we can hate the sinful acts one might commit,we can go so far as not to believe what they believe,but we don't have the right to hate them.Jesus said the world would know we are His by our love one for another.It is not hard to see why the world can't tell the difference between the self professed christian and the out right sinner,as both tend to speak hatred.Let us who profess to know the Lord love like we know Him that the world might learn to love.Jesus told us, we the born again blood washed baptised believers to love ye one another,then He qualified it by saying as I have loved you.

See we are to love each other with the same love that Christ loves us with.Our love should be one that suffers love,and is kind,not envious,not provoking,and without evil thought.A love that can bear all things,hopeth all things and can endure all things.A love that can weather the storms and trials of life and still be seen by a dying world.A love that will give of itself that another might have eternal life. We were created to be lovers,so let us love one another and share with a dying world Christ and Him crucified.The greatest love of all.
