Looking Like Christ Looks Like Love!



Guys, what does it look like to live for Christ? Jesus said...


"By this everyone will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another.” - John 13:35


Now, think about that. He could have said, "They'll know by how well you quote scripture. They'll know by how boldly you debate non-believers." He could have said, "They'll know by how perfectly you keep God's law. Whoever is the most perfect, well, you must be the real deal;" but he didn't. He said it's your love that shows you're one of mine. Now don't get me wrong. Knowing, defending, living out God's word; these are key aspects of our faith, but the Bible says...


"...If I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing." - 1 Corinthians 13:2


Oh, we're not just talking about loving those who are easy to love. God said anyone can do that. While you're at it, love your enemies. That's the kind of love He wants from us. That's the kind of love He modeled for us. While we were still deep in our sins, the Bible said while we were still enemies to God, He loved us enough to offer his son.


"...while we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son..." - Romans 5:10


Jesus loved the father enough to submit to Him and loves us enough to die on the cross. He died for us; now we live for Him. So, here we are right where we started (full circle) what does it look like to live for Christ? It looks like love!
