Love without hypocrisy
Saturday, January 16, 2021
Have you realized how easy it is to find fault in someone else, but difficult to see the same traits in yourself? The Bible says, "Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil; cling to what is good." Romans 12:9 (NASB9). There are different Greek terms for love. The word used here is "agape," and it describes the love of God. This is a grace-filled love. God's love is not given to anyone because he or she is perfect and deserves it. He loves us because he cares about us. Our creator knows what is best for us. God offers us forgiveness and salvation through the gospel of Jesus (see John 3:16-18).
