Love is not merely an abstract principle or an emotional reaction; it is the very essence of God’s nature and the foundation of all true relationship. It is not something to be conjured up through human effort, nor is it contingent upon circumstance. The love of Christ is an eternal, unfailing force that extends beyond human understanding and capability, an extension of divine reality breaking into the fallen world. This love is not just a sentiment—it is an act, a movement, a transformation. To walk in love is to walk in God Himself, for as it is written, "God is love" (1 John 4:8, ASV). The love Christ demonstrated is the standard by which all true love is measured, and it is this same love that He calls His followers to embrace and embody in the world.
