The Beatles sang a song with the words ,'All you need is love', it was a world wide hit with six hundred million records sold . But love without truth ,or love without morality ,or love where God is excluded? The world loves many things,gods who are not god's, People love their country, their pets,their cars, their families ,and so we could go telling what people love, and yet do not love God.One has not to be carried away by a wave of sentimentality,God loved the world by giving His Son,their response was they nailed Him to a cross.Of course many non Christians do loving things,and we applaud them for that,but they do not love the Son of God. We cannot cut God out of the picture, multitudes, do,as if to say He doesn't matter, He should take first but He is left out in the cold.Ask them this question would they be prepared to die for God, The apostle of of love John wrote the following,'This is love; not that we loved God,but that He loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our Sins.
'Such love!Such grace!Makes the pieces come falling into place,
Breaks through the darkness, turns on the light,
Making blindness give way to sight, your love has conquered,
Has set us free to become all You've called us to be,
Healing the wounded,making us stand,bringing peace and a sword in your hand.
And no power in the universe can separate us from the love of God.
We're Yours forever with nothing to fear,
Willing slaves to the love that brought us here.' ( Words Dave Bryant)
