1 John 3:16


"By this we perceive the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren."

Christian Life

Through Jesus Christ the love of God is placed within us by the Holy Spirit (Rom 5:5). We have been delivered from the law that we might be free to walk in love towards God and toward others. This is the nature of the New Covenant. Instead of living by reference to a religion, a tradition, or a legal code, Christ lives His life in and through us as a free gift. As we walk in His faith, we experience the fruit of His love.

In this chapter we see what this love looks like, what it means in our daily lives and what its values are as the scripture portrays it. After a look at love itself, we will see how loves works in the following areas of our daily Christian lives:

• Family.
• Godliness.
• Good works.
• Christian giving.
• Involvement.
