Romans 12:9-10

The key word is “Love” and love is defined something after this order. . .  

But the application of love is more important than the definition for the application is what gives it meaning. It is better shown or dramatized than merely defined and/or discussed. 

  1. Love must be sincere (v. 9)

--it is not manipulative

--it is not pretended

--it is not self seeking 

I Corinthians 13

 

  1. Love is discerning to benevolent ends (v. 9)

--it distinguishes causes and objects

--it is guided by truth 

I John 3:11 ff 

  1. Love should be understood in reciprocal fashion (v. 10)

--it possesses a mutuality of expression

--it demonstrates an orderly preferment 

Philippians 3:1-4

 

Our relationship with one another is the basis by which we carry out the will of God in many other areas.
