4. Experiencing Perfect Love

In years gone by there was a total emphasis on our need to love God. Religion attempted to force us into feelings of love as if they could be worked up through some religious manipulation of our emotions. In recent years a new brand of religion has totally ignored the need for us to love God and put all the emphasis on God loving us. Both of these religious extremes ignore the fact that in a relationship both parties have to be in love! We love God because He first loved us. If we’re not deeply in love with God it indicates that while we may be able to quote scripture about love, we may have a well-constructed doctrine of love; but we are not, in fact, experiencing God’s love. If you’re ready to move beyond mere information and doctrine and to experience God’s love, join me this week for Experiencing Perfect Love.
