🔸️ Must have unconditional Divine love! 🔸️
When the Lord Jesus said, "If you love those who love you, what reward will you get?" He asked (Matthew 5:46). We love our brothers and sisters who love us so much in the congregation. In return, they also love us. But according to verse 46, Jesus declares that such love is of no benefit to us. Jesus said, "because the tax collectors and the ignorant people of the World are doing that." So if we love only those who love us, we are not much privileged than the ignorant!
Not only the ignorant, but the atheists, the communists and even those who says that "there is no God", love each other as much as they love themselves. But if we love someone who don't love us, we ourselves would be the true disciples of Jesus Christ!! Based on this, ask yourself the following questions to test your personal life:
1) Those who hated me, for how many of them did i love?
2) Those who persecuted me, for how many of them did I pray for?
3) Those who harmed me, for how many of them have I do good?
You see, there are so many differences between human love and divine love. Human love could easily love those who have done good to oneself. But, what is your position when someone doesn't do good to you and steals what you have... and robs your rights and your dignity? On this circumstances only it is being tested whether we have divine love or not? This is where our righteousness should be greater than the righteousness of the Pharisees. Otherwise, neither you nor myself can ever enter the kingdom of heaven. The Lord Jesus made this fact very clear to His disciples!
Prayer:
Our heavenly Father! Not by the human love that changes, give us the grace to love everyone by the divine love that does not change forever; In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
