Love without the Act


I love to talk about evangelism, sharing our faith, going to the nations.

I love hearing my pastor preach.  “Preach it, brother!”

It is great that we have the poor on our hearts.

I love God.

Are you in love with the idea?  The concept? The experience? The argument?  The discussion?  If so, then the one who is in love is one who acts on that love.

Jesus said, “If you love me, you will keep my commandments” (John 14:15, ESV).

But…

What if we examine our lives and find no action related to that which we claim to love?  Only talk. Debate. Little obedience.

Maybe we are not really in love after all.
