LOVE IS FROM GOD

   "Beloved, let us love one another:  for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.  He that loveth not, knoweth not God; for God is love.  In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might love through him.  Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins."  (1st John 4: 7-10)
   As we can see, the word "love" comes to us from God, "for God is love".  For man, in his carnal mind and separated from God, would have never thought of the word we know as "love". 
   And the love of God came to earth in the person Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, to demonstrate the love of God upon the earth.  If Jesus, however, had chosen to remain in heaven, the love of God would not be in the world today.
   Therefore, it is impossible for us to love others with the love of God without the love of Christ abiding in our hearts. 
   The word "love" is written in the Bible more than three hundred times for God wants us to know the love of God in Christ.
   In the Koran of Islam, for example, the word "love" does not appear:  no, not one time, for the love of God does not abide in Islam:  for the people of Islam are taught to believe in Allah, who is no more than an imaginary god from the imaginations of men.
   Nor does the love of God abide in any other religion upon the earth, for all of the religions of man have rejected the Son of God and have created imaginary sons of gods in an effort to duplicate the one and only Son of God, who is Christ the Lord:  all of which are false Christs, which are designed to turn the faces of people away from Christ and to believe in an imposter.
   Therefore, it is no great thing for adults to train children to be religious, for teaching children to be religious is as simple as teaching letters of alphabets and numbers of mathematics; and just as easily as teaching children to believe in Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny.
   Now we can see and believe that love originated from God to earth instead of from earth to God, and the evidence is found in Christ the Lord.
      "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.  For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved."  (John 3: 16-17)
