What True Love Does Not Do
Categories: Church of Christ Bulletin Articles Tags: Bible Lessons on LoveBrother Stan Mitchell (scroll down for bio), one of the writers for Forthright Magazine, provides us some excellent characteristics of biblical love in his recent article entitled, “Hypocritical?“:
“Biblical love is a behavior, not a warm fuzzy feeling. Love is tough. It overcomes obstacles. It does not walk out on its commitments. It is selfless. In a word, it is what Christ did for us ….. True love does not desert when something better comes along, it exhibits determination when the times get tough.“
Any married couple contemplating divorce, need to seriously look at the above characteristics of biblical love that Brother Mitchell has provided, and then determine to “keep on keeping on” regarding their marriage relationship; remembering that marriage is for better, for worse, and for keeps.
