That sounds like a great way. I’m not as good as I’d like to be with talking to people. Especially in that sense because people tend to default to defensive. So would you agree that it is our duty to correct people when we see them sin?

Absolutely. And the intention of the Law never was to save. I agree with you that the Law was given to us to help us however, obeying the Law today does not make life easier it makes it much harder. If you don’t mind, what ‘Law’ are you referring to?

Wounderful scripture to prove what you’re saying. It also gets to much of the point that I was making. would you agree that if a brother/sister were to commit a sin it is our duty to tell them their error? also, what is your belief on Old Testament law and how/if it applies to us now?

I’m excited to see how many replied to my question. I certainly hope that’s the norm here on Worthy. However, I think most may have misunderstood my question. Romans 12 and 13 certainly touched on it so thank you Promises. Still, I would think there would be more than this. This is a question that I’ve been asking lately because I feel it should be apparent, yet it doesn’t seem to be. There are plenty of verses that tell us to love, but there are much less that tell us how. I think most if not all of us on this site understand how to be nice, which in many cases could certainly show love. But nice doesn’t necessarily mean love. The way I see it is ‘love’ does not change. Love now is the same love that We had 6,000 years ago. Nice however is maybe more cultural therefore it does change. Some you may do for someone now to be nice may have angered people 6,000 years ago. Would anyone agree with this?

Hello fellow Christians, I believe I asked this question in the wrong forum so I’ll re-ask it here. In my experience, it seems as if the New Testament as a whole is really known for its love. Certainly we see that in Christ. We as Christians are called by Christ to show love to one another. However, is love ever defined in the New Testament? Love being the greatest commandment I would think that it is defined in a really clear way but I don’t know that I’ve read anything that does in the New Testament. If anyone could point me in the right direction that would be great. Thanks in advance.
