More from my friend Brian Swanson's sermon...
"Love is not a hobby for the Christian." I would expand... it is not that we are Christians who choose to love. It is not an add on. Love is not an extra. Love is not a hobby for the Christian. If there is no love, there is no Christian.
A person can wear the clothes. They can put a cross around their neck. They can talk about following the Bible. But if there is no love, there is no Christianity. He that loveth not, knoweth not God. 1 John 4.
It is not a hobby. It is central. It is key. It is the mark, the sign of a Christ follower.
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
