These words are still beautiful no matter how often you read them... 1 But what about justice? I'm 'easily angered' when I see people doing wrong or lying all the time...so I should forgive them and forget it? So why do we need judges? Why doesn't a judge say to a criminal: "You didn't know what you were doing...I forgive you...go in peace"? 2 Once there was a big storm in the place where I live. An older woman fell and her head was full with blood. Before that I was shopping with my mother who is VERY SCARED in a storm so she wanted to go home immediately! When that woman fell, I ran to her instead of protecting my mother. Isn't that strange? I didn't THINK or FEEL anything. Why did I rescue that woman and abandoned my own mother whom I loved? Was that LOVE or just a kind of instinct? |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 907170 It can't be acceptance as a definition because who would out of love accept a rapist raping someone right in front of them? In other words there are things that Love will NOT accept for the sake of others and even for the sake of itself. SO, as a conclusion to this point if I see someone being hurt or about to be hurt then out of love I will warn them even if they may not like it. e.g. If I know they will die in their sins and go to hell if they do not believe in Jesus Christ then I will try hard to convince them and to get them to repent their mind towards the Truth that I know to be True.

And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another." -- Galatians 5:14-26 |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 30742855 United States 01/06/2013 02:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Want to know Love incarnate? Jesus Christ, the only Begotten Son of God IS LOVE incarnate and He performed the ultimate act of Love. He laid down his life and suffered and died for us all (he could have saved himself but He didn’t) in order to save us all from damnation because of our sin and all you need to do is accept and believe in Him and put your trust in Him for your salvation. Go here and know True Love --> [link to www.jesus-is-savior.com] Quoting: Veresanctus [link to www.jesus-is-savior.com] Did Jesus recognize the witches who knew true love? The priestesses who did? The alchemists who did? The scribes who did? The oracles who did? His own followers who did not? I bet He could, and I bet most of His followers forgot how to long ago. |
