God’s initiating love through the gospel of Jesus Christ compels Christians to respond in love for one another, as they are being perfected in love until Jesus returns in glory! So, in light of the gospel, true believers must love sacrificially and intentionally toward all of God’s people.

Those who do not keep God’s commands are liars and do not know the truth that Christ died to deliver them not only from the presence of sin, but the power of sin. True believers, however, habitually and increasingly keep God’s commands and therefore have a growing assurance of salvation.

Through the faithful, Spirit-empowered preaching of the good news of Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection, God will build His church, adding to their number day by day those who are being saved, resulting in a community that demonstrates a radical, divinely-given, love for one another.
