Which is better: to believe that God makes an every day, every moment decision to love, or that God IS love and every decision of every day and every moment comes from love?There is such a subtle but deadly difference between making a decision to love, and every decision coming from love.
I think this one difference is one of the huge reasons why there is such a focus on "how to's" in the church today. "How to love," "how to live the Christian life," etc. The church is teaching people "how to love" rather than "living from love." Again, it's so subtle, but so HUGE a difference!
