True Love Tells ::: Not Just The What But The How

Love does not only talk the talk but must also walk the walk. In this passage, John shows that we demonstrate the effectiveness of God’s message when we love each other with our words demonstrated in our works of mutual care and edification, sacrificial service and generosity. All this is only possible because God has welcomed us into the very fabric of the intra-trinitarian outpouring of his presence and love.
