The love of the world as a system of values that actively opposes God is antithetical to his love. In a culture where everyone is entitled to their own opinions and preferences the love of God radically sets a standard that denounces evil and promotes good. Because love does not rejoice in evil but rejoices with the truth, it is imperative for God to establish a point of reference for the way in which we should live. Instruction and correction in a world of chaotic and confusing values is what love does to make a way out of the bondage of sin.
