Love is not the goal. Jesus is the goal. Love is the proof that we've reached the goal. #lovelikeJesus

Loving like Jesus here will help us stand before God without fear. Bad poetry, but good truth. #lovelikeJesus

Some things just go together: milk and cookies, bacon and eggs, being loved by Jesus and loving like Jesus. 1+1=2 #lovelikeJesus

Anytime we think we can love like Jesus without being loved by Jesus, we run the risk of making love a god. #lovelikeJesus

A culture whose god is love sells "50 Shades of Grey" but a church whose God is love doesn't buy it. We have real love. #lovelikeJesus

When "God is love" gets flipped to "love is god", even the best love in this world will leave us unfulfilled. #lovelikeJesus

Being loved by Jesus is the only way to find the capacity to love like Jesus. #lovelikeJesus

Jesus loves first, sacrifically, honestly and unconditionally. His followers will love like that, too. #lovelikeJesus

Loving first means making the first move, taking a risk and being intentional. #lovelikeJesus

Jesus could tell people the truth about themselves in such a way that they wanted to better themselves. #lovelikeJesus

The promise of 1 John 1:7 is that as we walk in the light and are loved by Jesus, WE WILL love like Jesus. Guaranteed. #lovelikeJesus

When we don't love like Jesus, we can confess our sin to a FAITHFUL, FORGIVING and CLEANSING God (1 John 1:9). #lovelikeJesus
