First we were loved, now we love. He loved us first.  If anyone boasts, “I love God,” and goes right on hating his brother or sister, thinking nothing of it, he is a liar.  If he won’t love the person he can see, how can he love the God he can’t see?  The command we have from Christ is blunt: Loving God includes loving people. You’ve got to love both. 1 John 4:19-21 (MSG) <span style="mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman";color:black">3.  We are insanely LOYAL I want you to put your foot down. Take a firm stand on these matters so that those who have put their trust in God will concentrate on the essentials that are good for everyone.  Stay away from mindless, pointless quarreling over genealogies and fine print in the law code. That gets you nowhere.
