Love — Topics — True Gospel Canada

Overview

God calls His people to love Him with all their heart, soul, and mind—a love that exceeds all other attachments and priorities. This love is not merely emotional but involves commitment, obedience, and delight in God's presence. Throughout Scripture, believers are depicted as a covenant people whose love for God mirrors His faithful love toward them.

Key Scriptures

"Jesus said to him, 'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.' This is the great and foremost commandment" (Matthew 22:37-38, NASB).

"Because your lovingkindness is better than life, my lips will praise You" (Psalm 63:3, NASB).

"Whom have I in heaven but You? And besides You, I desire nothing on earth" (Psalm 73:25, NASB).

Application

Examine whether your daily choices—use of time, resources, and attention—reflect genuine love for God above all else.
