“Dear children, let’s not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions” (1 John 3:18 NLT)

When we receive Christ, we receive the love of Christ. This is the love that moved Christ to die in our place, so that we might have eternal life. Real love takes action. The evidence that we have received Christ is that the love that goes beyond mere words and takes action is suddenly ours. Christian love communicates itself through word and deed.
