Where is your active passion? Do various kinds of entertainment, such as movies and sports paralyze you in a chair for hours at a time? Are your passionate actions about saving the lost and serving God? Or are you more passionate about being a spectator or even a player of football – or going shopping – than you are about spiritual actions?
Do you keep your fellow man at arms length? Do you not really trust God and so not let Him into every part of your heart? How often do you pour your heart out to God in prayer, worship, etc. ? The degree to how much we do, shows how much we really love God.
“This commandment I give unto you, that you love one another. . . " “By this you shall know that you are my disciples, if you love one another. . . " “You have heard love your neighbor, but I say to you love your enemy!”
