The word "love" has certainly lost much meaning, particularly in our own culture, where it seems to be little more than an emotional feeling that comes and goes. The Lord spoke much of love and noted that His disciples would be recognized by the love they had for one another (John:13:34-35). John asked how any man could say he loves God whom he cannot see when he cannot love his brother whom he does see (1 John:4:20). Love is much more than an emotion dependent upon feelings. God does command us to love everyone, something we cannot do in our own strength  when there are so many who appear to be "unlovable." —TBC
