DID JESUS CHRIST LOVE PEOPLE UNCONDITIONALLY?
If Jesus had practiced the kind of love many people advocate nowadays, He would likely have lived to a ripe old age. We've come to view love as being nice—forgiving and forgetting, yielding to the desires of others. Yet the kind of love modeled by Jesus has nothing to do with manners or unconditional acceptance. Rather it is shrewd, disruptive, courageous, and—as a result—socially unacceptable.
In Bold Love, Dr. Dan Allender and Dr. Tremper Longman III explaint the aggressive, unrelenting, passionate power of genuine love. Far from helping you "get along" with others, this kind of love introduces the outlandish possibility of making a significant, life-changing impact on family, friends, coworkers—even your enemies.
