"If ye fulfil the royal law according to the Scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself, ye do well" - James 2:8.

It is a great mistake to confound divine love with mere human sentimentality. Love is only genuine when it makes one willing to sacrifice for the sake of the objects of its affection. The love of God led Him to give His Son--His only begotten--for the salvation of a sinful world. The love of Christ led Him to Calvary, there to die in order to redeem us to God. The love of the Spirit moves to unselfish devotion to the Lord and sacrificial service on behalf of a lost world. This is the real motive power that keeps Christ great missionary enterprise going. Constrained by love, men and women gladly exchange the ease and comfort of home life in this favored land, for the hardships and self-denying labors of the mission-field. The same love leads to patient endurance of trial and sorrow and the sharing of the griefs of our brethren here in the homsland.
