So, i can really only truly Love if i have Jesus in my heart?

Question

I wonder how my girlfriend would react if i changed "I Love You" for "well, I assumed I loved you, but as it turns out I can only truly love you when i have Jesus in my heart"

Answer 1

Well apparantly my husband and I will never truly love each other because we will never have Jesus in our hearts. That is ok though cause we are truly happy.

Answer 2

Even though God is a loving God, He is a just God. What would you say about a judge that was corrupt and would judge people unjustly, if the innocent would go to jail and the culprits free? It's the same logic. Romans 3:23 states: "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." You might be saying: "I did not sin, it was Adam and Eve!" But it's like the baby that is born with AIDS because his/her mother had it. Even though the baby didn't do anything wrong, he/she nevertheless have the disease. Sin is the deadliest disease there is! You might be saying: "If God judges people today for what others committed in the past, then he is not a true just God!" Well the good news is that God loved the world sooo much, that he gave his only begotten Son [Jesus], that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life -John 3:16. Let me illustrated it through an example: Lets say that you owe a big sum of money to the Italian Mafia and that they threaten you and say: "Listen, if by tomorrow you don't pay us our money, then you’re a dead man!" And since you don't have the money, you are scared to death. But all of a sudden and unexpectedly, there comes along a friend and tells you: "I know that you don't have the money and since I'm your friend and love you, I'm going to pay it for you!" How would you feel? I know that you would feel relieved and tremendously grateful. Sin was a great debt that no one was able to pay. But since God was our friend and dearly loved us, he decided to pay it for us and not condemn us but give us forgiveness and eternal life in Jesus Christ! God doesn’t send anyone to hell! The great debt has already been paid! The decision to go to heaven or hell is now solely yours! Make the right decision and choose Jesus! -God Bless

Answer 3

You can love without Jesus in your heart. Love was around LONG before Jesus or the Bible ever showed up and many of the deepest romances in existance had nothing to do with Jesus. Whoever told you that is a kook and it's a load of hogwash. Blessed be.

Answer 4

You can truly love even without Jesus in your heart -- but not to the extent to which you were speaking in your first question, when you wrote about having a huge amount of love for humanity in general. That's Christ-like love. It can only come from Christ.

Answer 5

it depends on your beliefs but as for myself i'm reglious but i dont practice.. so what im saying is if you feel you love someone then you truely do.. otherwise u wouldnt say it. Trust your heart.. not what someone tells you. plus the bible has been re-wrote throughout the years so someone might of added something in.,

Answer 6

yes, that is true. You can not know love until you experience it for yourself. Christ died for our sins, and that took a great deal of love. you may like your g/f, but you can't love her unless you are saved. and truly love.

Answer 7

Nope, you can love without that guy, but you'll end up in hell when you're done loving without him. Says the best book ever SOLD.

Answer 8

No anyone can feel and express love. I don't know where anyone got that idea.
Peace Be With You,
Debra
