2) Are you in love with a person or the idea of a person?

Hmm...good question. Many times I cannot
distinguish the two. Many times I can only see the image they project of themselves. Many times I can see past the representations and get to the 'gist' of a person.
I will answer your second question, I have loved both.

1. I am in love with great fiction. The Bible is no "To Kill A Mockingbird" but it'll do for a good, bloody epic read. "Roots" is far superior, though - and oh, the Greeks!
2. I am madly in love with the most beautiful, incredible woman in the world. I have been in love with the idea of a person before; and while I love the members of my family, I certainly love the idea of them a great deal more than the actuality oftentimes. "In love", though... a completely different story. When I found the person way better than the idea and far lovelier than the wish I was wonder-struck. Years later I still am. I know she makes the stars shine. I know it, in fact, better than ever.

I'm learning the hard way, but I think that there are times that I've loved the idea of God, instead of worshipping the real God. But it is something that I'm asking God to show me how to love Him more and more each day.

I love and honour God. Loving an idea of God is like loving a fantasy and as for me, God is no fantasy but just as real as you and I.

I dont think you can be in love with something you dont know (which can also mean an idea), so to answer your question, I am in love with God.

i think of shall we upload a large style of alternative issues to that checklist inspite of the incontrovertible fact that it extremely is all wrapped up in a single commandment.... Love thy neighbor as thyself. If we attempt to handle others the way we desire to be taken care of, then we are able to do all those issues and extra. i actually like people who're constantly doing issues for others and speedy to forgive people. I particular desire i would be a extra clever person. I only by no ability seem as stable as i think of I ought to. Love believes the suited approximately others,,,is a toughie for me. i'm suspicious of people who submit to presents... : )

None of the above.
I love God, I'm not 'in love' with Him.
God is not a person, so point #2 isn't even valid.

I am in love with God. He is the one who guides and directs my life, and I can feel him moving in my life sometimes. Recently though, I realized that I had also fallen in love with my church. I had to realize that a church is just a church. It's my personal beliefs that really matter. Thanks for the excellent, thought-provoking question.
