God's Relationship to Mankind Betty Lou Merritt

Love is the ultimate test of the Christian faith. Christians show their love to God by loving one another. Love is the first act of a renewed heart. Those who have love in their hearts have fellowship with God. But where there is no love there is no fellowship. The proof of the love of a Christian is in their walk, this love is genuine and not subject to change. This is love as they walk in obedience of the commandments of God. Continuing in the Christian life is necessary evidence of genuine faith. God has predestined some people to become a part of His family as a result of their response to the gospel call: The gospel call is general and external and often rejected. The gospel call comes from human speech it is offered to all people.
