Followers of Christ must take this instruction at the center of every relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Jesus states, \u201cA new command I give you&#8230; \u201cLove your neighbor as yourself.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benefits of Loving One Another and Disciples To Love God Also<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A. Improved physical health and well-being&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Improved physical health and well-being is a blessing that comes with humility and gentleness. This attribute comes with the simplicity of mind to express love for others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Heavenly Father knows our needs better than anyone else, so it is important to always reach out in prayer for guidance on how best to take care of our improved physical health and well-being can be achieved with faith, humility, gentleness, and sincerity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cLove does not envy or boast. It is not irritable or resentful (1 Corinthians 13:4\u20138a ESV)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">B. Increased emotional stability and satisfaction&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Increased emotional stability and satisfaction can be achieved when people are more understanding and compassionate toward one another. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People should stop complaining about each other and instead focus on expressing love and good words to make relationships stronger. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mutual understanding and respect for each other\u2019s feelings will help bring peace of mind and joy. This will ultimately bring about increased emotional stability and satisfaction for all those around. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When individuals grumble against one another, it creates an atmosphere of negativity which leads to distressful emotions. Therefore, emphasizing more on the positive aspects of life rather than dwelling upon the negative ones can help us achieve increased emotional stability and satisfaction in our lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201d Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus&#8230;\u201d Philippians 2:5-11<\/em><br><em>(KJV)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><br>C. Better relationships with family, friends, and strangers&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Contentment paves the way for mutual love, care, and understanding, avoiding irritable or resentful feelings. Also, avoiding the deceitfulness of sin. The only way to have healthier relationships is by having a heart that is content and free from the bondage of selfing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to remember to build strong relationships with others. Achieving peace of mind allows for a foundation of affection, concern, and comprehension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Desiring excessive success can produce exasperation or bitterness since it is usually a form of dishonesty. It is vital to recall that to form strong ties with others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The only way to have healthier relationships is by having a spirit that is placid and liberated from the captivity of self-interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;D. Having a stronger sense of community and belonging<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To have a stronger sense of community is what all children of God should strive for. No one does well in isolation! This can be something to achieve through endurance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To walk as a team, a child of God must understand that people have different personalities. Hence, while we uphold Bible principles, we must respect each other and aspire to achieve harmony within our community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We must remember Christ\u2019s command to love and serve one another. God is love, and we must stir up one another in love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To live in harmony with one another means that we must love like Christ and pray for one another- bearing with one another. Be kind and respectful towards one another, never being arrogant or rude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being part of something bigger than ourselves can bring us joy, peace, and comfort. Meaning with a sense of unity, we will be able to bring each other many new opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">E. Greater feelings of purpose and meaning&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A greater sense of purpose and meaning in life can be bought by embracing the idea that we are all connected and are obligated to each other. The phrase <strong>\u201ca new command I give you\u201d<\/strong> is often used to describe this &#8211; to love your neighbor as yourself and to have lo love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This goes beyond simply being nice to each other but focuses on genuine concern for others and showing compassion towards them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201c&#8230;bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.\u201d Colossians 3:13 (NLT)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical Tips for Loving One Another (Must Love)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Action spoken louder than voice, here are tips to demonstrate true love&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/tips.jpg\" alt=\"Tips for Loving One Another\" class=\"wp-image-60004\" width=\"203\" height=\"135\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/tips.jpg 650w, https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/tips-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 203px) 100vw, 203px\" \/><\/figure><\/div><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Showing compassion towards others<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Listening more than you talk<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Being patient with yourself and others<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Accepting differences without judgment<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Volunteering your time to help those in need&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Some Bible verses encourage us to have \u201clove for one another.\u201d&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;The Bible encourages us to love one another, a concept expressed in many verses. One of the most well-known examples is found in John 13:34 when Christ said, <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cA new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Here Jesus is setting an example for us to follow by showing us the pure love he had for others. Another good example can be found in Galatians 5:13-14, which says, <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cFor brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>This verse emphasizes how important it is to show our brothers and sisters unconditional love and acceptance in Christ.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1 Peter 4:8 states, <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cAnd above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The verses above really speak about brotherly love and how it can help each other heal and draw closer to God.
