loving those in community with us

i know, your thinking - "not another thing on love. we all know we are to love each other like christ loved us - so, get past it" right? your thinking that, right? come on, admit it, you know that is what your thinking. but i wonder, if we know it - and we hear it all the time, why are we not doing it?

the "fall of humanity" is a cop-out (because in christ we are changed out of that and we are to follow his way) - we live in the word is another cop out, because in christ we live in him and are not part of the world. so, why not? why don't we love others? i think it stems from the fact that to truly love someone else means we need to change a great many things we live in -we need to stop talking about and start doing it. in romans, paul writes this, "don't just pretend that you love others. Really love them." (romans 12:9). so, the question is, do we truly love others.
