The Motivation of Love

by Jerry Bridges

2 Corinthians 5:14–15
 (ID: GS846)

God’s love is the most powerful force on earth, boundless and unconditional—an infinite ocean, in John Owen’s terms. Preaching the Gospel to ourselves acts as a daily reminder of that love’s nature. Jerry Bridges encourages us that experiencing God’s love will drive us also to love and serve in ways that duty or guilt never could. If we worry we aren’t lovable, we need only remember that we are made so because of what Christ has done.
