"A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another"
Having a strong, biblical
foundation based on solid doctrine is essential in the life of all Christians.
It keeps us humble to know, for example, that we have been saved by God's
grace and that we did not choose Him, but that He chose us. It help us not despair
in our daily battle against sin the wonderful doctrine of the Perseverance of
the Saints. He will not let us go. He who has called us will never leave us nor
forsake us. He who began a good work in us is able to complete it. Our
salvation, from A-Z depends only in the work of Christ Jesus, and that is
strong, comforting doctrine. The doctrine of the Sovereignty of God is what
gives us hope when all seems to be falling apart, when there are many questions
and a few answers. That He is ruling this world and that he knows the number of
the hairs on my head, makes a whole world of a difference. The way we
approach God in prayer, the way we live our lives, the way we respond to sin,
the way we deal with the desires of our hearts, all we do depends on the doctrines
on which we stand.
There is one doctrine, however, that we sometimes leave on the side. We know it is there and we pretend to know it well until differences arise and conflict comes our way, I am talking about the doctrine of love.
