Husbands love your wife
Parents love your children
Brothers love your siblings

Your title or responsibility does not exonerate you from true practice of love from a pure heart

Love must be real, sincere and active without hypocrisy
Let love be without dissimulation
- Deceptive simulation

When you love people, you must be genuine
Dissimulation means hiding what/who you are but pretending to be what/who you are not

You must demonstrate love for the family of God
- The world has reduce love to commodity item

Examples:
2 Samuel 20:8-11
David wanted something done and sent Amasa ahead of time. Joad was nephew to David, was the General of the army
When they were at Gibeon, Amasa knew Joab very well, an army officer in Israel.
Joab had a military garment with sword underneath his garment.
Joab said to Amasa,
" My brother, Are you doing well ?
You look great today ? How is everything going with you ?"
As he drew him close to give him a big hug, he reached out with sword and stabbed him in the stomach
and his entrails fell out -- that the man died on the spot !

Sometimes we worry about being stabbed in the back !

Mathew 26:47-50
Jesus had 12 disciples he had been with for 3 years
Judas came one of the 12 that was selected and appointed.
He gave the sign that whomsoever I shall kiss, you should take hold off and arrest.

2 Corinthians 6:4-7

We must learn to love for us to have sincere Love
1 Timothy 1:5

Prayer
Lord help me to love all my friends
Love help me to love everyone in my neighborhood , in my workplace, in my family
