Sincere Love

Romans 12:9, "Love must be sincere."

Love must...it insists on. Love must be sincere. It cannot be mixed with division or adulterated with lesser objects. In the Greek, sincere is without hypocrisy. And what is hypocrisy, but being what you are not. It was play acting to them. We can't play love, it must be from within us. It must be who we truly are. From the Latin, 'sin' denotes 'one' and 'crescere' carries the concept 'to grow.' How wonderful to see the root of one growing. That is what we want to do in love, become one as we grow in love. There is the idea of unity - all for one - sincere.
