Sanctifying & Constraining Principles of Love

"It is through the truth the love of God is revealed and shed abroad in our hearts; love is a sanctifying principle, "We love him, because he first loved us"; love is a constraining principle, "the love of Christ constrains us." (p. 307, Our Lord Prays For His Own, Marcus Rainsford)

Rainsford outlines 2 principles:

1. Love is a sanctifying principle

2. Love is a constraining principle

Sanctify as setting apart for holy use; and constraining as restricting or compelling, paints a very unique picture of love.

Let love sanctify and constrain you today.
