What drives people? There are some who say it is the material urges of survival, others say anger and hate. However, love of country, love of family, even love of self can rally people to powerful action, even if that love is misplaced.The Bible says that mankind is made in the image of God, and that God is love. Its pages are full of people driven by love, responding to love, and obeying God in love. If Jesus Christ is the primary subject of the Bible, then love is the theme. The greatest act of love in history was when Jesus Christ died to pay for the sins of the world.The word love appears in the Bible hundreds of times, and though it is not the most used word in the Bible, it is one of the central themes and driving forces of God’s Word.Photo credit: Unsplash
