Love Without Dissimulation

"Let love be without dissimulation."  Romans 12:9.  The word "dissimulation" means pretense or hypocrisy.  Christians do not pretend to love.  Love among brethren is to be genuine.  Love for others is to be true.  No area of the Christian life is to be hypocritical.  We truly love because God truly loves us.  Every expression of our love is to be true.   Genuine love for others is a mark of our devotion to God.  Our hearts abound with love because God has filled us with love.   Love flows from the fountain of heaven into the souls of the redeemed.  From us, that love flows outward.  True, genuine, and pure love that helps, consoles, and abides.  Hypocrisy cannot fulfill its obligation.  Being loved, we must love.  The love of God's children is not confined.  It reaches into the lanes and byways of the world and touches each soul.  We love our brethren faithfully.  We love our neighbors truly.  We love our enemies sincerely.
