How do we know the love of God is essential?

Answered in 1 source

The love of God is essential as it drives the core principles of justice and mercy in our relationships.

In Luke 11:42, Jesus rebukes the Pharisees for their meticulous tithing while neglecting the love of God and justice. This highlights that genuine faith cannot exist separately from love and justice in our dealings with others. The love of God is foundational, as it is a reflection of God's character and should compel believers to act justly. The absence of love in our interactions reveals a troubling deficiency in our faith and practice.
