Where does true love come from?

Answered in 1 source

True love comes from a heart transformed by the Holy Spirit, reflecting God's love within us.

True love, as described in the Bible, does not arise naturally from human inclination but is a product of divine transformation. According to Romans 5:5, 'God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.' This implies that love is a supernatural grace that manifests in believers who have been renewed and regenerated by the Spirit. Consequently, a heart aligned with God is capable of expressing genuine love, characterized by selflessness and sacrificial actions toward others. As such, love is both a fruit of the Spirit and an evidence of one's relationship with Christ, making it essential for a robust Christian faith.
