Affirmation Is Not Love

In this episode, we dive into another hotly contested matter: what is biblical love? Many conversations start with the simple truth, “God is love,” and yet quickly become confusing when love is separated from who God truly is. God is not only love in the way we imagine. He is holy, just, righteous, sovereign, and infinitely beyond our understanding. From the very beginning, humanity has struggled with the same temptation: not to reject God, but to shape Him into someone we can control. A god who mirrors our preferences, validates our choices, and fits neatly into our assumptions. Scripture calls this not devotion, but idolatry. This struggle often appears when we try to defend or assert truth. On one side, we can bend or revise reality to make God more convenient. On the other, fear of compromise can harden our hearts, using truth as a weapon instead of submitting to it with humility. Both approaches miss God’s heart. Distorting Scripture does not happen only through cultural revision. It also happens through reactionary rigidity. Either way, we place ourselves at the center instead of God. Our goal in this episode is to slow the conversation down and refocus it where it belongs. Instead of defending positions out of fear, convenience, or pride, we want to ask a faithful question: what does God’s Word actually say, and how should it shape both our beliefs and the way we live as His followers?
