What Is Good for Human Beings?

The holy spirit that sustain our faith so that we can continually lay hold of the promises of god, for hope, for joy, that free us for love. Christian love is keenly aware that life on earth is a vapour followed by an eternity, either of exquisite happiness in the presence of god, or eternal suffering cut off from his presence. And therefore christians care about all suffering, but especially eternal suffering. The bible tells us to do everything to the glory of god, so we should love people for the glory ofgod. If if all those godward dimensions are missing, our love is falling short of its goal, and we grieve.
