We know that Christ loved and continues to love us. But do we know how important it is that we love Him? The Bible states in no uncertain terms that if God is our Father, then we will love Christ (John 8:42).

As Christians, there are some things that God used in the generations before us and it's high time we dig afresh some of those wells.
