Multitudes of Christians today lack an understanding of how to make love perfect. It is not intentioned, but if only we could grasp how this love is made perfect in us, then we would enter into a brand-new understanding of spiritual life and where fear does not exist. First, God is love. Then that love was manifested to the world through the Son. But in many cases, that is as far as love ever goes in the Christian's experience.
Subjective love is unconditional.
Subjective love only belongs to God. God is love, but I am not love. Only to the degree that I receive love from God do I actually have love. Only as I receive love can I be love. It manifested itself on the cross in the unlimited atonement to pay for the sins of the world.
