God's love continues, just as it has begun, and continues to pour into the world through the presence of the Holy Spirit. We know this in the story of Jesus' life and death and what will be his resurrection because we're people of faith. He gives us salvation, a path to forgiveness once and for all, a promise that he will come again, a model. A path to living a life of kindness and concern. A life which continues the love command. "Love one another as I have loved you."
