Colossians 3:5 Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry.
How do you focus on love when you are surrounded by evil, hate, greed and all manner of strange things?
God gives us freedom from these things by allowing us to effectively put those things to death in our lives.
If they are not living in us, they will not overflow from our lives and fill other people's lives.
Fill your life with love so it overflows into other people's lives!
