The question wasn't denying the regenerate's ability to love. It seemed the discussion was alluding to the regenerating work of the Spirit prior to her showing love. Since the propitiation was not yet made, that means she was not yet regenerated by the Spirit. My question was an addition to the first question, are people justified by love? If we look at the O.T. there are not a lot of instances of individuals saying they love the Lord, David and Solomon but no other individuals did I see doing a quick search, that said they love the Lord. I just find that interesting. I don't believe we can Love God if we don't know Him, that's impossible. To know Him takes a work of the Spirit to give us understanding. Those in the O.T. and the time of Christ, were witnesses of who God was through the temple worship and the person of Christ. So they could love Him where today we can only love Him by the Spirit's indwelling. They had to believe or in other words exercise faith in order to be able to love Him because you can't love something you don't think exists. My question was only for the purpose of challenging some thought.
