What does a Christ-like community look like? The Apostle Paul answers the question by starting with (1) sincere love, and then adding to that challenge by requiring that we (2) both hate evil AND do so while loving good (that is, oppose evil with righteousness, not with evil), (3) loving each other, and lastly (4) putting each other above ourselves.
This is what it takes to be Christ-like. That's what we need faith, grace, and the power of the Holy Spirit to accomplish.
