Larry challenges us to know the truth and to love one another by abiding in Jesus.
The Body of Christ is the bride of Jesus. He is our true lover and will be so throughout eternity.
We don't come into the Kingdom of God as an equal, with the ability to negotiate obedience. We are called to surrender everything and trust that our King is good, and through that trust, follow Him wherever He calls us to go.
We need to be open to receive love since we are the objects of God's love. Only when we are able to receive love, then we are able to give it.

As Paul finishes his first letter to the Corinthians, he touches on several issues such as the offering for Jerusalem, his future visit, the welcoming of Timothy, and the mentioning of several other brothers and sisters. He concludes the letter, tying it all back to doing everything in love.
