The love is a bond of union: "And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together, in perfect unity.", Colossians 3:14. The apostle Paul expresses this teaching in reference to Jesus: "Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?", Romans 8:35, then the apostle continues: "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.", Romans 8:38-39.

This love of Christ is the adult love, we are one in the love of God: : "That all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one so that they may be brought the complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.", John 17:21-23.
The Bible explains that the opposite of this love is sin, and sin does not unite but rather divides, divides the one who sins and divides those who live together with sin. The love of Christ and sin bear different fruits, the first bears spiritual fruits, fruits of life; and the second fruits of curse: "The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissension, factions and envy, drunkenness, orgies and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
But the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law"; Galatians 5:19-23.
