Yes, we must be diligent in evaluating a church based on its adherence to the word. We will also know a congregation of disciples based on their love.

Based on their love of God, or their love of the world and everything in it?

Love of God and love of people, not love of the world. Jesus's love is our model for love - he loved sinners while also condemning our sin. He associated with tax collectors, prostitutes, adulterers, and other unsavory characters while calling them out of their sin. We cannot erect a wall that prevents our love from reaching the people in the world, but we also cannot fall into the trap of loving the things of this world. We cannot allow the justification and love of the sinner to become the justification or love of sin.

100 percent agree with your post. But is not sin defined by the bible, as the transgression of the Law? Or how would you define it?
