Basically worldly love is a selfish love that depends on what the other person does, looks like, and makes you feel like. It is conditional and can easily be ditched at anytime.
Christian brotherly love is much different. Basically we are to love others the way God loves us. He sees us as clean now that we are redeemed by Christ. Our love is unconditional an not for selfish interests. When people outside the church see how we love each other they will notice. Most people will want what we have got. That's why in Acts 2:47 it says more were being added to their number every day.
Does everything we do make Jesus look great? If it doesn't, maybe we should rethink what we are doing.
Psalm 106:1
Praise the Lord! Oh give thanks to the Lord for He is good, for his steadfast love endures forever.
