Thy name is selfishness

 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things

(1 Corinthians 13:4-7).

This is the type of love God has for us!

Selfishness is  a disease/ the first sin. Some believe  it is natural for a human being to be selfish to look out for our self. I say no this began in the garden it was a lie that was believed. This is why Jesus told us we need to be born again. We need to become "new creations" with a new nature the nature of divine love. We need to have the love of God in our hearts.

Then we will have the ability, if we so choose, to walk in divine love and put the interests of others before our own. When you have everyone doing that, you have heaven.

Buddha does not offer this cure. Mohammad does not offer this cure. Only Jesus Christ offers this cure for mankind.

There is only one way to be cured from this fatal disease of selfishness receiving Jesus Christ. When you receive Him, Jesus imparts His life to you giving you a new nature.
