	The First International Christian Polygamist (FICP): 180. Unconditional Love, Unconditional Submission (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		When our loving or submitting takes place outside of Divine Law what results is cultism, whether it be the sexual lawlessness of the hippies or the doctrinal perversions of the Moonies, Branch Davidians, Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses, or anything else that is not 100% faithful to the Word of Yahweh, the Bible.
		And although ultimately it is love with saves and exalts us, and although it is love which alone has any meaning at the last day, that love cannot be known until first it has been defined by Truth because there are, quite simply, so many counterfeit loves.
		When these things are in place, the possibility for unconditional love on the part of a man towards a prospective bride becomes possible, and her unconditional submission to him desirable when betrothal covenants have been made and not before.
