Vanquished are all restraints:

When we see the Living God for who he is.  

When we see ourselves properly for who we really are without him.  

That is to say:

By ourselves we are not love, we are only a compulsion to gather support for one another in our plight. And this compulsion we label love.  

But God has loved us first. This is love:

From his place of never ending peace, he came to walk among the beggars of compulsion. From his place of unity, he came to be torn apart by the fickle mind and hands of man.  

Then, amazing multiplied by amazing, he offers to take us in.  

He is love.
