Types of LOVE

EROS: Romantic Love or Lust

PHILIA: a kind of Love that exists between friends without lust.

STORGE: a kind of Love that exists in a family

AGAPE: GOD'S kind of Love.

1 Corinthians 13:3-8 (Amp.)

[3] Even if I dole out all that I have [to the poor in providing] food,
and if I surrender my body to be burned or in order that I may
glory, but have not love (God's love in me), I gain nothing.

[4] Love endures long and is patient and kind; love never is
envious nor boils over with jealousy, is not boastful or
vainglorious, does not display itself haughtily.

[5] It is not conceited (arrogant and inflated with pride); it is not

rude (unmannerly) and does not act unbecomingly. Love (God's
love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it
is not self-seeking; it is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes
no account of the evil done to it [it pays no attention to a
suffered wrong].

[6] It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but

rejoices when right and truth prevail.

[7] Love bears up under anything and everything that comes, is

ever ready to believe the best of every person, its hopes are
fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything
[without weakening].

[8] Love never fails [never fades out or becomes obsolete or

comes to an end]. As for prophecy (the gift of interpreting the
divine will and purpose), it will be fulfilled and pass away; as for
tongues, they will be destroyed and cease; as for knowledge, it
will pass away [it will lose its value and be superseded by truth].

WHY LOVE ?............ THAT THEY MAY BE ONE !

John 17:20-23
✨ Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall
believe on me through their word;

✨ That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in
thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe
that thou hast sent me.

✨ And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that
they may be one, even as we are one:

✨ I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in

one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and
hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

Ephesians 4:13 (Amp.)

[13] [That it might develop] until we all attain oneness in the faith
and in the comprehension of the [full and accurate] knowledge
of the Son of God, that [we might arrive] at really mature
manhood (the completeness of personality which is nothing less
than the standard height of Christ's own perfection), the
measure of the stature of the fullness of the Christ and the
completeness found in Him.

1 Corinthians 1:10-13

📍 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus

Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no
divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in
the same mind and in the same judgment.

📍 For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by

them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions
among you.

📍 Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I
of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.

📍 Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye

baptized in the name of Paul?

Psalms 133:1-3

📍 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell

together in unity!

📍 It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down
upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts
of his garments;

📍 As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon

the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the
blessing, even life for evermore.

📌 God is LOVE
📌 Jesus is the GREATEST example Love.
📌 And we are to follow Him.
Mark 12:29-33

[29] Jesus answered, The first and principal one of all

commands is: Hear, O Israel, The Lord our God is one Lord;

[30] And you shall love the Lord your God out of and with your
whole heart and out of and with all your soul (your life) and out
of and with all your mind (with your faculty of thought and your
moral understanding) and out of and with all your strength. This
is the first and principal commandment. [Deut. 6:4, 5.]

[31 ]The second is like it and is this, You shall love your neighbor
as yourself. There is no other commandment greater than these.
[Lev. 19:18.]

[32] And the scribe said to Him, Excellently and fitly and
admirably answered, Teacher! You have said truly that He is One,
and there is no other but Him;

[33] And to love Him out of and with all the heart and with all the
understanding [with the faculty of quick apprehension and
intelligence and keenness of discernment] and with all the
strength, and to love one's neighbor as oneself, is much more
than all the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices. [I Sam. 15:22;
Hos. 6:6; Mic. 6:6-8; Heb. 10:8.]
John 13:34-35

✨ A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one

another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

✨ By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have

love one to another.

John 14:15 ... If you love me, keep my commandments

John 14:21, 23-24

21. He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is

that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father,
and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.

✨✨✨✨
23. Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will
keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come
unto him, and make our abode with him.

24. He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word
which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.

John 15:9-17

9. As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye

in my love.

10. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love;

even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in
his love.

11. These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might
remain in you, and that your joy might be full.

12. This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I

have loved you.

13. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his
life for his friends.

14. Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.

15. Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth
not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all
things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto
you.

16. Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained
you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit
should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my
name, he may give it you.

17. These things I command you, that ye love one another.

EXAMPLE OF THE EARLY CHURCH

Acts 2:42-47

42. And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and

fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.

43. And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and
signs were done by the apostles.

44. And all that believed were together, and had all things
common;

45. And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to
all men, as every man had need.

46. And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and
breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with
gladness and singleness of heart,

47. Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the
Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.
