- What The Bible Says About Love
- My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no
- one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if
- you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does
- know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything
- that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. You did not choose me,
- but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit-fruit that will last.
- Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name. This is my command:
- Love each other.
- John 15:12-17
- For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever
- believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
- John 3:16
- Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not
- proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it
- keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the
- the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
- And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is
- love.
- 1 Corinthians 13:4-7, 13
