- The word love is found all throughout the Bible and represents a foundational truth of the Christian faith. Yahweh is a God of love, and as people created in His image, we are to be people characterized by love.
- While the English language has only one word for love, the original Hebrew and Greek of the Bible utilized several forms of this critical word. The Bible uses different words for love to display the nuanced differences within loving relationships.
- The Greek word “phileo” is used in the Bible to denote friendship, fondness, and affection. It is the love that Yeshua (Jesus name in his language) had for Lazarus when he wept at his tomb and is not a uniquely Christian idea.
- Agape is sacrificial, and always seeks the best interest of the beloved. It is present and active regardless of emotions or circumstances.
- Love is of God because God is love. Those of us who know Yahweh, know love, and have experienced it unconditionally through him.
- The Greek word “agape” is used far more often in the Bible and represents a love unique to the Christian faith. Agape is often described as unconditional love, or an altruistic love directed at someone who you know may give you nothing in return.
