Introduction
The word “love” is often thrown around with not real thought of its true meaning.
Sometimes it is considered a feeling of attraction, but the Bible paints a much different picture; a picture of something much deeper and more profound than that.
God’s love sets the example for all other love
Definitions:
Three kinds of love in the New Testament Greek:
eros: has to do with physical attraction
phileos: brotherly love — the love of friendship
agapeo: The highest form of love because it is not based upon feelings, attraction, or circumstances
In it’s greatest form this love even, or especially, loves the unlovable
VARIOUS CATEGORIES OF GOD’S LOVE
God’s Love is an Inner, Trinitarian Love
God’s love has always existed internally within the triune Godhead: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
This love is perfect — the template for all Godly love
God’s Love is Infinite
How amazing that the Father loves us as much as He loves the Son
When Jesus comes to live in us…He brings the Father’s love with Him into our lives
God’s love is Sacrificial
True love is costly
God gave EVERYTHING — His one and only Son
Because Jesus loves us so much…He willingly faced the suffering and death of the Cross
God’s Love is Volitional
He chooses, by His own free will, to love us
Even though we have nothing in us to attract Him to love us…He willingly chooses to love us
It is His will..His heart…His passion to love us
God did not love us because we’re valuable; we’re valuable because He loves us — Martin Luther
God’s Love is Eternal/Everlasting
God’s Love is Passionate
His heart overflows with love for us
:
Because of His passionate love for us, God’s heart rejoices when just one sinner comes home
Who can comprehend this kind of love?
