Proper Objects Of Our Love

Introduction Christian love is portrayed in the Greek language of the New Testament by the verb agapao and the noun agape. Described as unconquerable benevolence or undefeatable goodwill, agape love is not simply a passion of the heart, but a principle by which we live. It is an act of the will that causes us to seek the highest good of another person (Romans 13:8-10; 1 Corinthians 13:4-7).

Conclusion Everything that we do must be motivated by love (1 Corinthians 16:14). How consistently do we manifest this quality in our lives? May the Lord help us to increase and abound in love for one another, and for all people, so that we may be counted as faithful at his coming (1 Thessalonians 3:12-13).
