Christian Study - Love
|
What
does the Bible say about Love?
Love
The
Christian should love God and other people. Christ demands that we love
all men, even our enemies. The kind of love that a Christian is to have
must be displayed by what he does.
Mark
12:30,31
|
[Jesus
said] And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart,
with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your
strength. This is the first commandment. And the second, like it,
is this: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. There is no
other commandment greater than these.
|
Matthew
5:43-48
|
You
have heard that
it was said, You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy. But
I [Jesus] say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse
you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who
spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of your
Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the
good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you
love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax
collectors do the same? And if you greet your brethren only, what
do you do more than others? Do not even the tax collectors do so?
Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is
perfect.
|
John
13:34,35
|
[Jesus
said] A new commandment I give to you, that you love
one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.
By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love
for one another.

Peter 1:22
|
Since
you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the
Spirit in sincere love of the brethren, love
one another fervently with a pure heart,
|
John
14:15,21
|
[Jesus
said] If
you love Me, keep My commandments....He who has My commandments
and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be
loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to
him.
|

John 5:2,3
|
By
this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God
and keep His commandments. For this is the love of God, that we
keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.
|
Romans
13:8-10
|
Owe
no one anything except to love
one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law. For
the commandments, "You shall not commit adultery,"
"You shall not murder," "You shall not steal,"
"You shall not bear false witness," "You shall not
covet," and if there is any other commandment, are all summed
up in this saying, namely, "You shall love your neighbor as
yourself." Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore love is
the fulfillment of the law.
|
1
John 3:11,14-18
|
For
this is the message that you heard from the beginning, that we
should love one another....We know that we have passed from death
to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love his
brother abides in death. Whoever hates his brother is a murderer,
and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him. By
this we know love, because he laid down his life for us. And we
also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. But whoever has
this world's good, and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his
heart from him, how does the love of God abide in him? My little
children, let us not love in word or in tongue; but in deed and in
truth.

1
Corinthians 13:4-8
|
Love
suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade
itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek
its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in
iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes
all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails
....
