Lesson 14: Love

April 30, 2024 • Pastor Joseph Timms • 1 Corinthians 13

Love is a word that is used quite often in the English language.

“I love my wife”, I love my dog”, “I love Mexican food”. In no

way do we love all three equally as much, but as loosely as the

word is used, one would start to wonder.

There are three different words in the Greek used for love.

‘Eros’ focuses on sexual desires (lust); ‘Phileo’ focuses on

brotherly friendship; and ‘Agape’ is used to express a deep,

long suffering, and constant love toward an unworthy object.

Agape is God’s wonderful and unconditional love for us.
