- Jesus answered him,
“Whoever loves me will keep my word,
and my Father will love him,
and we will come to him
and make our abode with him.” - Adulterers! Do you not know that love of the world results in enmity with God? Therefore, whoever wishes to be a lover of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
- Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the Church and gave himself up for her in order to sanctify her by cleansing her with water and the word.
- Do not love the world
or what is in the world.
If anyone does love the world,
the love of the Father is not in him. - For God so loved the world
that he gave his only Son,
so that everyone who believes in him
may not perish
but may attain eternal life. - We have come to know
and to believe in
the love that God has for us.
God is love,
and whoever abides in love
abides in God,
and God in him. - Love cannot result in any harm to the neighbor; therefore, love is the fulfillment of the Law.
- If you love me,
you will keep my commandments. - Above all, maintain the fervor of your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins.
- In love there is no fear;
indeed, perfect love casts out fear,
because fear has to do with punishment,
and whoever fears
has not yet achieved perfection in love. - Thus there are three things that endure: faith, hope, and love,
and the greatest of these is love. - And now it is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me. The life I live now in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself up for me.
- Father, allow those you have given me
to be with me where I am,
so that they may behold my glory,
which you have bestowed on me
because you loved me
before the foundation of the world. - No one has ever seen God,
but if we love one another,
God abides in us,
and his love is made complete in us. - It was not their own swords that won them the land,
nor did their own arms make them victorious;
rather, it was your right hand and your arm
and the light of your face,
because you loved them. - May mercy, peace, and love be granted you in abundance.
- Everything that you do should be done in love.
- If you keep my commandments,
you will remain in my love,
just as I have kept my Father’s commandments
and remain in his love. - Hatred stirs up strife,
but love overlooks all offenses. - Love is patient;
love is charitable.
Love is not envious;
it does not have an inflated opinion of itself;
it is not filled with its own importance.
Love is never rude;
it does not seek its own advantage.
It is not prone to anger;
neither does it brood over setbacks. - May the Lord cause your love to increase and overflow for one another and for everyone else, just as our love does for you.
- Over all these put on love, which is the bond of perfection.
- The second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’
- You are all-beautiful, my love,
without the slightest blemish. - No one can have greater love
than to lay down his life for his friends.
