- 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.
Dear children,
let us love not in word or speech
but in deed and truth.Who is this King of glory?
The Lord of hosts:
he is the King of glory. Selah I have given you a command. Be strong and brave, do not be afraid nor dismayed. I, the Lord, your God, will be with you wherever you go.Next verse!With image
