"A new commandment I give unto you, That ye
love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one
another." John 13:34
|
"If ye love me, keep my commandments."
John 14:14
|
"He that hath my commandments, and keepeth
them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my
Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him."
John 14:21
|
"Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man
love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will

|
"Though I speak with the
tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as
sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of
prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I
have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I
am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though
I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me
nothing. Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity
vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly,
seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth
not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth
all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Charity never faileth:
but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be
tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish
away. For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. But when that which is
perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. When I was
a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a
child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see
through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but
then shall I know even as also I am known. And now abideth faith, hope,
charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity."
1 Corinthians 13:1-13
|
"But God commendeth his love toward us, in
that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."
Romans 5:8
|
"Who shall separate us from
the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or
famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, For thy sake
we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the
slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through
him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor
angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to
come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to
separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Romans 8:35-39
|
"Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor
that which is evil; cleave to that which is good."
Romans 12:9

which God hath prepared for them that love him."

availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by
love." Galatians 5:6
|
"But the fruit of the Spirit
is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness,
temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ's have
crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the
Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit."
Galatians 5:22-25
|
"According as he hath chosen us in him
before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without
blame before him in love." Ephesians 1:4
|
"But God, who is rich in
mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in
sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And
hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in
Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches
of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. For by grace
are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of
God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship,
created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained
that we should walk in them." Ephesians
2:4-10
|
"That Christ may dwell in your
hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, May be able
to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth,
and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that
ye might be filled with all the fulness of God. Now unto him that is able
to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to
the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ
Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen." Ephesians
3:17-21

fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind."

temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life,
which the Lord hath promised to them that love him."

"Love not the world, neither the things
that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father
is not in him." 1 John 2:15
|
"In this was manifested the
love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into
the world, that we might live through him. Herein is love, not that we
loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation
for our sins." 1 John 4:9-10
|
"For this is the love of God, that we keep
his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous."
