Love God

You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.

Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’

And the second, like it, is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

“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.”

And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging 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, but have not love, I am nothing.

And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.

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. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away.

For we know in part and we prophesy in part.

But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.

When I was a child, I spoke 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 in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.

And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

whom having not seen you love. Though now you do not see Him, yet believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory,

He who does not love does not know God, for God is love.

And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him.
