Louise teaches on agape love to start with, a type of love we don’t usually teach.
Here’s a good description of “agape love” from AI.
“Agape love is the highest form of love—unconditional, sacrificial, and rooted in the will to seek another’s good, regardless of merit or reciprocation. It is the love God shows to humanity and the love Christians are called to embody.
🕊️ What Is Agape Love?
- Agape (Greek: ἀγάπη) refers to selfless, willful, and sacrificial love that desires the highest good for others.
- It is not based on emotion, attraction, or obligation, but on a deliberate choice to love—even when it’s hard or undeserved.
- In Christian theology, agape is the love God has for humanity, demonstrated most clearly through Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross (John 15:13; Romans 5:8).”
And here is more Scripture:
Biblical Foundations
- 1 Corinthians 13 is often cited as the clearest description of agape love:
- “Love is patient, love is kind… It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”
- 1 John 4:8 declares, “God is love,” emphasizing that agape is not just something God does—it is who He is.
- Jesus commands His followers to love with agape: “Love your enemies” (Matthew 5:44), and “Love one another as I have loved you” (John 13:34).
