"Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
And THOU SHALT LOVE the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. And these words, which I command thee this day, SHALL BE IN THINE HEART:" (Deu 6:4-6)
~ What is Love?
Simply read 1Cor 13:1-13 to AVOID its misinterpretation. Here are some of the definitions of love/charity (vs 4-8):
Love:-
1...Suffereth long, and is kind.
2...Envieth not.
3...Vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil.
4...Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth.
5...Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
6...Never faileth.
~ Why You Can't But Fall Into tHis Love.
"And it shall be, when the LORD thy God shall have brought thee into the land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and goodly cities, which THOU BUILDEDST NOT, And houses full of all good things, which THOU FILLEDST NOT, and wells digged, which THOU DIGGEDST NOT, vineyards and olive trees, which THOU PLANTEDST NOT; when thou shalt have eaten and be full;" (Deu 6:10-11)
There is no other way around this, you either LEARN to love or not. This love is asking for All of you, to give All to you. You can't love anyone greater than this. Thank God, it's now both ways! He first loved us, and now we love Him, because the Holy Spirit is helping us divinely love the LORD too. It's a love that must fully occupy your whole being: YOU JUST HAVE TO FALL IN LOVE WITH THE LORD!
~ A Loveless World.
This is simply "a world" devoid of the LORD's presence.
You don't want to be a citizen of this "loveless world" or "kingdom of darkness" in this world. Where you want to be is in the Kingdom of God and of His Christ, where the glorious light of God, filled with the divine love of God is in full operation.
If you love God by the help of the Holy Spirit, YOU WILL NEVER WANT IT TO END. If you are yet to love God, you need the help of the Holy Spirit to rightly do so.
