09/07/16 LOVE IS INTERACTIVE

09/07/16 LOVE IS INTERACTIVE

* Love is not simply an emotion, enjoyed by one person.
* Love is an expression, extended to another person.

(Notice how the Holy Bible says this).

1 Corinthians 13:4-7 (BBE)
(4) Love is never tired of waiting; love is kind; love has no envy; love has no high opinion of itself, love has no pride;
(5) Love's ways are ever fair, it takes no thought for itself; it is not quickly made angry, it takes no account of evil;
(6) It takes no pleasure in wrongdoing, but has joy in what is true;
(7) Love has the power of undergoing all things, having faith in all things, hoping all things.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7 (KJV)
(4) Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
(5) Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
(6) Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
(7) Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

(I included two translations. They both say the same thing, but the BBE translation is in today's vernacular, and is in some sense is more accurate. The Greek word "Agape" should be translated LOVE and not CHARITY.)

Now, be sure to go back over the passage and drink in the truths.
