Hate in the Bible: Luke 14:26
The strong wording in this passage is striking--does God really expect us to hate our own family? It's a rhetorical device used to emphasize the all-consuming passion with which we are to commit to God--set against God's love for us, any other emotion, no matter how positive, pales in comparison.

"Love One Another" : John 13:34-35
How can people tell we are Christians when they see us? Not by our words, or our appearance, or by the possessions we own. Jesus tells us that it is by our love that we will be recognized as Christ-followers.

"Perfect" in the BIble: Matthew 5:47-48
Christians aren't just called to behave well--they're called to behave perfectly. Anybody can be nice to somebody who's nice back to them... but only the spirit of Jesus can empower us to show true love to those who hurt or persecute us. That's the type of love Christ calls us to embody.

Rejoicing in the Bible: 1 Corinthians 13:6
This short passage shows us another characteristic of godly love: it doesn't focus on or enjoy evil, but it thrives on what is good and true.

"Love is patient" in the Bible: 1 Corinthians 13:4
This is perhaps the most famous passage about love in the Bible--chances are you've heard it at weddings and church services many times. But it remains a profound reminder of what Biblical love looks like when practiced in daily life, and a model for the type of behavior that should be evident in our lives and relationships.

"God is love" in the Bible: 1 John 4:8
If God is love, shouldn't it be the primary goal of every believer to reflect that love in our lives and relationships? If we say and do all the "right things" but somehow, in the process, fail to demonstrate love, there's a serious disconnect between us and God.

SermonIndex.net audio sermons: 1 Corinthians 13, Romans 5:5, 1 Cor 13 (version 1), Leonard Ravenhill
This sermon focuses on God's kind of love from the verses written by Paul in 1 Corinthians 13 and Romans 5:5. The majority of the sermon discusses the first half of 1 Cor 13; specifically verses 1 through 8. There are many old hymns and writings quoted by Brother Len that focus on the person and love of God and His Christ intertwined in the message, quite a few from Wesley. There is also some time spent on some of the past saints that exemplified this love.
