by Bill Elliff July 05, 2024

God has always been very clear about this: the greatest thing is LOVE. Not “phileo,” brotherly love. And not “eros,” self-seeking love, but “agape love, which is that God-quality that always responds in self-sacrifice. It is a love only found in God and is the essence of His nature.
