He who does not love does not know God, for God is love. 1 John 4:8


Strongs Definition:

Love - Strong’s G26 ; Agape - Noun


  1. affection, good will, love, benevolence, brotherly love
  2. love feasts


Here is another way the Bible defines the word (noun) love.


For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome. 1 John 5:3





He who does not love does not know God, for God is love. 1 John 4:8


Love - Strong’s G25 ; agapao - verb
The KJV translates Strong's G25 in the following manner:love (135x), beloved (7x).

  1. of persons
    1. to welcome, to entertain, to be fond of, to love dearly
  2. of things
    1. to be well pleased, to be contented at or with a thing


“If you love Me, keep My commandments. John 14:15
