19 We love because God first loved us.
2 And live and act lovingly, as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up to death on our behalf as an offering and sacrifice to God, yielding a fragrant odor.
14 and the grace of our Lord came to me in overflowing fulness, conferring faith on me and the love which is in Christ Jesus.
16 to grant you –in accordance with the wealth of His glorious perfections– to be strengthened by His Spirit with power penetrating to your inmost being.
17 I pray that Christ may make His home in your hearts through your faith; so that having your roots deep and your foundations strong, in love, you may become mighty to grasp the idea,
18 as it is grasped by all God's people, of the breadth and length, the height and depth–
19 yes, to attain to a knowledge of the knowledge-surpassing love of Christ, so that you may be made complete in accordance with God's own standard of completeness.
9 As the Father has loved me, I have also loved you: continue in my love.
8 But God gives proof of His love to us in Christ's dying for us while we were still sinners.
12 This is my commandment to you, to love one another as I have loved you.
23 »If any one loves me,« replied Jesus, »he will obey my teaching; and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.
34 A new commandment I give you, to love one another; that as I have loved you, you also may love one another.
13 No one has greater love than this–a man laying down his life for his friends.
