Luke 6:27
King James Version
28 Jul 2026
“But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,”
ἀγαπάω
Not the love of emotion or feeling — this is the love of will and choice. God did not love the world because it was loveable. He loved it because that is who He is. Agapao is love that gives everything without expecting anything back.
