Eternal life or death choice

Agape (divine

love) towards

one another

must be the

foundation of

our behaviour as

disciples of Jesus

(34) A new commandment I give unto you, that ye love one another; even as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. (35) By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. John 13:34-35 ASV (12) This is my commandment, that ye love one another, even as I have loved you. (13) Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. (14) Ye are my friends, if ye do the things which I command you. John 15:12-14 ASV (1) Brethren, even if a man be overtaken in any trespass, ye who are spiritual, restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness; looking to thyself, lest thou also be tempted. (2) Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ. (3) For if a man thinketh himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself. Galatians 6:1-3 ASV

These things I command you, that

ye may love one another. John

15:17 ASV

“above all things being fervent in your love among yourselves; for love covereth a multitude of sins:” 1 Peter 4:8 ASV (19) My brethren, if any among you err from the truth, and one convert him; (20) let him know, that he who converteth a sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall cover a multitude of sins. James 5:19-20 ASV Take heed to thyself, and to thy teaching. Continue in these things; for in doing this thou shalt save both thyself and them that hear thee. 1 Timothy 4:16 ASV He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; But he that harpeth on a matter separateth chief friends. Proverbs 17:9 ASV (8) Again, a new commandment write I unto you, which thing is true in him and in you; because the darkness is passing away, and the true light already shineth. (9) He that saith he is in the light and hateth his brother, is in the darkness even until now. (10) He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is no occasion of stumbling in him. (11) But he that hateth his brother is in the darkness, and walketh in the darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because the darkness hath blinded his eyes. 1 John 2:8-11 ASV

If I speak with the

tongues of men and of

angels, but have not

love, I am become

sounding brass, or a

clanging cymbal.

(2) And if I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. (3) And if I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profiteth me nothing. (4) Love suffereth long, and is kind; love envieth not; love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, (5) doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not its own, is not provoked, taketh not account of evil; (6) rejoiceth not in unrighteousness, but rejoiceth with the truth; (7) beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. (8) Love never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall be done away; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall be done away. 1 Corinthians 13:1-8 ASV (11) For this is the message which ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another: (12) not as Cain was of the evil one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his works were evil, and his brother's righteous. (13) Marvel not, brethren, if the world hateth you. (14) We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not abideth in death. John 3:11-14 ASV

The wealthy who does NOT share his

wealth with the needy does not have

the love of God in him.

(17) But whoso hath the world's goods, and beholdeth his brother in need, and shutteth up his compassion from him, how doth the love of God abide in him? (18) My little children, let us not love in word, neither with the tongue; but in deed and truth. (19) Hereby shall we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our heart before him: (20) because if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things. (21) Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have boldness toward God; (22) and whatsoever we ask we receive of him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight. (23) And this is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he gave us commandment. (24) And he that keepeth his commandments abideth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he gave us. 1 John 3:17-24 ASV

hatred between brothers is murder

(15) Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him. (16) Hereby know we love, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. 1 John 3:15-16 ASV

AGAPE LOVE COVERS A LOT OF SINS

Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she

loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.  Luke 7:47
