Agape
Agape is part of a series of paintings that I am working on, taking one word from the Bible and studying it’s deeper meanings which can lead to understanding the deep mysteries of God. When ever God spoke, He created things into existence and they became truth and law. Words create things. The words we say today, prophesy our tomorrows.
Agape (ah-gah-pay) is Greek for perfect, unselfish, unconditional love. It is the highest form of love and can only be achieved with the help of God. Mankind’s love is generally selfish in nature, based on feelings instead of decisions.
“Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.” Luke 10:27
1 John 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. 9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. 10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. 12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. 19 We love him, because he first loved us. 20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen? 21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.
There are two words in this drawing. Can you find them?
