Amen Sproul. We are to love our neighbours and our enemies, as Christ our Saviour did. May we bless and praise His holy name forevermore. God bless you all.
We have no ability to access AGAPE by ourselves, through our own effort... None! All we can ever access by ourselves, by our own efforts here on Earth, is this lower, limited kind of human brotherly love. And it is only if we earnestly desire and ask Logos (God) for His supernatural love, AGAPE, can we ever obtain it. This AGAPE through Logos (God) is what life and eternity is all about, because Logos (God) is AGAPE, the most beautiful, priceless, unlimited treasure, available to all who earnestly desire it. It is the key to life, and to all of eternity. Without IT a person's religion/belief system is pointless/meaningless.,
@@tishaproduction ... it has an even deeper meaning in Greek culture that pre-dates the Christian era. But also has been translated, interpreted as Christ... the word, the prime mover, the intelligence behind our world/universe... as in: "In the beginning was the Word."
And yet the Calvinistic understanding of God (who is Love -Agape) teaches that he will torment forever those who do not respond to His Love in this lifetime. Something is wrong with this picture.
Wonderful!, I cried when Jesus asked SIMON, DO YOU AGAPE ME?

Can anyone send a link to theologians as great as RC? For research purposes. Many thanks
What about the 4th Greek word for love - Storge or familial love.? How come RC mentions only 3.
the list could go on for many things, the love for pets, enemies, partner, siblings, literally Neighboors, etc...
That Greek verb is not used in the NT in the context of God's love.
John 21:15
Do you “agapas” me more than…
I don’t know why R.C. Sproul uses the word “agape” in this text in John 21:15

Logos means word and refers to the son of God
