God's Special Love


There are a number of different Greek words that are translated ‘love’ in the New Testament. When the Bible talks about God’s love, it uses the Greek word ‘agapao‘. This love is different to that of brotherly love, or sexual love. It is the kind of love that is used of God when He sent His Son to die for our sins (John 3:16). This is a very special sacrificial kind of love that puts others ahead of self and is motivated for another’s good. His love for man was so great in redemption that He allowed ‘His only begotten’ Jesus to be reviled of men, spat upon, whipped, and finally crucified. This was the supreme demonstration of His love to man. If you ever doubt God’s love, just reflect upon what Jesus did at Calvary.
