The world has officially tried to redefine the word "love" to wrongly mean whatever they think love should mean or whatever they want love to mean. Most prominent dictionaries, for instance, such as Merriam-Webster, Dictionary.com, TheFreeDictionary.com, and etc define or similarly define love as a deep, tender, ineffable feeling of affection and solicitude toward another person, such as that arising from kinship, recognition of attractive qualities, or a sense of underlying oneness. In some other cases, atheist, who do not believe that God exist, may even be found saying that love does not exist as they ask such questions like "What is love?", "How can love be defined?", "How can love be gauged?", and "Where is Love?". Unfortunately, for common dictionaries that define love as an intense emotion only, for some atheist who suggest that love does not exist, and for whoever else that agrees with the redefined version of love from each one are all currently wrong because each one has tried to define love without God. See, if any person or thing attempts to define and explain love without God; the person or thing will most likely define and explain love incorrectly. God is love because truthfully God equals love and love equals God, so trying explain love without explaining God will not work (*John 4:8). Therefore, if any dictionaries or atheist (male or female), try to define, try to explain love, or try to denounce love then please be cautious of what one may see or hear from each one. Especially, from an atheist, of course, who does not believe in God and says that love does not exist because he or she says they cannot comprehend love; love is God, so if atheist do not believe in God then they will most likely not believe in nor correctly understand love either.
Love is shown through the spirit, actions, beliefs, emotions, knowledge, and thoughts of God all from God. Love is God and God is Love, so God did not have to create love. 1 John 4:8 from the bible says, whoever does not love does not know God, because God is Love". Love would not exist without God and love has to be placed into one's heart by God only. Hence, atheist or any other unborn-again people will almost never be able to fully understand love without God. Understanding love without God truly will be difficult even if one experienced love from God because their hearts are not one with God. Christians, both men and women, who are born-again, need to own up to being the only people who can truly exhibit love correctly because they know God and they have the spirit of God on the inside of them. Love will always remain unconditional and able to be shown from born-again Christians. 1 John 4:8 from the bible says," Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love". Christians are love and can love unconditionally with the help of God. Christians display their love when they follow the word of God, through marriage, they give to others in need, or yield to the spirit of God inside of them. All Christians need understand and help teach each other about love, so each Christian can know. God gives unconditional love which means that his love has no limitations, his love does not require any deeds or circumstances, and that God loves completely. God's unconditional love for one will never stop for any reason. God cannot and will not threaten to retract his love if one does not walk or talk a certain way (or even one does not love him back). There's nothing one can do to stop God's love - God loves regardless. God did not ask the world to," love him before he sacrificed his own son". God sacrificed his own son so that those who believed in him would not perish with no requirements needed (*John 3:16).
Do not believe the Merriam-Webster dictionary and so on that tries to define love as an emotion that one only gives to or shows toward another person that stems from kinship, recognition of attractive qualities, and etc. Consequently, if love only arrived from recognition of attractive qualities for instance, then that would mean that love only stood as a conditional feeling right? Meaning that one would have to be recognized as attractive to a certain person in order for the person love one. Now (since emotions change rather easily), if that certain person one day just got tired and become unattracted to one for any reason then love, since love is stated as conditional, would suddenly stop. So, call the dictionary's version of love infatuation for a certain period of time or a trade of actions for emotions - not love. Eventually, the happy feeling will wear off and God's knowledge, love, and word will needed to keep the love flowing unconditionally.
Notes:
-Any word with, * in front of it, references to a bible scripture. The "New International Version (NIV)" bible was used for this blog.
- An atheist (or any person who does not know about love) who says that love does not exist should not really surprise one or anyone else. However, if one does not know then it possibly could be surprising.
-The world does not seem to care or realize that they are trying to take, redefine, and utilize God's creations, terms, applications, and etc. Then they denounce something God created or made, while ignoring that it was not made for them to use without God, once it does not benefit them in the way they thought it would or wanted it to.
-1 John 4:7-11 - Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love love does not know God, because God is love. This how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
-The closest many people have come to unconditional it seems is with their children. People seem to love their children no through tough times and good times no matter what.
-One can only imagine how many marriage have been broken due to people getting married mainly based off their their emotions (Mainly the happy and affection feelings)? Also, man and woman can love.
