Monday, April 29

This is our last week in this study.  I hope you have been edified by the time you spent here.

Love.  This is the goal of all our diligence - to love as God loves, to love as God is.  Just what is this kind of love?

Today's assignment:
Find a definition of the word translated "love" in this 2 Peter 1.
Explain how it is different from "brotherly kindness."

If I understand it right, "brotherly affection" is the Greek word philadelphia.

The word "love" that Peter uses here is agape, which encompasses benevolence,goodwill,esteem, generosity, kindness and devotion.
