In today\u2019s world everyone is chasing after something, and for most people it is probably their own idea of pleasure, happiness, or prosperity. But, in reality, none of these attributes contribute to a deep sense of well being or contentment. Besides, chasing after wrong or hurtful things will only make us lonely or unhappy \u2014 or downright ashamed.1<\/sup><\/p>\n

Like the lesson learned from Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden, we humans can easily be swayed by what is pleasing to our eyes. Sometimes, navigating our complex road through life can lead us astray and we may find ourselves unknowingly following the wrong path.2<\/sup> So we need godly guidance to obtain a truly happy and meaningful life, rather than something that makes us feel good only for a moment.<\/p>\n

Many church organizations tell us to follow the Bible\u2019s Mosaic Law to assure our happiness and salvation, but that is only partially true. The Mosaic Law in the Old Testament refers to the laws given by Yahweh (YHWH<\/span>) to the Israelites after escaping their Egyptian slavery in 1445 BC.3<\/sup> These laws included, (1) the Ten Commandments given to Moses on Mount Sinai, (2) various ordinances for living in society, and (3) regulations concerning the requirements for temple priests, sacrifices, and feasts. These groups complete a total of 613 commandments4<\/sup> which cover a wide range of social demands, as well as for the treatment of animals, the environment, and much more.5<\/sup><\/p>\n

These rules and statues, given to God\u2019s people so long ago, were designed to educate his selected people into becoming a safer and more prosperous society than any other at that time. Besides setting his people apart as different from all other nations, they gave structure to the way citizens and priests must approach their God. The Mosaic Law directed the Israelites to live in such a way that reflected God\u2019s character \u2014 his goodness, holiness, and the fact that he was necessary for his people\u2019s well-being and moral excellence. His people were to reveal the righteousness and power of their God through a demonstration of how they lived.6<\/sup><\/p>\n

\"\"When Jesus arrived on the scene, some two thousand years ago, it was time for God\u2019s people to graduate from its primary schooling to a more advanced secondary education. The Old Testament law \u2014 consisting of social, moral, and religious conduct \u2014 was not eliminated but expanded to include a more spiritual level. During his ministry on earth, Jesus said the Mosaic Law was not to be abolished, but that he came to fulfill it (Matthew 5:17-18).<\/p>\n

In other words, Jesus was not presenting a rival system to the Law of Moses, but a true fulfillment of both the law and the prophets, in contrast to the self-righteous Pharisee priests\u2019 strict traditions practiced during that time.7<\/sup> As an example, when the Pharisees accused him of breaching the Sabbath law, Jesus claimed that he was fulfilling the law, because the Sabbath rest was but a symbol of the coming kingdom of God.8<\/sup><\/p>\n

Jesus redefined the Old Testament law by transitioning to a spiritual new commandment: \u201cI give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another,\u201d (John 13:34, NRSV<\/span>)<\/em>.9<\/sup> Or as he says in the Gospel of Mark, \u201cYou shall love your neighbor as yourself,\u201d (Mark 12:31)<\/em>.<\/p>\n

This new commandment summed up the Mosaic Law list, even as the old physical sacrifice of animals would soon become obsolete (Hebrews 9:12-15). After Jesus\u2019 own sacrificial death on the cross, there would no longer be a need to sacrifice animals as an atonement for sin (Luke 22:20) \u2014 Jesus was the ultimate compensation.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

What did Jesus mean by\u00a0\u201cyou should love one another?\u201d<\/h2>\n

\"\"Although in the English language we have only one word for \u2018love\u2019, the Greek language of New Testament times used seven different words, all of which are translated into English as \u2018love\u2019. So, in the above scripture (John 13:34; Mark 12:31), the meaning of \u2018love\u2019 was specific to the Greek agape<\/em>.10<\/sup><\/p>\n

This Greek word, agape<\/em>, means a universal and unconditional love, the highest form of love.11<\/sup> It isn\u2019t born just out of emotions, feelings, familiarity, or attraction, but from one\u2019s free-will as a choice. \u201cAgape<\/em> requires faithfulness, commitment, and sacrifice without expecting anything in return. This is the type of love the Bible speaks about the most. The New Testament references agape<\/em> more than 200 times.\u201d12<\/sup><\/p>\n

Just for information, here are the six other Greek words for \u2018love\u2019 that are not easily distinguishable in the English language: (1) eros<\/em>, the sexual passion or desire; (2) philia<\/em>, affection for friends or people you respect; (3) storge<\/em>, reserved for family members; (4) pragma<\/em>, the practical love shared by husband and wife over a lifetime; (5) philautia<\/em>, the good or bad love of ourselves; (6) ludas<\/em>, a playful love \u2014 the flirting and teasing fun experienced in building a relationship.13<\/sup> For more information about the seven Greek words for \u2018love\u2019, see the article \u201cLove: First Mentioned Fruit of the Spirit\u201d which is listed in References & Notes<\/em> at the end of this discourse.14<\/sup><\/p>\n

As in all of God\u2019s laws, we have free will. We can accept or reject Jesus\u2019 higher spiritual transition of love (agape<\/em>) to move from our old self to a new self.15<\/sup> For those of us that accept and practice this new guidance, we will be ready to graduate from Yahweh\u2019s secondary schooling and advance into the new world that is closer then most people believe.<\/p>\n

Putting on a \u201cnew self\u201d refers to our new position as children of God; we become new creatures, by growing more and more like the Lord Jesus Christ as we are spiritually reborn \u2014 or born again. Jesus is our example and the spiritual guide for our lives.16<\/sup> \u201cIn a coming day, when we stand before the Judgment Seat of Christ, we will be judged not by how much better our lives were than others but rather by how our life measures up to the life of the Lord Jesus himself.\u201d17<\/sup><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/h2>\n

Here are a couple of other important things about \u2018love\u2019 expressed as agape. First is that it is inconsistent and hypocritical to claim we love Jesus while not loving other Christian sisters and brothers. Secondly, we can\u2019t claim we love our Lord if we don\u2019t obey him. These ideas are all connected.18<\/sup><\/p>\n

Music selected to reflect this article\u2019s main thought of agape \u2018love\u2019 is \u201cLove with All Your Heart\u201d by The Isaacs<\/em>. Originally from Hendersonville, Tennessee USA, these artists are a bluegrass Southern gospel group that got their start playing on the Grand Ole Opry 30 years ago. They continue to play more than 100 dates a year and often tour internationally.19<\/sup> Selected lyrics are below and a link to their music video is listed in References & Notes<\/em>.20<\/sup><\/p>\n

\"\"Love don\u2019t see color, love don\u2019t make war<\/em>
Love don\u2019t hold grudges and it don\u2019t keep score<\/em>
Love is forgiving in spite of the pain<\/em>
It may not be easy, but it\u2019s never in vain<\/em><\/p>\n

Sometimes you think it\u2019s just too hard to do<\/em>
To love your neighbor and your enemy too<\/em>
But love is stronger than the towers of hate<\/em>
You give it power when you give it away<\/em><\/p>\n
