The apostle John is the real expert on true love. He writes about it more than any other author in the Bible. He alone records Jesus's new commandment to love one another in a new wayโlike Jesus loves us (John 13:34โ35). In 1 John 4:7โ21 alone, love (agape in Greek) is mentioned 27 times.

Advent 2022 Second Sunday: Love
My advent meditation is inspired by my recent study of 2 Corinthians which ended with a beautiful benedictionโthe only one that mentions all three persons of the Trinity. Last week, we looked at grace. Today, we focus on love.
