Bible Verses About Love

Love is a central theme in the Bible, reflecting God's very nature. Scripture emphasizes love as the greatest commandment, calling believers to love God and others wholeheartedly. This love is patient, kind, and sacrificial, mirroring the way God loves humanity. Through love, believers fulfill God's law and create meaningful connections that reflect His glory. In every circumstance, love remains a powerful expression of faith and obedience.

Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.

Romans 13:10

For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

Galatians 5:14

And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

1 Corinthians 13:13

Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment:
because as he is, so are we in this world. There is no fear in love;
but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment.
He that feareth is not made perfect in love. We love him, because he first loved us.
If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not
his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.

1 John 4:17-21

Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth
is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God;
for God is love. In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God
sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. Herein is love,
not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

1 John 4:7-11

1 Corinthians 13:4-7 (KJV)

Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
