What is Love?

You don't know Jesus then as He said all this...

"But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves. Woe unto you, ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor! Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold? And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty. Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift? Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon. And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein. And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess. Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness. Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets. Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers. Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell? Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city: That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar..." -- (Matthew 23:13-35 KJV)

Aha...that explains a lot...

Roar then Lion.

Nice post.

I was talking about you Op...but thanx...! (I understand)

Can you also answer my previous questions?

it's the largest thing in the universe;

Thread: what is the largest thing in the universe?

"Everyone says love hurts, but that isn't true. Loneliness hurts. Rejection hurts. Losing someone hurts. Envy hurts. Everyone gets these things confused with love, but in reality love is the only thing in this world that covers up all pain and makes someone feel wonderful again. Love is the only thing in this world that does not hurt."

Sorry, I didn't see that you asked a question.

1. Justice is the idea of righting a wrong by those that are/will/may harm others. If someone IS harmed then a price is demanded by those who have been wronged. This is commonly called Vengeance and should be left to God since God is able to bring Justice with pure righteousness. Love embraces Justice but also with Mercy.

a. To forgive someone who wronged you is Grace and Mercy, out of Love
b. For a judge the purpose is to protect others by a system of laws. So a Judge will follow the written Law not out of Love but out of Duty. A Judge will not just dismiss a criminal unless those who have been wronged forgive them which could be a single person or even the government itself.

2. It could be that in your mind the other woman was is in more need than your mother at that moment.

If anyone can please pin this topic

:hkyrukryuikryuii:

1. So you are against justice being done by people? (judges)
But duty is above love?

2. So mind = instinct?

Maybe we just should live our precious lives and enjoy it!

We will never know what the real rules are...we can only believe and hope that what we believe in is true.

Thank you...

1. No and No
2. No

Sorry I don't have a clue as to what you are trying to say

Beat me to it!

Think I just pissed myself laughing!

love is knowledge.

"The indians won't bother you anymore..they will be afraid, on the account that you have been touched"

Okay then. Don't you think it's strange that so many people have different believes?
Why do you believe what you believe?
Did your parents teach you or did it just come to you?
Do you ever doubt your own words?
Are you feeling happy?

What if the TRUTH is not true? Did you even ever thought of that? Or are you getting tired of defending anyway?

I love you for being you...!

Sorry for being an AC but I never was...

You don't say

You are right, I am speaking from my heart of feeling and opinion and I really didn't mean to send any negativity your way. I'm not looking to fight. I think you're doing an awesome job.

Keep up the good work and keep on sending out that Love!

NO really, you don't say!

What is love?

Love is two things. One is order, this is the greater. Order means treating things as you are meant to. The second is forgiveness. When the order has been violated, this enables the balance to be reestablished. If you do not treat those you love as you should, you do not love them, if you do not forgive them when they search for the order to be established, you do not love them as well. This is the universal rule for all creation. If there is a creator, he is exempt from this as he is set apart from creation. This is God and one can only speculate from the data within the law (order) of what he is like. If it seems that the law for man is to love one another and the rest of creation. This increases the synergy, a greater benefit to the whole and the individual as part of the whole. One can speculate that God is love from the law that holds creation. If one sets the creator in the place above creation as creator, one embraces love and the greater synergy is established. The more synergy the more one is able to evolve, transcending self and selfishness. If one believes they are God, or above the law that he made, this is delusion, madness as in creation there is order or law. The world we live in presently is a product of this delusion. If all obeyed the law of love what more would be needed for all? What is the law of love, to love creator with all and creation as yourself.

Imagine the world of love where all things evolve together worshipping truth, God. Compare this to the present one where love of self is encouraged. Lesser gods ruled by greater, through manipulation, lies, strength, etc. in the knowledge of good and evil (cause and effect) seeking an endless delusion where they actually think they have a chance of becoming like the creator or co creators, or whatever other madness, setting self above creation and the creator, his law, order and truth.

Baby dont hurt me no more...

It's the unconditional pure innocence of a child when the babe sees only you and not the world which the child was born into.

That babe never judges for the child does not know what that is

The Divine Law of Loves signature residing within the child until the world that the babe was born into corrupts the pure innocence that protects the child

WE were all once that child

Some of US still are

ohn 3:16 makes clear that the love of Messiah is made manifest on the cross.

1Jn 3:16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

Joh 15:13 Greater love than this has no one, that anyone should lay down his soul for his friends.

Joh 10:15 Even as the Father knows Me, I also know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep.

Messiah lays down His life for His sheep. In this portion of Scripture, Messiah likens Himself to the ‘door’. Through His sacrifice, Messiah has opened up the door to eternity. He has pierced the veil that delivers us from death and allows us to enter in the Kingdom of Light. He has ‘pierced the fabric’ of time-space…

The Hebrew word for Love is a word that shows expressions and actions toward the family, which one was privileged with. Its root comes from a pictograph that represents one who is looking at a great sight with his hands raised as when saying behold. The combination of the pictures mean “look toward the house” or “provide for the family”.

One does not choose the household which one is born into (including tribe, parents, children and wife ((as marriages were often arranged by the father)), it is a gift from God. These gifts are seen as a privilege and are to be cherished and protected.

So the pictograph meaning of love, is “alef” which is an ox head, and means Ox, power, strength, leader first, followed by “hay”, which is picture of arms extended, and means to Behold, or to reveal. And then there is “bet”, which is a picture of a tent, and means a tent, or a house.

The first and last letters spell out the word for Father (alef – bet) אב and the middle letter ה is a picture of a man with outstretched arms. The Love of the Father is revealed through the Messiah on the tree, gathering all mankind back to their Creator.

i like this explanation.

God.
"In highest Truth, love is all there is, all there was, and all there ever will be. When you move
into the absolute, you move into love."

Medusa was a Gorgon. Medusa was a great beauty, but became vain and arrogant. Because of her arrogance and vanity, Medusa was transformed into an ugly woman with snakes for hair, and whom ever she gazed on would turn to stone.

Being turned to stone is figurative for the inability to act due to fear. The woman was so beautiful people wished to please her, but owing to her contemptible nature whatever they did was met with displeasure eventually leading to a passivity where the captive fears to act uncertain of the result.

Another kind of beauty beheads. It is the Schopenhauerian will-less-ness, brought on by seeing that which is “timeless”. One does not act because there is no sensuous requirement. One gazes on beauty, and there is nothing to be done, since knowledge has become the act, and any ownership of action would betray the beauty. One’s head is in the clouds.

"Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.”

"God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”

So it is not the rational mind, nor the carnal mind that knows love.

That garden sweet, that lady fair,
And all sweet shapes and odours there,
In truth have never passed away:
'Tis we, 'tis ours, are changed; not they.

For love, and beauty, and delight,
There is no death nor change: their might
Exceeds our organs, which endure
No light, being themselves obscure.

"For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God."


"And if I drive out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your people drive them out? So then, they will be your judges. But if I drive out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you. Or again, how can anyone enter a strong man's house and carry off his possessions unless he first ties up the strong man? Then he can rob his house."
