In the English Language; the use of the word love has  many and varied meanings...

 Love - is a warm affection, attachment, liking or a fondness.   Yet the deepest expression of love; is a self-sacrificial form best exemplified in the life of Christ! 

  If we want to see how "True Love",  is fully expressed in the world it would have to be in the life of one person  Jesus Christ!! 

 At the height of his ministry, he gave two of the greatest expressions of Love and concern ever spoken:

 " You shall Love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind, with all your strength...  Then you shall love your neighbor as yourself! "   

The individual is charged to " Love your neighbor as  your self, " both kindred as well as stranger...

 Yeshua, Loved God with all his inter being, heart, soul, mind and strength; then also expressed this with an outer love for his neighbor; ( which included  everyone in the immediate vicinity)  plus a true and genuine love of himself!

 He confirmed the source of this love: " As the Father loved me, so have I loved you; abide in my love."

 Then he gave a simplified commandment which covered all the rest, " I give you a new commandment that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another!"  

Jesus lived this out to the very end!
