Are You A Refection Of God's Multidimensional Love?

Did you know that the original Biblical text has four separate words, Agape, Phileo, Storge and Aeros, while our English bibles have only one word, Love? Why is this important? Well, so many of our societal dilemmas arise, out of our misunderstanding of God's multidimensional Love for us. The Bible even says,

"...in order that you may be fully able to comprehend, with all the saints, what [is] the breadth and length and depth and height; thereby, knowing the love of the Messiah which surpasses knowledge; and be filled with all the fullness of God.


As part of the Western Culture, most of us are afraid to tell someone, that we love them, because of this misunderstanding. Most of us think, "SEX", when we say, "Love". However, the Biblical representation of God's Multidimensional Love, not only reflect God's Love for Us, but how we should Love one another. This is reflected in how our marriage relationships should be conducted. That is why God's People fight for the Biblical Representation of Marriage.

Every day of our lives, we need to ask ourselves, do we

Agape our wife/husband? (be totally and unconditionally committed, willing to give our life for them, become spiritually one with each other)

Phileo our wife/husband? (be Friendly, constantly develop your friendship/relationship)

Storge our wife/husband? (treat them as family, protective and encouraging their growth)

Aeros our wife/husband? (Romantic and sexual commitment)

This is how God views Love and how God Loves Us. Have you ever wondered why so many marriages end up in divorce? It's because most we don't Agape, Phileo, Storge and Aeros each other. We just love, according to our own definition.

....and that's what you'll find, When You Search For The Truth.
