Sanctification Verses: Love

Proverbs 8:17 (The Scriptures–1998) “I love those who love me, And those who earnestly seek me do find me.

 

Proverbs 10:12 (The Scriptures–1998) Hatred stirs up strife, But love covers all transgressions.

 

Proverbs 17:9 (The Scriptures–1998) He who covers a transgression seeks love, But he who repeats a matter separates intimate friends.

 

Matthew 22:36 (AENT) "Teacher, which Commandment in Torah is the greatest?" 37 And Y'shua said to him, that "You should love Master YHWH your Elohim with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might and with all your mind." 38 This is the first and the greatest Commandment. 39 And the second is like it.  That 'You should love your neighbor as yourself.' 40 On these two commandments hang Torah and the prophets."

 

Mark 12:28 (AENT) And one of the scribes drew near and heard them disputing and saw that he answered them the matter well.  And he asked, "What is the first Commandment of all of them?" 29 And Y'shua said to him, "The first of all the Commandments is 'Hear O Israel.  Master YHWH our Elohim is one. 30 And you should love Master YHWH your Elohim with all of your heart, and with all of your soul, and with all of your mind, and with all of your strength.'  This is the first Commandment. 31 And the second that is like it is that, 'you should love your neighbor as yourself.  There is no other Commandment greater than these."

 

Luke 6:35 (AENT) But love your enemies, and do good to them.  And lend and do not cut off the hope of man, and great will be your reward.  And you will be the sons of the Most High because he is pleasant to the evil and the cruel.

 

John 13:35 (AENT) By this all men will know that you are my disciples if there will be love among you one to another.

 

John 14:15 (AENT) If you love me, keep my Commandments.

 

John 15:9 (AENT) As my Father has loved me, so too I have loved you.  Abide in my love. 10 If you keep my Commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept the Commandments of my Father, and I abide in His love. 11 I have spoken these things with you that my joy may be in you and that your joy might be full in you. 12 This is my Commandment, that you love one another just as I have loved you. 13 There is no love that is greater than this that a man lay down his life for the sake of his friends. 14 You are my friends if you do all that I commanded you.

 

Romans 12:9 (AENT) Let not your love be full of deceit: but be haters of evil things and adherers to good things. 10 Be affectionate to your brothers: and love one another.  Be foremost in honoring one another.

 

Romans 13:8 (AENT) And owe nothing to anyone; but to love one another. For he that loves his neighbor, has properly understood Torah. 9 For this likewise, which it says: "You will not kill; nor commit adultery; nor steal; nor covet;" and if there is any other Commandment, it is completed in this sentence: "You will love your neighbor as yourself." 10 Love does no evil to one's neighbor because love is the fulfillment of Torah.

 

Galatians 5:13 (AENT) You who are called to liberty, brothers, do not use your liberty for things of the flesh, but in love serve each other. 14 For the entire Torah is properly understood in one Word/Manifestation, "You will love your neighbor as you would yourself."

 

1 Corinthians 13:1 (AENT) If I could speak in every tongue of men, and in that of Messengers, and there should be no love in me, I should be like brass that resounds, or the cymbal that makes a noise. 2 And if there should be in me (the gift of) prophecy, and I should understand all the mysteries, and every science; and if there should be in me all faith, so that I could move mountains, and love should not be in me, I should be nothing. 3 And if I should feed out to the poverty stricken all I possess; and if I should give my body so that I may boast; and there should be no love in me, I gain nothing. Love is patient, and is kind; love is not envious; love does not shout loudly; and is not boastful; 5 And does nothing that causes shame; and seeks not her own; is not passionate; and thinks no evil; 6 (It) does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 (It) bears all things, believes all things, hopes for all, and endures all. 8 Love will never cease. But prophesying will end; and tongues will be stopped; and knowledge will disappear.

 

Ephesians 4:2 (AENT) With all lowliness of mind and quietness and long suffering; and that you be forbearing one towards another in love. 3 And be earnest to keep the unity of the Spirit in a bond of peace;

 

Colossians 3:12 (AENT) Therefore, Set Apart and beloved, as the elect of Elohim, put on yourselves the compassions and tenderness, and graciousness and humbleness of mind, and gentleness and long suffering. 13 And be you generous towards one another and forgiving to one another: and if anyone has a complaint against his neighbor, as the Mashiyach forgave you, so also do you forgive. 14 And with all these (join) love, which is the girdle of perfection.

 

2 Timothy 2:22 (AENT) Fly from all the lusts of youth; and follow after righteousness and faith and love and peace with them that invoke our Master (Y'shua) with a pure heart. 23 Avoid those foolish discussions which afford no instruction; for you know that they generate arguments.

 

Hebrews 6:10 (AENT) For Elohim is not unrighteous to forget your works and your charity which you have shown in His Name, in that you have ministered and do minister to the Set Apart believers.

 

1 Peter 4:8 (AENT) And above all things, have fervent love one towards another; for love covers a multitude of sins.

 

1 John 2:15 (AENT) Love not the world nor anything in it; for whoever loves the world has not the love of the Father in him. 16 For all that is in the world is the lust of the body and the lust of the eyes and the pride of the world, which are not from the Father but from the world itself. 17 And the world is passing away, (both) it and the lust thereof; but he that does the pleasure of Elohim abides for ever.

 

1 John 3:17 (AENT) But whoever has worldly possessions and sees his brother in need and closes off his bowels (of merciful nature) from him, how is the love of Elohim in him? 18 My children, let us not love one another in words and in tongue, but in acts and in truth. 19 And by this we recognize that we are of the truth; and, before he will come, we make our hearts confident. 20 But if our heart condemns us, how much greater is Elohim than our heart, and knowing all things? 21 My beloved, if our heart condemns us not, we have open countenances before Elohim.

 

1 John 4:7 (AENT) My beloved, let us love one another: because love is from Elohim; and whoever loves is born of Elohim and knows Elohim. 8 Because Elohim is love; and whoever does not love, does not know Elohim. 9 By this was the love of Elohim towards us made known, because Elohim sent his only-begotten Son into the world that we by him might live. 10 In this is love; it was not that we loved Elohim, but that Elohim loved us and sent his Son as atonement for our sins. 11 My beloved, if Elohim has so loved us, we also should love one another.

 

1 John 4:16 (AENT) And we have believed and known the love which Elohim has towards us: for Elohim is love, and whoever abides in love, abides in Elohim. 17 And hereby is his love perfected with us; that we may have open countenances in the day of judgment; because as he was, so also are we in this world. 18 In love there is no fear; but perfect love casts out fear; because fear exists in peril, and he that fears is not perfected in love. 19 Let us, therefore, love Elohim; because he has first loved us. 20 And if any one will say, I love Elohim, and yet hates his brother, he is a liar: for he that loves not his brother who is visible, how can he love Elohim who is invisible? 21 And this command we have received from him, that whoever loves Elohim, must love also his brother.

 

Revelation 2:4 9 (AENT) Yet I have a matter against you on account of your former love which you have left
