L'amour pour Dieu
35 One of them, a lawyer, asked him a question, testing him. 36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law?” 37 Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 A second likewise is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments.” Matthew 22:35-40WEB
Jésus n'a pas changé la définition de l'amour entre l'Ancien et le Nouveau Testament (voir Matthieu 5:17-19). Par conséquent, la loi de Dieu dans les deux Testaments nous enseigne la définition de «l'amour».
L'amour - la catégorie scripturaire - n'est pas simplement une émotion. C'est une évaluation d'une «action». Dans les Écritures, par exemple, "réprimander son prochain" est une chose "aimante" à faire:
17 “‘You shall not hate your brother in your heart. You shall surely rebuke your neighbor, and not bear sin because of him. 18 “‘You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people; but you shall love your neighbor as yourself. I am YHWH. Leviticus 19:17-18WEB
Châtier physiquement votre enfant quand il pèche est un acte d'amour:
24 One who spares the rod hates his son, but one who loves him is careful to discipline him. Proverbs 13:24WEB
