The word "love" has certainly lost much meaning, particularly in our own culture, where it seems to be little more than an emotional feeling that comes and goes. The Lord spoke much of love and noted that His disciples would be recognized by the love they had for one another (John:13:34-35 [34] A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
[35] By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
