What are the 4 types of love in the Bible?

The four loves are as follows

• Storge – empathy bond.
• Philia – friend bond.
• Eros – romantic love.
• Agape – unconditional "God" love.

Fatherly Love

For His divine power has bestowed on us [absolutely] everything necessary for [a dynamic spiritual] life and godliness, through true and personal knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence.
2 Peter 1:3 AMP

Brotherly Love

The thing spoken of in the true proverb has happened to them, “T he dog returns to his own vomit ,” and, “A sow is washed only to wallow [again] in the mire.”
2 Peter 2:22 AMP

Christ’s death did not just end the hostility between God and us, but fully reconciled our relationship to Him. We can fully experience the Father’s love for us.


Think about it: children always have access to their father not because of their goodness, but because of their relationship with their father, and because their father loves them.

In that day you will ask in My name, and I am not saying to you that I will ask the Father on your behalf [because it will be unnecessary]; for the Father Himself [tenderly] loves you, because you have loved Me and have believed that I came from the Father.
John 16:26‭-‬27 AMP

For by Him all things were created in heaven and on earth, [things] visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities; all things were created and exist through Him [that is, by His activity] and for Him. And He Himself existed and is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. [His is the controlling, cohesive force of the universe.] He is also the head [the life-source and leader] of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will occupy the first place [He will stand supreme and be preeminent] in everything. For it pleased the Father for all the fullness [of deity—the sum total of His essence, all His perfection, powers, and attributes] to dwell [permanently] in Him (the Son), and through [the intervention of] the Son to reconcile all things to Himself, making peace [with believers] through the blood of His cross; through Him, [I say,] whether things on earth or things in heaven.
Colossians 1:16‭-‬20 AMP

ஏனென்றால் அவருக்குள் சகலமும் சிருஷ்டிக்கப்பட்டது; பரலோகத்திலுள்ளவைகளும் பூலோகத்திலுள்ளவைகளுமாகிய காணப்படுகிறவைகளும் காணப்படாதவைகளுமான சகல வஸ்துக்களும், சிங்காசனங்களானாலும், கர்த்தத்துவங்களானாலும், துரைத்தனங்களானாலும், அதிகாரங்களானாலும், சகலமும் அவரைக்கொண்டும் அவருக்கென்றும் சிருஷ்டிக்கப்பட்டது. அவர் எல்லாவற்றிற்கும் முந்தினவர், எல்லாம் அவருக்குள் நிலைநிற்கிறது. அவரே சபையாகிய சரீரத்துக்குத் தலையானவர்; எல்லாவற்றிலும் முதல்வராயிருக்கும்படி, அவரே ஆதியும் மரித்தோரிலிருந்து எழுந்த முதற்பேறுமானவர். சகல பரிபூரணமும் அவருக்குள்ளே வாசமாயிருக்கவும், அவர் சிலுவையில் சிந்தின இரத்தத்தினாலே சமாதானத்தை உண்டாக்கி, பூலோகத்திலுள்ளவைகள் பரலோகத்திலுள்ளவைகள் யாவையும் அவர் மூலமாய்த் தமக்கு ஒப்புரவாக்கிக்கொள்ளவும் அவருக்குப் பிரியமாயிற்று.
கொலோசெயர் 1:16‭-‬20


love is an action word. God desires that His followers love others through their actions.
However, it is much harder to do something or sacrifice something to demonstrate your love.


For God is not unjust so as to forget your work and the love which you have shown for His Name in ministering to [the needs of] the saints (God’s people), as you do.
Hebrews 6:10 AMP

No one has seen God at any time. But if we love one another [with unselfish concern], God abides in us, and His love [the love that is His essence abides in us and] is completed and perfected in us.
1 John 4:12 AMP

The Lord appeared to me ( Israel) from ages past, saying, “I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you and continued My faithfulness to you.
Jeremiah 31:3 AMP

According to Strong’s Concordance the Hebrew word for “Lovingkindness” is, ‘owlam’ (H5769) which means, “perpetual, long duration, for ever, everlasting and evermore” God’s Lovingkindness is everlasting. God’s Love stands forever.

Great is the Lord , and highly to be praised, And His greatness is [so vast and profound as to be] unsearchable [incomprehensible to man].
Psalms 145:3 AMP

.New Life and New Heart

Moreover, I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you, and I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.
Ezekiel 36:26 AMP

But you are a chosen race , a royal priesthood , a consecrated nation , a [special] people for God’s own possession , so that you may proclaim the excellencies [the wonderful deeds and virtues and perfections] of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. Once you were not a people [at all], but now you are G od’s people ; once you had not received mercy , but now you have received mercy .
1 Peter 2:9‭-‬10 AMP


All things New vs All New things.
