Greek for Love:Eros, Pilos, Agape, Stergo

Greek for Love

Eros Phisical love and attraction
Pilos To feel the love between friends

Agape is a Greco-Christian term referring to love, "the highest form of love, charity" and "the love of God for man and of man for God". The word is not to be confused with philia, brotherly love, as it embraces a universal, unconditional love that transcends and persists regardless of circumstance. Wikipedia

給我FB的朋友: 為主活
2019年2月中旬,我在美國,在此聚會。今年,我在此講4場,主任牧師在底下聽3場。後來,他找我到他的辦公室,問我:(文亮,你是不是不想活太久?你的分享裡,有種厭世情懷。)。
我說:(是啊,我厭倦這世界,不想活太久。早點到主那邊去,更好。)。他說:(文亮,你不要這樣想,這裡有人在84歲才當海外宣教士,如今95歲了,還在海外宣教)。我哭了,聽進去了。求主原諒我的厭世情懷。
