BECAUSE I LOVE YOU.
 
"But God commends his own love toward us,
in that while we were yet sinners,
Christ died for us."
                                                                (Room. 5:8)
 
 
 
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son,
that whoever believes in him should not perish,
but have eternal life."
                                                       (John 3:16)
 
 
 
"10. In this is love, not that we loved God,
but that he loved us, and sent his Son as the atoning sacrifice for our sins. "
                                                        (1.John 4:10)
 
 
 
"Set me as a seal on your heart,
As a seal on your arm; For love is strong as death.
Jealousy is as cruel as Sheol;
Its flashes are flashes of fire, A very flame of Yahweh. "
                                                       (Songs 8:6)
 
 
 
"Beloved, let us love one another,
for love is of God;
and everyone who loves is born of God, and knows God."
                                                        (1.John 4:7)
 
 
 
"Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?
Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution,
or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
No, in all these things,
we are more than conquerors through him who loved us."
                                            (Rm 8:35,37)
 
 
 
"For I am persuaded, that neither death,
nor life, nor angels, nor principalities,
nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,
nor height, nor depth,
nor any other created thing,
will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
                                             (Rm 8:38-39)
 
 
 
"But now faith, hope, and love remain--these three.
The greatest of these is love. "
                                            (1. Cor. 13:13)
 
 
 
"Many waters can't quench love, Neither can floods drown it.
If a man would give all the wealth of his house for love,
He would be utterly scorned. "
                                                       (Songs 8:7)
 
 
 
"Love never fails."
                                            (1. Cor. 13:8)
