AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Thessalonians 4:9 ¶ Now concerning brotherly love, you have no need for anyone to write you, for you have been [personally] taught by God to love one another [that is, to have an unselfish concern for others and to do things for their benefit]. [Lev 19:18; John 13:34] |

Bible Note: Hi, Dr. Aixen... If you look back at my post you will see that I wrote "the GREEK WORD 'taught of God' doesn't appear any where else in scripture." I did not write, "the English phrase." The Greek word is theodidaktos. Even the light of nature tells us to love one another. The average unregenerate person will agree to this, although they have only rather vague ideas as to how to do it. It really only finds full expression among believers. In Him, Doc |
