AHAVAH THE LOVE OF GOD || BIBLE STUDY {REBROADCAST} PROPHETESS TARYN N. TARVER BISHOP

Spirit Life ChurchApr 2026

A Bible-study teaching on the Hebrew word ahavah (love) that traces its first mention (Genesis 22:2), its Hebrew letter-pictures (Aleph-Heh-Beth-Heh) and lexical senses, contrasts Old Testament ahavah with New Testament Greek loves (agape, phileo, storge, eros, mania), and applies love as a conscious, sacrificial choice (not merely a feeling). The talk emphasizes God's giving nature (John 3:16), the heart/lev as the decision center, practical discipleship (forgiveness, boundaries, marriage discernment, spiritual maturity), and living out Christ-like love in everyday relationships.
