God is love. Jesus is love incarnate. He surrendered His life and sacrificed it inorder to bring forgivness for our sins. He is selfless. Therefore, during His passion, He was concerned about about our salvation and not about His own suffering. He served those around Him by healing the sick, comforting the afflicted, freeing us from sins and teaching us the truth.

Love, therefore, surrenders and sacrifices self, to unconditionally serve and forgive others.
 
Love

The Premier Teaching of Christianity is Love. An undying expression of Jesus' doctrine of Heavenly Love is found in 1 Corinthians 13. More potent for the building of the Church than any, or all, of the various manifestations of God's Power.

Love, the Church's most effective weapon. Love, without which all the various Gifts of the Spirit are of no avail. Love, the Essence of God's Nature. Love, the Perfection of Human Character. Love, the most Powerful Ultimate Force in the Universe.

Even if I bestow all my goods to Feed the Poor, even if I give my body to be burned, if I Have Not Love, if Profits me Nothing - 1 Corinthians 13:3.

What a Thought-Provoking passage! The Gift of Speaking like an Angel, of Prophesying, of having All Knowledge, of Faith that Moves Mountains, of Charity to the last dollar, even Martyrdom, all of no use unless we have the Spirit of Christian LOVE. Again, as previously stated elsewhere, What a call to Self-Examination!
