1 Corinthians 13 is widely known as the “love chapter” due to it’s point by point  description of the fundamental characteristics of love. However, there is another chapter in our new testament which features the word love more than double that of 1 Corinthians 13, this chapter is 1 John 4. While 1 Corinthians provides an amazing description of love, 1 John 4 connects the love of God for us with the truth that reciprocating this love to Him is undeniably linked to our love for one another.
