What Is Love?1 John 4:7-8, 16 without a doubt LOVE is the very heart of our belief system. But what is love? What does it look like? How can I know it when I see it? Is there anything I can  do to walk in loving mindset? Is love a feeling? Does love mean caring deeply [but then we have to ask what does caring means], is love sexual attraction? Love means different things to different people. Problem: 1. If we all have a different definition of love then love really has no meaning at all.
