| | The Four Loves - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Four Loves is a 1960 book by C. |  | | He starts by distinguishing Need-love (such as the love of a child for its mother) from Gift-love (epitomized by God's love for humanity), and then divides love into four categories, based on the four Greek words for love. |  | | Lewis sees charity as a specifically Christian virtue, and the chapter on the subject focuses on the need of subordinating the natural loves to the love of God. |

| | The Four Loves |
 | | Having the foundation of God's love in your life, and to seek to live in giving love selflessly in all its different forms, permutations and combinations, that is what Life is all about. |  | | “Love is patient, love is kind, it does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. |  | | Jesus talked about love in the sense of "love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you", and the Good Samaritan parable is used to answer the "who is my neighbour that I must love?" question of the second 'commandment' of Jesus. |

 | | But he also recognized this mysterious realm of love that did not have a direct and immediate personal benefit, and he identified that as agape, or a selfless love, a love that was truly committed to the well being of the other. |  | | The love that's being talked about in the love-your-neighbor exhortation is not necessarily the love that comes easy, the love that is full of emotion, of good feeling. |  | | Lewis is differentiating between different experiences of love that all human beings have, and identifying that it is natural to love one's brother, one's family members, enter into relationships with friends, male and female, to enter into erotic and romantic love. |

 | | The three "loves" (storge, philia, and eros) are stemmed from agape (God's perfect love). |  | | The Four Loves summarizes four kinds of human love--affection, friendship, erotic love, and the love of God. |  | | The chapter on charity (love of God) may be the best thing Lewis ever wrote about Christianity. |

 | | This love becomes more conscious and uplifting when we look at another person whom we may not care for and say: Although I would never consider living with that person, or marrying him [or her], but he [she] is a good person in his [her] way. Affection has taken hold here. |  | | It is imperative to reclaim the Eros love with its beauty and purity in a relationship, from the grip of the erotic and the lustful, in order to realize that the love between spouses is truly God given and blessed for His glory. |  | | The French use aimer for love, with is used to describe love for a person or for ice cream or for the love of anything else. |

| | The Question of God . Four Loves PBS |
 | | The Need-loves, so far as I have been able to see, have no resemblance to the Love which God is. They are rather correlatives, opposites; not as evil is the opposite of good, of course, but as the form of the blancmange is an opposite to the form of the mould. |  | | But Divine Gift-love in the man enables him to love what is not naturally lovable; lepers, criminals, enemies, morons, the sulky, the superior, and the sneering. |  | | But Divine Gift-love — Love Himself working in a man — is wholly disinterested and desires what is simply best for the beloved. |

| | “The Four Loves” as a Metaphor for Evolution |
 | | Affection can be seen as the type of love a mother can feel for a son, but also a son for a mother. |  | | But it is important to note that gift-love can also be a need-love: a mother can have the need of giving her love to her child. |  | | Charity is the type of love which is given without interest. |

| | Love's Sacred Order - The Four Loves Revisited - 17338 |
 | | The title of this book, Love's Sacred Order, is intended to address the problem of the need for clarification in the matter of love, above all the question of the relationship among the different kinds of love, all of which make their legitimate claim on us. |  | | The author skillfully uses scriptural, patristic and poetic references as the very best witnesses to love's interior reality and approaches this subject pondering and responding to issues raised in the widely known work of C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves, of which the year 2000 marks the fortieth anniversary of publication. |  | | When seeking to understand Christian love with some precision, we inevitably come to speak about order in loving. |

 | | In the end, it is agape, the divine love that is incarnated in the Cross that saves them all and gives them their rightful place in the sun. |  | | For those unfamiliar with it, Lewis uses the four Greek terms for our English word "love" to explore the different loves: affection or storge, friendship or philia, eros or marital love, and agape or divine love. |  | | Whenever we are in doubt in particular circumstances as to how we ought to love, we can look at a crucifix (an advantage of being Catholic or Eastern Orthodox!). |

 | | With this love, we are lost in awe and gaze in adoration of the God who created us, delighting in the fulfillment of his everlasting and most tender embrace. |  | | C.S. Lewis’ “The Four Loves” paints a vivid picture of the love for which we all long. |  | | Distinguishing between the general forms of “need,” “gift” and “appreciative” love, he also solidly establishes the distinctions, motivations, and dangers of the particular natural loves, “affection,” “friendship,” and “eros.” He leads the reader to recognize the transforming power the supernatural love of caritas (Christian charity) has over the natural loves. |
