LOVE VS INFATUATION

BY: JOSHUA P. EMORICHA RN

CUPID- GOD OF
LOVE
A CHUBBY BOY
WITH A BOW AN
ARROW.
IF YOU HIT THE
ARROW YOU WILL
BE INLOVED TO
SOMEONE
BLINDLY.
IS THAT REALLY A
LOVE?
 LOVE
“IS NOT
CONTROLLED BY
FEELINGS . IT DOES
NOT DO
ANYTHING AND
EVERYTHING IT
FEELS. RATHER IN
TRUE LOVE, THE
FEELINGS ARE
UNDER THE
CONTROL OF
PRINCIPLE”.
TRUE LOVE HAS A
FEELING, TENDER
FEELINGS WHICH ARE
PUT IN THE HUMAN
HEART BY A CARING
GOD.
LOVE IS PATIENT,
LOVE IS KIND, IT DOES
NOT ENVY, IT DOES
NOT BOAST, IT IS NOT
PROUD, IT DOES NOT
RUDE.
INFUATUATION
FEELINGS ARE IN
CHARGE.
THE PROBLEM IS
OUR FEELING IS
FICKLE.
TODAY I FEEL
GREAT, SO I KISS
HER.
TOMORROW I
FEEL TERRIBLE, SO
I KICK HER.
IS THAT LOVE?
TRUE LOVE
USES ITS EYES
TO SEE AND
EXAMINE THE
STRENGTH
AND
WEAKNESS TO
THE
PERSPECTIVE
PARTNER.
 INFATUATION IS
BLIND

EXAMPLE: WHEN THE

GIRL SEES HER MAN
HOOKED WITH
DRUGS BUT STILL GO
ON MARRIAGE.
WHEN THE BOY SEES
HER GIRLFRIEND
FLIRTING TO
ANOTHER MAN BUT
STILL CONTINUE
LOVING HIM.
JESUS ASKED;
DO YOU HAVE
EYES BUT FAIL
TO SEE? MARK
8:18.
LOVE TAKES TIME
EVERY PERMANENT
THINGS VALUE IN LIFE
TAKES TIME. IF YOU
WISH TO PLANT
TREES AND GO
BIGGER AND TALLER
YOU MUST TAKE
GOOD CARE BY
WATERING AND
PUTTING SOME
FERTILIZER FOR
MONTHS OR YEARS.
LOVE IS A PLANT, A
TENDER PLANT.
 INFATUATION IS
HURRY
EXAMPLE: SEE HER
TODAY, COURT HER
TOMORROW AND
MARRY THE DAY
AFTER.
GROWING A
RELATIONSHIP TAKES
TIME, AND GOD
EXPECTS THE COUPLE
TO GROW UP
MATURELY IN LOVE.
EPHESIANS 4:15.
LOVE IS CONCERNED
WITH INTERNALS
TRUE LOVE
CONCERNED WITH
THE PERSONALITY.
LOVE EXAMINES
THE HABITS,
INNER VIRTUES OR
THE VICES. TRUE
LOVE PAYS
ATTENTION TO
THE CHARACTER,
THE INNER SELF.
THIS LOVE IS CAME
FROM GOD.
INFATUATION IS
OBSEESED TO
EXTERNALS

PUPPY LOVE
OBSSESSED WITH
THE APPEARANCE,
IS SLAVE TO THE
FASHION AND
INTOXICATED TO
SEX APPEAL.
LOVE IS MATURE

IT IS CONCERNED
TO THE WELFARE
OF THE OTHER.
TRUE LOVE
REFRAINS THE
ENJOYMENT
TODAY THAT
WHICH WILL
REGRET
TOMORROW.
INFATUATION IS
CHILDISH
CHILDISH AND
IRRESPONSIBLE
INFATUATION SAYS, I
DON’T UNDERSTAND
THE WORD
TOMORROW, GIVE IT
TO ME NOW. IT CRIES
THE GRATITUDE
TODAY NOT MINDING
THE CONSEQUENCES
TOMORROW.
ALL TRUE LOVE
COMES FROM GOD,
THAT TENDER
EMOTION AND
ABILITY TO DESIRE,
THAT CAPACITY TO
CARES WAS
IMPLANTED TO OUR
BEING BY OUR
CREATOR GOD.
ALL TRUE LOVE
COMES FROM GOD.
DO YOU LOVE JESUS?
DO YOU REALLY LOVE
JESUS?

YES, BECAUSE JESUS IS

LOVE . HE DIED ON THE
CROSS TO SAVE US. WE
REDEEMED BY HIS
PRECIOUS BLOOD. HE
SACRIFICED IN OUR
BEHALF. INDEED, GOD
LOVES US SO MUCH. IN
JOHN 3.16- FOR GOD SO
LOVED THE WORLD THAT
HE GAAVE HIS ONLY
BEGOTTEN SON THAT
WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH
IN HIM SHOULD NOT
PERISH BUT HAVE
EVERLASTING LIFE.
