Bernard’s
four degrees of love give 4 different kinds of love within a faith based
relationship. There is the love of self for self’s sake, the love of God for
self’s sake, the love of God for God’s sake, and the love of self for God’s
sake. In 1 John, John Mark explains that we should love God for God’s sake, because
he first loving us gave us love to experience with Him. As long as we are serving God and loving God
for God being God, then we can at least have confidence that God loving us, is
a very secure reason for us to love ourselves.
