Brotherly Kindness (Philadelphia) and Love (Agape)
Brotherly kindness, or "philadelphia," refers to the brotherly love between fellow believers in Christ, while love, or "agape," is the unconditional love we should have for everyone, reflecting God's love for us. Peter exhorts us to add these two types of love to our faith, as they are the foundation of all Christian virtues. Without love, our actions can become empty and purposeless. Brotherly kindness promotes unity within the body of Christ, while agape love empowers us to love unconditionally, even our enemies. These types of love are evidence of a life transformed by the power of God.
Reflection Question: How can I show more brotherly kindness and unconditional love in my interactions with others?
