But this distinction is only a very small part of the difference, and as such is in itself incorrect. Both of these words may convey intense emotion or may be relatively weak in their meanings. These words do not indicate degree of love, but kinds of love. Agapao refers to love which arises from a keen sense of the value and worth in the object of our love, and phileo describes the emotional attachment which results from intimate and prolonged association. That is why in the Scriptures we are never commanded to "love" with the word phileo. Even when husbands and wives are instructed to love one another, the word agapao is used, for it is impossible to command that kind of love which can arise only from intimate association. On the other hand, the saints are admonished to appreciate profoundly the worth and value in others, and agapao is used to convey this meaning. All Christians are not necessarily to have sentimental attachments for one another (phileo). This would be impossible, for our circle of intimate friends is limited by the nature of our lives. But we can all be commanded to appreciate intensely the worth of others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6474</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5483]]></link><description><![CDATA[What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5483</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The stream of Time, which is continually washing the dissoluble fabrics of other poets, passes without injury by the adamant ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55322]]></link><description><![CDATA[The stream of Time, which is continually washing the dissoluble fabrics of other poets, passes without injury by the adamant of Shakespeare.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55322</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Brady's First Law of Problem Solving: When confronted by a difficult problem, you can solve it more easily by reducing ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44271]]></link><description><![CDATA[Brady's First Law of Problem Solving: When confronted by a difficult problem, you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question: How would the Lone Ranger have handled this?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44271</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65722]]></link><description><![CDATA[Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65722</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When one person makes an accusation, check to be sure he himself is not the guilty one.
