What is love? Or is this question too banal? But have you ever come across a universal definition of love? I have asked different AI chatbots this question and the only thing unanimous about their answers is the phrase, "Love is a complex and multifaceted emotion." How "complex and multifaceted" is love that even the almighty AI cannot unpack it for us? Psychology uses the term, "Love Language" to describe our sensory responses to love bits and baits; from its "Love Chemistry" lab, science presents a scintillating mosaic of endocrinal chemicals, released into our bloodstream, causing us to go gaga, in response to love tokens. However, theology strips love of all its sensory and endocrinal paraphernalia and re-decorates it with a saintly label, "agape"-meaning, selfless, sacrificial love. These are the three popular perspectives on love-none of which defines what love is. Perhaps, the reason we cannot find a clear and unanimous definition of love is because love is not meant to be defined, but only to be lived and experienced. This book employs the principle of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) to model Love as an object, with the following private properties: Motive, Attraction, and Emotion, and one method: Relationship. The purpose of an object is found in its method. Therefore, the objectification of Love has revealed empirically that the purpose of Love is Relationship. The next empirical result from this model is that the Love Object will operate in "Transaction Mode" when the property, "emotion" is not set. I am sure you have heard of "transactional relationships." This is the empirical basis for it. The conclusion from here is that if there is no emotion, love is not in it. Coincidentally, "emotion" is the only word that is unanimous in the description of Love by all the AI chatbots I have checked out. But theology has rejected the presence of emotion in its "agape" love narrative. However, theology is wrong on this. If the agape call to render selfless and sacrificial service is not wrapped in the "language of love" that triggers "chemical" actions from within that can spur us into action, to render charitable deeds, love is not present in that action. This validates Love Language and Love Chemistry as authentic elements in the process of Love. The mystery of Love is that Love is One. Taking Love from the temporal to the spiritual plane does not alter any of the properties of the Love Object or its only method. It only adds additional properties to enhance its beauty, stability, and power. By unraveling the mystery of Love, this book has created a new ecosystem-a paradise for Love-where the three elements of Love: Body, Soul, and Spirit, converge, to become One Love. This is the Paradise of Love that makes it possible for the Immortal Holy God to hug mortal beings and draw them into an intimate relationship. This is the Love Paradise, where Love "bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things." In this book you will witness how "Love Language" and "Love Chemistry" transform into worship, driven by purpose and faith; you will know what it means to love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength and how to do so effortlessly. You will know how to "love your neighbor as yourself", and your wife as "as Christ loved the church." This is the true Love that transcends the temporal and the spiritual. There is no eros, filial or agape love. Love is one. This is the one true Love that has been missing from the menu! Oh, one more thing! There is a clinic for sick and wounded souls, to heal their emotions, and free their souls, so that they can also love, in a healthy and wholesome way. This book comprises four sections. At the end of each section are workbook questions, to help you broaden and personalize your understanding of the issues. Welcome to Love Paradise!
