One of love's definitions is "unselfish loyal and benevolent concern for the good of another. In Corinthians 13:4-8 it says "love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all thins, hope all things, endures all things, Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will ceases; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away"
Lusts are unlawful desires. Lust wanting something to which you have no right. Jesus explained in Matthew 5:27-28 that lusting after a woman is the same as actually committing adultery with her. Similarly, a woman is the same as actually doing so. You see - your heart directs your actions. Solomon said you behave in the same manner as you think in your heart (Proverbs 23:7). It is the thoughts of the heart that defile us because they lead to sinful action (Mark 17:18-23).
Love is an intense feeling of affection and care towards another person. It is a profound and caring attraction. On the other hand, lust is a strong desire of a sexual nature.
