Agape
The term is not common in Hellenistic literature, which usually refers to "love" as eros (sexual) or Philia (friendship). The term occurs as a verb in the Greek Old Testament, the probable source from which the New Testament authors drew. It occurs only twice in the first three Gospels (Mt 24:12; Lk 11:42) but several times in the Gospel and Letters of John and the Letters of Paul. Its basic meaning expresses selfless care and concern for the well-being of the other. In its Christian context it refers to God's deep and active love for the world, expressed in His desire to save it from the power and consequences of sin and death. Agape is at the heart of the mystery of who God is, what the cross of Christ means and the mystery of the Church. The term occurs in the early Church with reference to a community meal either before or after the Eucharist. The earliest New Testament reference to this meal is 1 Corinthians 11:20-34. St. Ignatius of Antioch refers to this meal as a love-feast (cf. his Letter to the Smyrneans), as does Pliny in his letter to Trajan. The practice fell into disuse by the sixth century, even though it is mentioned at the Trullan Synod of 691-692.
Bishop
Sheen beautifully explain meaning of word Agape in this DVD.
He explains the conversation between Jesus and St. Peter after resurrection
in which Jesus used two different words for Love when he ask St. Peter "Do
you love me?
One of the words for love was Agape (Sacrificial God's Love) and second was
Philia (Human Love).

Text of The Third Secret of Fatima Prophecy
COMPLETE TRANSLATION OF ORIGINAL TEXT:
VATICAN CITY, JUN 26, 2000 (VIS) - Given below is the complete translation of the original Portuguese text of the third part of the secret of Fatima, revealed to the three shepherd children at Cova da Iria-Fatima on July 13, 1917, and committed to paper by Sr. Lucia on January 3, 1944:
"I write in obedience to you, my God, who command me to do so through his Excellency the Bishop of Leiria and through your Most Holy Mother and mine.
"After the two parts which I have already explained, at the left of Our Lady and a little above, we saw an Angel with a flaming sword in his left hand; flashing, it gave out flames that looked as though they would set the world on fire; but they died out in contact with the splendor that Our Lady radiated towards him from her right hand: pointing to the earth with his right hand, the Angel cried out in a loud voice: 'Penance, Penance, Penance!'. And we saw in an immense light that is God: 'something similar to how people appear in a mirror when they pass in front of it' a Bishop dressed in White 'we had the impression that it was the Holy Father'. Other Bishops, Priests, men and women Religious going up a steep mountain, at the top of which there was a big Cross of rough-hewn trunks as of a cork-tree with the bark; before reaching there the Holy Father passed through a big city half in ruins and half trembling with halting step, afflicted with pain and sorrow, he prayed for the souls of the corpses he met on his way; having reached the top of the mountain, on his knees at the foot of the big Cross he was killed by a group of soldiers who fired bullets and arrows at him, and in the same way there died one after another the other Bishops, Priests, men and women Religious, and various lay people of different ranks and positions. Beneath the two arms of the Cross there were two Angels each with a crystal aspersorium in his hand, in which they gathered up the blood of the Martyrs and with it sprinkled the souls that were making their way to God."
