=== Agape – unconditional "God" love === [[Charity (virtue)|Charity]] (''[[agápē]]'', Greek: [[wikt:ἀγάπη|ἀγάπη]]) is the love that exists regardless of changing circumstances. Lewis recognizes this selfless love as the greatest of the four loves, and sees it as a specifically Christian virtue to achieve. The chapter on the subject focuses on the need to subordinate the other three natural loves – as Lewis puts it, "The natural loves are not self-sufficient"<ref>Lewis, p. 133</ref> – to the love of God, who is full of charitable love, to prevent what he termed their "demonic" self-aggrandizement.<ref>{{cite book |author=MacSwain |year=1988 |pages=146, 181 |chapter=Love |title=Fundamentals of the Faith: Essays in Christian Apologetics |publisher=Ignatius Press}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/questionofgod/transcript/four.html |series=The Question of God |title=Program Two: C.S.
