I've just realised I missed this question, and as no-one else has answered it; here goes:

Originally, agape was probably used in much the same was that the Romans came to use diligere for the kind of love that involved a conscious choice, rather than the emotional type that did not arise from choice.

However, I believe the early Christians used it as "love feast", which later became "communion".
