Hai my beloved bros & siss in Jesus christ. Jesus loves you all vry much pls read and understand carefully. The Love of God. First in the consideration of the subject of love comes the love of God--He who is love, and from whom all love is derived. The love of God is that part of His nature--indeed His whole nature, for God is love--which leads Him to express Himself in terms of endearment toward His creatures, and actively to manifest that interest and affection in acts of loving care and self-sacrifice in behalf of the objects of His love. God is love (1 Joh 4:8; Joh 4:16) just as truly as He is light (1 Joh 1:5), truth (1 Joh 1:6), and spirit (Joh 4:24). Spirit and light are expressions of His essential nature; love is the expression of His personality corresponding to His nature. God not merely loves, but is love; it is His very nature, and He imparts this nature to be the sphere in which His children dwell, for he that abideth in love abideth in God, and God abideth in him (1 Joh 4:16). Christianity is the only religion that sets forth the Supreme Being as Love. In heathen religions He is set forth as an angry being and in constant need of appeasing.
