God is Love! 1 John 4: 7 -11

God’s Love is an Unconditional Love “In this is love, not that we have loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. ” 1 John 4: 10

God’s Love is an Active Love “In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world so that we might live through Him. ” 1 John 4: 9

God’s Love is an Active Love “In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world so that we might live through Him. ” 1 John 4: 9 “I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. ” Galatians 2: 20

God’s Love is a Purifying Love “In this is love, not that we have loved God but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. ” 1 John 4: 10

God’s Love is an Empowering Love “Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. ” 1 John 4: 7

“Imagine yourself as a living house. God comes in to rebuild that house. At first, perhaps, you can understand what He is doing. He is getting the drains right and stopping the leaks in the roof and so on; you knew that those jobs needed doing and so you are not surprised. But presently He starts knocking the house about in a way that hurts abominably and does not seem to make any sense. What on earth is He up to? The explanation is that He is building quite a different house from the one you thought of - throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor there, running up towers, making courtyards. You thought you were being made into a decent little cottage: but He is building a palace. He intends to come and live in it Himself. ” C. S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

“Could we with ink the ocean fill, and were the skies of parchment made. Were every stalk on earth a quill and every man a scribe by trade; to write the love of God above would drain the ocean dry, nor could the scroll contain the whole though stretched from sky to sky. ” -F. M. Lehman
