God's Divine Nature Is Love

1 John 4:8. Another side of God’s divine nature is that He is a God of love. "God is love" (1 John 4:8).   This love is an "agape" love, an unmerited favor toward someone. God has “agape” love for all of us, for all of mankind. He loves us and desires to provide for us (Psalms 145:16, “Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing”). Even with us falling so short of His glory because of our sin nature, He still loves us. For us to reconcile back to Him, reconcile both to His righteousness and His love, He has given us grace and mercy. Because of His grace, His Son, Jesus Christ, took on our punishment for our sin nature so that we may have an eternal, loving relationship with God (John 3:16, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life"). God is a good God so full of love and grace.

1 JOHN 4 BIBLE SCRIPTURE 1 John 4:8, "He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love."
