beachcooky -> What does the Bible say about God's love? (7/12/2008 11:38:24 PM)

Ok, please don't quote John 3:16. That's just a well known verse.
I really want to learn about God's love. I want some good verses on it. I know they're in there...but I want a whole bunch because all of us sometimes forgets His love for us. I know I do...every single day! So I would really like some scriptures.

Hello,
God's Love is throughout the entire Bible even through death and destruction. The ultimate sign of his love is when he sent his son to the cross for all of us for there is no greater love. You will never find the socialable quote of "I LOVE YOU" no where in the Bible but the his Love exist from Genesis through Revelation. God bless and help us all that is need of strength to stay focus on his word.

1 John 3:1 Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called the children of God.

1 John 3:16 By this we know love because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

1 John 4:9-11
In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him.
In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propriation for our sins.
Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

1 John 4:19 We love Him because He first loved us.

Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Those are just some that specifically mention His love. But, as was already said, His love is shown throughout the whole Bible.

You obviously have no clue then. Because I've read some scriptures that referenced to God's love. No, not "I love you." But talks about God's love nevertheless. I asked for scriptures. But thats ok. I appreciate your answer but I wanted scriptures.

Thanks for the scriptures! Theres another one. I found it a while ago.

They kill us in cold blood because they hate you.
We're sitting ducks; they pick us off one by one.
None of this fazes us because Jesus loves us. I'm absolutely convinced that nothing—nothing
living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow, high or low, thinkable or unthinkable—absolutely nothing can get between us and God's love because of the way that Jesus our Master has embraced us.
Romans 8:35 (The Message)
