The Love of God

God’s Love for Us

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.

John 14:23:
Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

Romans 5:8:
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Romans 8:38,39:
For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Ephesians 2:4-6:
But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
And hath raised 
us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.

I John 3:1:
Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

I John 4:7-10:
Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son 
to be the propitiation for our sins.

I John 4:16:
And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

Our Love for God

Matthew 22:37-39:
Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
This is the first and great commandment.
And the second 
is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

Romans 8:28:
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to
his purpose.

I Corinthians 2:9:
But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

I John 4:18,19:
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
We love him, because he first loved us.

I John 5:1-3:
Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.

Our Love for One Another

John 13:34,35:
A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
By this shall all 
men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

John 15:12:
This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

Romans 13:8:
Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.

I Corinthians 13:1-8,13:
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity 
[the love of God in the renewed mind in manifestation], I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
And though I have 
the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
And though I bestow all my goods to feed 
the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
Charity suffereth long, 
and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
Charity never faileth….
And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these 
is charity.

Ephesians 4:15:
But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, 
even Christ.

Ephesians 5:25:
Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it.

Philippians 2:2:
Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, 
being of one accord, of one mind.

Colossians 2:2,3:
That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;
In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

I Peter 1:22:
Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, 
see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently.

I John 4:11,12:
Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
