No, according to Scripture, God's love is particular and directed primarily towards His elect; it is not extended equally to all mankind.
The sermon clarifies a key distinction in understanding God's love: it is not universal in the sense that all humans are loved equally. The preacher references biblical texts to show that God's love is specific to His elected and redeemed people. This is highlighted by the assertion that while many receive general grace and kindness from God, the unique and saving love of the Father is reserved for those whom He has chosen. This view aligns with sovereign grace theology, affirming that God's justice and holiness shape the nature of His love, emphasizing that there is a place for divine judgment where the love of God does not extend. Thus, the love depicted in Scripture is qualified and pertains deeply to the believer's union with Christ.
