How do we know God is love?

Answered in 2 sources

The Scripture explicitly states that God is love, demonstrating His unchanging and relational character.

1 John 4 reveals that God is love and emphasizes that our understanding of love comes from Him. His love is not situational or based on our actions but is everlasting and perfect. God's nature as love means that He has eternally chosen to set His affection on His people, demonstrated ultimately in the sacrificial death of Christ. This love shapes our identity as believers and prompts us to love others as a response to His love for us.
