What does Scripture say about God's love toward us?
Answered in 1 source
Scripture declares that God's love is expressed through His actions, particularly in sending His Son for our salvation.
God's love is profoundly demonstrated throughout Scripture, especially through the sending of His Son. 1 John 4:9 reveals that '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.' This indicates that God's love is not merely an emotion but an active commitment to our well-being. Furthermore, Romans 5:8 proclaims, 'But God commendeth his love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.' The depth of God's love is foundational for understanding our relationship with Him and should compel us to respond to His grace with love and obedience.
