What does the Bible say about God's love for believers?
Answered in 3 sources
The Bible teaches that believers are beloved of the Lord and that God's love for them is everlasting.
According to biblical scripture, particularly in 2 Thessalonians 2:13 and Jeremiah 31:3, believers are described as "beloved of the Lord." This indicates a deep, unconditional love that God has set upon His people. This love is not only everlasting but is also marked by God giving His Son as a sacrifice for our sins (John 3:16). Furthermore, the love is further highlighted in 1 John 4:10, where it states that God loved us before we ever loved Him. This deep, divine love signifies that believers are the objects of His affection and grace, illustrating a relationship rooted in love, which is central to the Christian faith.
