Why is God's love for us compared to His love for Christ?

Answered in 1 source

God's love for us reflects the same intense love He has for Christ, as we are seen in Him.

In John 17:23, Jesus reveals the profound truth that the Father loves believers with the same love He has for the Son. This comparison illustrates the depth and intimacy of our relationship with God through Christ. As we are united with the Beloved, our identity is now intertwined with Him; thus, we are regarded as beloved by the Father. This understanding should fill us with great assurance and joy, knowing that we are not only accepted but cherished by God. It assures us of our place within the divine family and encourages us to live out our faith in response to such immeasurable love, and to exhibit that love in our interactions with others.
