The LOVE Of God

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”

John 3:16

What is love really? According to the holy scriptures love is the revelation of Jesus as “the only begotten Son.” Jesus as “only begotten” refers to His unique nature as God in flesh. Jesus as “the Son” refers to His identity as the “Heir” of God. He inherited ALL of the Father’s eternal attributes and characteristics. They are one in the same. How did God love the world? He gave Himself in a form that would be sufficient to pay for all of the offenses we all cause against Him so that we don’t have to burn in hell, but instead, join Him in the kingdom. It’s hard to imagine such a thing, but that is God’s brand of love truly!
