Love is the foremost trait in all of Scripture. Because of Love, God sent His Son Jesus Christ to redeem us from the penalty of our sin through His sacrifice and victory at the cross. Jesus Christ identified the most important commandments in all of Scripture to be: Love God, Love your neighbor. Just before His crucifixion, Jesus said: "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another." Without God, this is simply impossible because "God is Love."
As C.S. Lewis wrote, "In God, there is no hunger that needs to be filled, only plenteousness that desires to give.
Love
Zephaniah 3:17
- "The Lord your God is
with you, he is might to save. He
will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will
rejoice over you with singing."
