    With humanity so confused about love, who is to say what love is? The answer is God! One of the simplest and yet most profound definitions of love is found in 1 John 4: "God is love."

    READ 1 John 4:7-21 "God is love" ought to fill our hearts with warmth and hope. But we need to understand this rightly. "God is love" does not mean, that "love is God." It has accurately been said that "love does not define God, but God defines love." Love in modern society bears no resemblance ...read more
