Unlike other religions or belief systems, the Bible speaks of God as not ‘able to love’ or ‘feels love’ but is described as love. God is known as having love intrinsically as part of His nature. Humans are built to know and experience love because love is a reality of God Himself (1 John 4:8). The personal connection from a living God created the certainty of knowing Him and the possibility of loving Him. The people of Israel were to love God in totality—heart, soul and strength (Deut. 6:5; Luke 10:27). Like energy, love has a Source. Unlike physical energy sources however, true love can be accessed at anytime, anywhere, because God is its ever-present Source. Just as all truth is God’s truth, every experience of real love mirrors God’s love—even for those who don’t believe in God!
