1 John 3:1-3

See how great a love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world doesn’t know us, because it didn’t know Him.

Beloved, now we are children of God, and it is not yet revealed what we will be. But we know that, when He is revealed, we will be like Him; for we will see him just as he is.

Everyone who has this hope set on Him purifies himself, even as He is pure.

 

1 John 4:7-19

Beloved, let us love one another: for Love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is Love.

In this was manifested The Love of God toward us, because that God sent His Only Begotten Son into The World, that we might live through Him.

Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and His love is perfected in us.

Hereby know we that we dwell in Him, and He in us, because He hath given us of His Spirit.

And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent The Son to be the Saviour of The World.

Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is The Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.

And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in The Day of Judgment: because as He is, so are we in this world.

There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

We love him, because he first loved us.

 

God's Eternal Love is further demonstrated by how He redeems us to Himself through His Holy Son --- let's read this excerpt from A.W. Tozer's work on God's Holy Attributes in "Knowledge of The Holy"  (also contained in the Free Book section of this Ministry’s Website): https://jesus-my-redeemer.com/new-to-the-kingdom-of-god--13/pages/gods-attributes

"A simpler and more familiar solution for the problem of how God can be just and still justify the unjust is found in the Christian doctrine of redemption. It is that, through the work of Christ in atonement, justice is not violated but satisfied when God spares a sinner. Redemptive theology teaches that mercy does not become effective toward a man until justice has done its work. The just penalty for sin was exacted when Christ our Substitute died for us on the cross. However unpleasant this may sound to the ear of the natural man, it has ever been sweet to the ear of faith. Millions have been morally and spiritually transformed by this message, have lived lives of great moral power, and died at last peacefully trusting in it."

 

The beautiful 19th Century Hymn Titiled “I Am His, and He Is Mine” expresses most graciously the theme of 1 John 4:
Loved with everlasting love, Led by grace that love to know;
Spirit, breathing from above, Thou hast taught me it is so!
O this full and perfect peace, O this transport all divine—
In a love which cannot cease, I am His and He is mine.

 

John 17:23-24

I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in One; and that The World may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before The Foundation of The World.

 

Psalm 107:8–9

[8] Let them thank The LORD for His steadfast love,
for His wondrous works to the children of man!
[9] For He satisfies the longing soul,
and the hungry soul He fills with good things.
