“In the year that King Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up; and the train of his robe filled the temple. Above him stood the seraphim. Each had six wings: with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. And one called to another and said:
Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts;
the whole earth is full of his glory!And the foundations of the thresholds shook at the voice of him who called, and the house was filled with smoke. And I said: Woe is me! For I am lost; for I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts!” (Isaiah 6:1-3)

God IS Love. 1 John 4:9
Kindly tell the difference between "IS" and "HAS" Why is "IS" instead of "HAS" used? … thank you so much and godbless you a million times bro!
btw, I think it would be more appropriate 4u to use the word "are" instead of the past tense "were" as though God's "Love" hasn't remained the "same" way it was as before ("were").
erratum: 1 Jo. 4:8 (not 9) ty
I could explain and write it out here for you, but, I think listening to Jim in this video would explain it better than I can, giving light to your questions on “God” and the concept of “love.”

with love,

"the" concept or "his" concept. okay will check it out. hugs!
Of course Rai. Do take care as well.
God bless you.
God IS love indeed. but the premise of His love is His holiness.
we are not to define love according to human standards. even the love that is defined in 1cor13 is in the context of how we as humans operate.
God's love as defined by all of Scripture, from old to new testament, is on the premise of His holiness.
what does God love most? NOT US. God's number 1 love and priority is the Trinity and the glory of the Trinity.
Thank you for the comment David. I couldn't have said it better/simpler myself.
One of the reasons why people fail to see the grandeur and majesty of the God of the ages is because they traditionally look at Him through the lens of "God is love." But it is in God's holiness that all His attributes flow through. That's where everything comes together and makes sense.
