The Attributes of God.
Attributes mean:
There are certain attributes that describe God’s character – the most important characteristics of God…
The entire teaching of the Bible comes from the attributes of God.
Every believer should know this. And
This subject should be studied.
Each attribute needs to be preached and taught one by one.
If you want to know God and know more, study the attributes of God.
From these attributes we know that the God of the Bible is the only living and true God. All others are false gods.
We learn about the true God and identify false gods.
Whether we study these attributes or not affects our spiritual growth.
The supreme goal of man’s entire life is to know God and fear Him. Solomon says at the end of Ecclesiastes. Let’s read…
The attributes of God affect our thinking, our words, and our actions.
Idols leave and the true God makes room.
In reality, we cannot and should not separate these attributes from each other.
All of God’s attributes are important and He never reveals them in a way that contradicts each other.
But while studying, we will study them one by one.
If you have any questions, you can ask them openly without hesitation.
Studying these attributes makes it very easy for us to understand other things or topics.
For example, His plan, purpose, will, calling… etc. etc.
How many attributes of God are there? Let’s study 28… Now there may be more than that, but that’s all we can see in the Bible.
We only know what He has revealed and that is enough.
We are limited and He is unlimited.
God’s character plays a huge role in determining truth and falsehood.
For example, let’s read 1 John 4:1…
The false prophet does things that contradict God’s attributes.
Just as we know – to find out what is true and what is false.
1. Is it biblical, is it right or wrong, rather than biblical, is it biblical, is it biblical, or does it contradict the Bible and the teachings of the Bible?
2. Does it agree with the attributes of God or does it contradict the attributes?
The Holy Spirit gives us this power.
That is why it is so important to study the attributes of God.
In the New Testament we see the Pharisees and the Scribes and the Sadducees.
These groups probably began in the time of Ezra and Nehemiah. And they may have developed and later organized.
By that time, the Israelites knew why they had been taken captive by the Gentiles at various times?
Idolatry and Sabbath-breaking were the main reasons why they turned away from the true God and repeatedly refused to return to Him.
The Pharisees began to study the law in order not to repeat the same mistakes of their ancestors – in a way good) but became very orthodox (Matthew 23:30-32).
We know that Jesus shows their very orthodox state in Matthew 23. Matthew 23 Chapter 23 and 23 Chapter
1. Matthew 22:29 – You are in error because you do not know the Scriptures and the power of God.
What the Bible says is very important.
2. Matthew 23:23 – They do not teach difficult things.
Justice, mercy, faithfulness
The attributes of God and other difficult things..
1. Orthodox … became
2. What is over-spiritualism or over-spiritualism? Over-spiritualism means..
Not looking at the context of the Bible, and elevating one’s own feelings above the Word and the things of God.
What I say is right rather than what the Bible says.
Because I am an apostle, a prophet, a great speaker, I went to heaven…
They say things that contradict the Bible and the character of God,
They say that I heard from God, I am the final authority.
The Holy Spirit speaks according to the Word.
They talk about polygamy, having visions about others, they elevate themselves by putting people down, they claim to give the Holy Spirit, they try to control.
All over-spiritualists (maybe they have not been saved many times).
They do the exact opposite of what the Bible says – prophets “re” speak prophecies.
They say things that contradict the character of God.
Freed from sin, including others..
Protect yourself from orthodoxy and over-spirituality.
We need to study and teach the attributes of God and preach.
The Word has been prepared for 28 Saturdays.
Even more time can be given than that.
And each one comes in preaching and teaching.
The attributes and characters of God are divided in various ways, but we will mainly look at two divisions.
1. 20 divine attributes
2. 6 divine (moral) attributes
3. 5 divine (moral) characters
4. 3 divine (moral) characters
I will explain in the next section.
There is another division.
1. Communicable and (14)
2. Communicable (14)
We see the evidence in the scriptures.
In the rest of today’s lesson, we will look at two attributes of God.
(1) God is Spirit and (2) God is Life.
First..
1. God is Spirit – God is pure Spirit, He is completely Spirit. He has no body. The essential nature of God is that He is Spirit. Materiality and temporality are not God. (Numbers 23:19)
But Jesus took on human flesh.
Because God is spirit, He is invisible, not visible to the physical eye or mind. John 1:18 ÷ Colossians 1:15 ÷ 1 Timothy 1:17 ÷ 1 Timothy 6:14-16 ÷ 1 John 1:1-2 .
Because God is invisible and spirit, there is no idol to Him and cannot be made. That is why making an idol is a great sin and the first commandment. (Exodus 20:4) .
Because it cannot be made, that is why God hates idolatry and idolatry also has a spiritual practical meaning.
God is invisible and when He wants to reveal Himself, He has revealed Himself in Christ in both the Old and New Testaments.
God is spirit, some verses in this context:
1. Let’s read John 4:23-24
While talking to the Samaritan woman, Jesus gives this important teaching.
Spirit and Truth ….. Worship
Other passages – Genesis 1:1 ÷ Exodus 20:4, 33:20 ÷ 1 Kings 8:27 ÷ Isaiah 66:1-2 ÷ Luke 24:39 ÷ John 1:18 ÷ Romans 1:20 ÷ Colossians 1:15 ÷ 1 Timothy 1:17 ÷ Hebrews 11:27 .
2. God is life.
Meaning: (1) God is alive or life is alive. From eternity to eternity.
(2) He is the source of all other life.
Biblical meaning of life – a living person, the source of life, living, moving, flowing, real or never dying.
Now – God has life in Himself, He is life.
All other lives are His gift.
Only from one living thing comes another living thing. Life does not come from non-existent life.
1. God is alive.
Numbers 14:28/Joshua 3:10/Psalm 42:2/Daniel 6:20/12:7 Matthew 16:16/John 6:57/14:12 Acts 14:15/2 Corinthians 3:3/Revelation 1:18 Many other passages.
2. God is the source of life.
Genesis 1:27/Genesis 1 and 2/ All things were created by God.
Genesis 7:4/Deuteronomy 32:39/Matthew 22:31-32/John 10:7-10.
3. Only God was resurrected.
Jesus took on human form.
Died in humanity .
Was resurrected.
In God all saints will be made alive. (John 5:25)
John 11:25-26
4. Jesus is the water and bread of life.
John 4:10-11/John 6:51
5. Is the source or fountain of the living word.
Acts 7:38 ÷ Hebrews 4:12 ÷ 1 Peter 4:5 ÷ The inspired Word.
He is also the sustainer of all life.
Colossians 1:17 ÷ Isaiah 42:5
God is the giver and taker of life.
Daniel 5:23 ÷ Psalm 139:16
Eternal life – the life of Jesus Christ
Life that has no change
Christ is eternal life
Only He can give.
In Greek:
1. အက်းရာင
Physical life, life of breath or life of the body.
2. Shiva – eternal life, saved life
Life from God
The blessed life (Romans 12:1-2) is sometimes used only for physical life.
Resurrected life (Romans 11:15)
Spiritual life. (Romans 8:6)
The world, the worldly believer – is full of visible life.
But God Shiva – He is alive.
He has shared that life with us (with believers) with unbelievers only visible.
That life lasts forever, and we never die.

3. In the third attribute of God we will study the topic “God is perfect” or it can also be called “God’s perfection”.
One verse we can read – Matthew 5:48 Wonderful verse
definition and meaning – God is morally perfect. God never fails morally. He is infinitely perfect.
God is perfect and nothing is lacking. God never makes a mistake or error. He is always perfectly right and precise. He is perfectly excellent.
The word perfection can be found in 6 words in Hebrew.
1. טמית (tamit) – perfect, true, faultless, perfect, faultless.
2. קזבחי (salem) – complete, safe, faultless.
3. טמית (tem) – perfect, faultless, perfect.
4. טמיבם (tamaam) – complete, complete or entire and without fault.
5. אמלאן (amen) – perfect, faithful.
6. פבש היל (kalel) – whole or complete, perfect.
The word perfection is mainly used in Greek in 4 words.
1) טלאובישיקא (telios) – complete, perfect, mature.
2) Perfect (teleo) – To complete, to make perfect, to make perfect.
3) Perfect (teleatos) – Completeness, perfection.
4) Perfect (katarinjo) – To make perfect, to make perfect.
Explanation:
1. God’s works are perfect (Deuteronomy 32:4) We need to engage in His works.
2. God’s ways are perfect (2 Samuel 22:31) We should seek His perfect way – not our own.
3. God’s word is perfect. (Psalm 18:30)
4. God’s statutes are perfect. (Psalm 19:7) (138:8)
2 Samuel 22:33 – He makes my way perfect.
Job 37:16 – God is perfect in knowledge.
Isaiah 25:1 – God’s perfect faithfulness is spoken of.
Romans 12:2 – God’s perfect will (we must understand this).
Colossians 1:28 – Believers are perfect in Christ (what Christ has done).
James 1:17 – Every good and perfect gift comes from above.
James 1:25 – The law is perfect.
1 John 4:18 – Perfect love casts out fear.
1) No man is perfect, but He is perfect.
We follow God or the perfect God.
We imitate those who follow God, but together people are not perfect…. We look to Jesus and others in the finished work. (Hebrews 12:1-2 and 2 Corinthians 5:13-15)
2) The principle of perfection or maturity (James 1:4, Colossians 4:12)
We are perfect in Christ, just as He is perfect.
We are becoming perfect.. Day by day we are becoming and should be becoming more mature.
Not only spiritual but maturity since spirituality is also very important.
3. Now we are entering into another attribute “God is eternal” or the eternity of God.
Some meanings and definitions: There is no time limit in God.
Genesis 1:1: In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
: Time began from this time and will one day end.
Time has a beginning, but God has no beginning.
He is eternal.
God has always existed before time began.
God is, has always existed, and will always exist.
He has no beginning and no end.
God began everything, but God Himself is always. 1 Timothy 6:16 ÷ Isaiah 41:4 ÷ Hebrews 13:3
God is always in Himself. (He is controlled by someone) Isaiah 40:13-14 ÷ Acts 17:24-28
God is limited by time. – Psalm 90:1-4
And God can be trusted,. – Psalm 145:4, 13…
God is eternal: We have eternal life.
1. Angels, humans have a beginning, but now they will last forever.
2. God is eternal, and His plan is eternal.
3. We are in the eternal plan of the eternal God.
We are in a time now, but with this time we are in an eternal plan.
Adam, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Billy Grams were all in a time, but they were all part of an eternal plan.
We are also now, but we are in an eternal plan, all of us.
Time spent for the glory of God now lasts forever. This means we must have an eternal perspective and focus on eternity.
Living for the things of the present, which are perishable, or living for the eternal God.
John 8:58 – Before Abraham was, I am.
Let’s read Psalm 90:2…
Isaiah 57:15
1 Corinthians 2:7 – He predestined before the world began.
John 17:5 – And now, Father, glorify me with the glory I had with you before the world began. Let
’s read 2 Timothy 1:9, Titus 1:2,…………– In the hope of eternal life, God, who cannot lie, promised before the world began.
(Beginning – refers to time)
John 1:3÷Colossians 1:16÷Jude 25.

So far we have studied four attributes of God.
1. God is Spirit. (God’s immateriality)
2. God is life.
3. God is perfect, and
4. God is eternal.
Now in this class we will study the other three attributes.
5. God is wise. 6. God
is light.
7. God is unchangeable.
First the 5th attribute – God is wise.
God is infinitely wise.
The common Hebrew word for wisdom – ריזאפבם (wisdom) and the Greek word קיוזבב (society) – both refer to intelligence and skill.
Wisdom is – to take in knowledge of truth.
Wisdom is – to apply knowledge to one’s life or to put knowledge into practice.
When God is wise, it refers to God’s ability to make perfect or flawless choices to accomplish the best or greatest end.
His omniscience informs His wise choices.
His love ensures that His choices are good.
His omniscience enables them to achieve the best possible outcome.
Only God understands all things, and knows how to use them efficiently, effectively, and correctly in life to accomplish His will.
God is wise, He is also called wisdom.
Ezra 7:25 – According to the wisdom of your God which is in your hand.
God communicates His wisdom.
We have some of His wisdom.
Job 12:13 – With Him is wisdom and might: with Him are counsel and understanding.
Daniel 2:20 – Wisdom and might are His.
Luke 11:49 – God spoke His wisdom.
Romans 16:27 – Glory to God alone, the wise.
1 Corinthians 1:24 – Jesus is the power of God and the wisdom of God.
1 Corinthians 2:7 – The mysterious wisdom of God.
Ephesians 3:10 – God’s wisdom is revealed in many ways through the church.
Revelation 7:12 – Good verse
God’s words are wise.
Psalm 19:7 – God’s word makes the simple wise.
Jeremiah 8:9 – Wisdom comes without the word of God and the book of Proverbs.
You and I need to ask God for wisdom like Solomon
did in 1 Kings 3.
In verse 9 he asks…
In verse 10 – God was pleased with this request.
In verse 12 – He gave us all wisdom and understanding.
In verse 13 – And other things as well.
Today we too need to ask the only wise God for wisdom.
Every pastor needs to ask for his flock.
For preaching and teaching and leadership.
He is pleased … if someone asks for wisdom.
He gives, and with it a bonus.
Our prayers should also be for wisdom.
James 1:5 – But if any of you lacks wisdom, ask
Who does not have it? Do you want it?
Let him ask God
He does not give without asking, we ask through prayer
Every student, pastor, leader, believer, missionary
God gives freely.
Like Solomon .. He gives to us too.
And does not grudge but is glad 1 Kings 3:10
And it will be given to him, the promise.
His promise is, yes, amen….. 2 Corinthians 1:20

Heavenly and earthly wisdom – Read at home James 3:13-18
God’s works are wise.
Psalm 104:24 – How wonderful are your works, you have made them in your wisdom.
Proverbs 3:19 – God made all things by his wisdom.
Jeremiah 10:12 – ….
Hosea 14:9 – There is no one as wise as him.
God is the source of all wisdom.
Proverbs 2:6 – The Lord gives wisdom.
Genesis 41:39, 1 Kings 3:28, 1 Kings 4:29, 2 Chronicles 2:12, Daniel 2:23
Ecclesiastes 2:26 – God gives wisdom.
Luke 2:40, Ephesians 1:17, Colossians 1:9, 2:3, James 1:5, 1 Peter 3:15, 1 Kings 3:9.
Now “God is light” or “the light of God” (John 1:4-5)
The Bible declares that God is light.
He is the Holy Spirit of Light, (John 4:24)
He is not physical light but God made physical light, (Genesis 1:3) (Isaiah 45:7)
The main Hebrew word for light – ביאחק (meir) – to take light, to shine, to illuminate, to give light, to illuminate.
Some Greek words:
עזיק – light, having light, the element and realm of heaven, light, pure and simple.
Ajayakujayachayak (bright and morning star, bringer of light, having light and giving light (2 Peter 1:19).
Ajayatbhaslayak (bright, shining, piercing light (Matthew 17:5).
Ajayatsnaya – to illuminate, to give light, to shine (Revelation 21:13, 22:5).
Now these words in the sense of God – God is pure light, the great illuminator, He is very glorious and He is the giver of light.
God is spiritual light: Whenever light is used as an attribute of God: it indicates that God is purely spiritual light.
2 Samuel 22:29, Isaiah 2:5, Isaiah 10:17, Isaiah 60:19-20, Micah 7:8.
Psalm 4:6 – Let the light of Your face shine upon me.
Psalm 27:1 – The Lord is my light and my salvation.
Isaiah 60:19-20 – There is no need for physical light before God, Revelation 22:5.
God is the great illuminator: God is light, referring to His character, through which He reveals the true knowledge of Himself and reveals His salvation and His moral righteousness, (Matthew 17:5).
I am the light of the world, (John 8:12, 9:5, 12:46)
1 Timothy 6:16, 2 Peter 1:19, 1 John 1:5, 1 John 1:7
Revelation 21:23, 22:5
He is the most glorious:
Exodus 13:21-Isaiah 60:1
God gives spiritual light.
He is the source of light.
Psalm 13:13, 19:8, 27:1, 2 Corinthians 4:4
1. To believers or disciples or us, Jesus calls us light.
Matthew 5:13-16 (Mark 4:21-23, Luke 8:13-18)
Like the sun and moon.
In some ways we reveal His light to the world.
We are not the source but the reflection.
The gospel and the biblical life – not the moral life but the spiritual life)
In some ways God’s character is revealed through us.
2. God’s Word is called light, (Psalm 119:105).
It shows me the way to walk.
It shows my path.
The Word also reveals Him and His glory.
3. We are told to walk in the light – 1 John 1:7 Now what does it mean to walk in the light?
7.) God is unchanging.
God never changes in His nature.
Nothing can be added to or taken away from God.
Everything except God is changeable.
The world, you, me
From good to bad and from bad to good
From small to big and from big to small
We change and this is sometimes good in a spiritual sense, because we turn to God.
A loving God is not unloving.
God hates and keeps evil and wickedness.
Malachi 3:6, Hebrews 13:8: Let’s read …..
If God changes in His character and nature from day to day, He cannot be relied upon, for He never changes.
No one can change God in your case.
He cannot be changed in any way by bribing, cajoling, or threatening.
He (God) never changes from Himself.
He increases and does not decrease, does not increase.
He is perfect in holiness and does not need to be a little more holy or a little less holy and does not.
God’s promises do not change and leave it fulfilled.
Some Bible passages:
Numbers 23:19, 1 Samuel 15:29, Psalm 102:27, Hebrews 1:10-12, James 1:17.
These passages clearly state that God does not change, not that God cannot change.
God always works in unity with His character.
God does not change with feelings and circumstances. Ezekiel 24:14
God’s nature and work are always constant.
We can change, some things unchanged and some things changed.
We should not change doctrine.
Spiritual umbrella (of course we are not children of fornication)
Let’s not change the church, (only two reasons.. calling and wrong teaching)
Let’s not change the finished work and the idea of grace.
The Bible does not change, neither does it add to or subtract from it.
We change
From bad to good.
From the world to God.
Turning to God.

8. God is omniscient, or the omniscience of God.
God knows everything – past, present and future.
He knows everything that is real and knows everything that is possible.
God knows everything and understands everything.
Events and people past, present, future, potential, present, possible, and future, are all known.
There is also foreknowledge, predestination.
Nothing is beyond God’s knowledge. (Job 28:23-24)
God knows all things perfectly.
God cannot be surprised, cannot be surprised.
God is prepared for everything in advance.
Let’s read Psalm 139:1-6….. It explains it very well.
Genesis 6:5 God knows all the thoughts of man.
Job 21:22 Can anyone teach God?
Job 36:4 God is perfect in knowledge.
Job 36:16
Psalm 139:17-18 can also be known.
Isaiah 46:10 God’s plan and purpose remain.
Isaiah 42:9 All are in His omniscience.
Matthew 6:8 The Father knows our needs in advance.
Matthew 10:29-30 He even knows the number of hairs on the head.
Romans 11:33-8:29-Ephesians 1:11-Hebrews 4:13.
The prophecies of the Bible are true and accurate, only the omniscient God knows them, and He revealed them to His servants.
God’s promises are made beautiful by His omniscience.
He knows all the realities of my life, while I do not know, relying on Him is the best reality.
He knows my future, there is no need for worry, anxiety, or fear.
He knows my heart’s tensions, my pain, tears, and needs, and I place them in Him through prayer.
He can protect me from danger, only if I follow Him and remain in His perfect will.
God has perfect knowledge and He does not need to learn anything. God never learned and does not need to learn.
God can teach us, how to live this life, live in eternity and teach us the mysteries.
It is a very good thing to follow God who has all knowledge.
(I am going to a place where I have never been, but if I am following a person who has been to that place, traveled or has all the information about that place, how beautiful will it make my journey).
9th Character – He is omnipresent, or the omnipresence of God.
God is present in all places or everywhere at once.
There is no place where God is not .
There is nothing far or beyond God.
God is everywhere, but it is important to understand that not everywhere is God.
For example – pagans believe that,
God is everywhere and start worshiping bridges, mountains and created things.
But this is never the case.
God is everywhere, a good word is present at once.
God has no parts, and cannot be here and not there.
He cannot be divided.. Therefore, God is omnipresent in all places at once.
Let’s read Psalm 139:7-12 …….
Bible passages: 1 Kings 8:27, Psalm 95:3-5
, Jeremiah 23:23-24, Matthew 6:6,
Acts 17:27-28, Colossians 1:17,
Hebrews 1:3, Revelation 4:11
God sees everything at all times.
Matthew 28:20 – He is with us always.
I will never leave you nor forsake you – He is the omnipresent God.

So far, we have studied 9 attributes and characteristics of God.
1. God is spirit.
2. God is life.
3. God is perfect.
4. God is eternal.
5. God is wise.
6. God is light.
7. God is unchanging.
8. God is omniscient.
9. God is omnipresent.
Today we will study 5 to 6 other attributes and characteristics of God.
10. God is omnipotent.
11. God is love.
12. God is truth.
13. God is merciful.
14. God is an angry God.
15. God is infinite.
In today’s class, we will study these 6 attributes, characteristics and nature of God, which will be a very wonderful class. 10. God is omnipotent
– this is also a very important characteristic of God.
In English it is
Hebrew – Qebamambath (Qebamambash) – which means omnipotent or almighty.
In the Septuagint it is “Ebalataypachabat” – which means omnipotent and is also found in the New Testament.
Meaning – His power is unlimited and nothing else can reach that level.
God can do everything that is possible and God can also do things that are impossible.
Another important meaning,
It does not mean that God can do things that contradict himself.
For example – He cannot lie, (Titus 1:2) – God is powerful enough not to lie.
He does not change, (Malachi 3:6) – He is powerful enough not to change.
He cannot sin, (do evil or any other bad thing) – (Habakkuk 1:13-14).
God does not interfere with free will.
God does not do anything that contradicts His character, nature, and attributes, because He is the Almighty God.
God being Almighty,
does not mean that He must do and does everything He can, because He is the only wise God. It goes with wisdom.
He can do everything that is possible, nothing is impossible for Him and God can do nothing.
When God works or does anything, we can find a wonderful unity in these characters, qualities, and attributes and there is no contradiction.
As mentioned earlier – one of the names of God is “El-Shaddai”.
Which means that God is the Almighty.
Genesis 17:1 – Let’s read… A very good verse (El-Shaddai)
God makes a promise to Abraham and God is the Almighty to fulfill it.
When Abraham was 99 years old… at a time that seems impossible at this point.
God’s promises are unchangeable as He is, and He fulfilled it for Abraham.
The Greek word for this word is used in the New Testament, which we find used only for God, (some verses: 2 Corinthians 6:18, Revelation 1:8, Revelation 4:8, Revelation 11:17, Revelation 15:3, 16:7,14, 19:6,15, 21:22.
Other important passages in the Bible that speak about God’s omnipotence.
Job 37:23 – Read the verse (other verses 11:7-11)
Revelation 1:8 – That God is omnipotent.
Genesis 28:3-4 – God is omnipotent.
Job 40:2, Revelation 19:15, 15:3, Job 31:2, Psalm 147:3 and many other verses.
God is omnipotent, – God has all power in Himself and exercises all power, along with might and strength.
There is nothing that God cannot accomplish.
And He can handle all things perfectly.
I get strength from Him to change my circumstances.
He is almighty to fulfill all His promises, even if it seems impossible, it will be fulfilled, the Almighty has promised.
God is able to change everything in my family ÷ church ÷ my own life.
We can rely on Him.
Now let’s look at the 11th quality or character:
11. God is love or God’s love (Love is not God but God is love)
This topic is difficult to define, I have not seen a clear definition of love until today because God is love, that is enough. But we will try.
The closest Hebrew word for love in the Old Testament is – (azhbhav).
Which means “goodness or goodness,” affection, good reputation, loving, compassionate.
We can find it more clear in the New Testament.
In Greek – we know, there are 4 words and we know that 3 are used in the New Testament.
(1) Eros – Love, relationship, intimacy between a husband and wife. This love is not used in the New Testament.
(2) Storge – Family love.
(3) Phileo – Love between friends.
– Peter uses it. (John 21:14)
First time Jesus – Jesus Agape – Peter Phileo
Second time – Jesus Agape – Peter Phileo
Third time – Jesus Phileo – Peter Phileo
These are all good loves, but they cannot be perfected due to selfishness and sinful nature….
Eros – When used incorrectly, it leads to discord.
Storge – Also not perfect…. Can cause conflict and cannot last forever.
Phileo – When used incorrectly, it can lead to enmity….
Because these words do not describe the love of God.
Agape – The word “love” is used, which only God can do, we must first receive or accept from Him.
Agape love is perfect, it does not fail.
Self-giving
Unselfish
Unconditional
Unchangeable
God’s love beyond understanding
Unwavering
When, agape love – reigns over the other three loves, all the other three loves are beautiful…
1. And the Bible declares that
God is love in 1 John 4:8 as well as in verse 16.
2. Love comes from God. (1 John 4:7)
