1Joh4:8God is
love.
Jesus' Love for
the Father
Joh8:28So
Jesus said, “When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know
that I am the one I claim to be and that I do nothing on my own but speak just
what the Father has taught me. 29The
one who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, for
I always do what pleases him.” 30Even
as he spoke, many put their faith in him.
Joh14:28“You
heard me say, 'I am going away and I am coming back to you.' If you loved me,
you would be glad that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than
I. 29I
have told you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will
believe. 30I
will not speak with you much longer, for the prince of this world is coming. He
has no hold on me, 31but
the world must learn that I love the Father and that I do exactly what my Father
has commanded me. Come now; let us leave.” - words of Jesus
Joh15:9“As
the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10If
you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as
I have obeyed my Father's commands and remain in his love. - words of Jesus
