What Is the Bible Interpretation of God?

From Mrs. E. G. White, in letter to the editor . «What is the Bible interpretation of God? -God is love. By giving Christ to our world, God manifested His love for mankind. ‘God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.’ Yes, everlasting life . This is the love which is the fulfilling of the law. Only he whose heart is filled with compassion for fallen man, who loves to a purpose , showing his love by the performance of Christlike deeds, will be able to endure the seeing of Him who is invisible. He only who loves his fellow men to a purpose can know God. He who loves not those for whom the Father has done so much, knows not God. This is the reason there is so little genuine vitality in our churches. Theology is valueless unless it is saturated with the love of Christ.

«God is supreme. His love in the human heart will lead to the doing of works that will bear fruit after the similitude of the character of God.

«In the thirteenth chapter of first Corinthians the apostle Paul defines true, Christ like love. It would be well to print this chapter in small type in every paper issued from our presses. Put it in the Gospel Herald that it may preach its living sermon wherever the paper may go. This chapter is an expression of the obedience of all who love God and keep His commandments. It is brought into action in the life of every true believer.»
