God is Love: The Evidence

God is love;
1 John 4:16

6 Examples:

1- The Bible begins & ends the same. In the opening story God leans over & breathes the breath of Life into Adam. In the last story God leans over & wipes away all tears from the eyes of the saints. In between it's pages God is leaning over the balcony of heaven to touch you by telling you what He thinks of you.
.... the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.
James 5:11

2- God sings a song to the redeemed.
The LORD hath taken away thy judgments, ... even the LORD, is in the midst of thee: thou shalt not see evil any more....The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty;...he will joy over thee with singing.
Zephaniah 3:15,17

3- God HIMSELF will wipe away all tears.
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes;
Revelation 21:4

4- God will surround Himself for eternity with His redeemed....for their place of abode is connected to the House of God (His Sanctuary).
In my Father's house are many mansions:
John 14:2

5- Christ has washed you clean in His own Blood.
And from Jesus Christ...the first begotten of the dead,...Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,...
Revelation 1:5
 
6- He cares about your 1) Personal 2) Physical & 3) spiritual well being.
Beloved,
I wish above all things that thou 1) mayest prosper 2) and be in health,
 3) even as thy soul prospereth......Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing?
and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father.
But the very hairs of your head are all numbered....
...ye are of more value than many sparrows.
3 John 1:2/Matthew 10:29-31
 
SUMMARY:
But I trust I shall shortly see thee,
and we shall speak face to face.
3 John 1:14
