John 3:16
King James Version
16 For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
1 John 4:16
King James Version
16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he
that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
It is natural for God to love since it is His nature. For this reason, He loves us, humans,
even though we are sinners and unfaithful to Him. He may get angry for a while due to
our sins, but He is always willing to forgive and give us a second chance.
Moreover, those who believe and follow Him are expected to exhibit the same
character. It means that Bible-believing Christians must also love others around us.
2. We are His creations.
Colossians 1:16
King James Version
16 For by Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible
and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all
things were created by Him, and for Him:
Another obvious reason why He loves humans is because we are His creations. Through
Christ, He has created everything. Who would create something intricate and beautiful
yet hate it? How much more if it has life. For someone whose nature is love, it would be
impossible for Him to be distant from His creations.
In addition, it is just like how a parent to their children. Knowing that these kids are
from them, they will naturally love these children with all their lives. It is the same with
God. He is our Father in heaven, so He loves us.
1 John 4:19
King James Version
19
We love Him, because He first loved us.
