The Love of God
Individual TopicsSteve Gregg
In a recent discourse, Steve Gregg expounded on the multidimensional love of God, as depicted in both the Old and New Testaments. He emphasized that God's love is unwarranted, sovereign, committed, and demanding. While we may sometimes struggle with obedience to God's commands, understanding and embracing His committed, jealous love is essential for living a fulfilling life and experiencing eternal happiness and fulfillment. Gregg maintains that this love is contagious and inspires us to love God and others.
