New Beginnings of Hoopeston Church

The god kind of love, divine, unconditional, self giving love, the essence of god's love. First John four eight says this, God is love, agape. This covenant love originates in God himself. First John four eight declares, he who does not love, what does that say? Does not know God. So if we would just stop right there and put the gospel in a nutshell and tie it into a really nice package in a bow, we could see that right there that if someone is not loving, they don't know God.
