Pastor John, can you please explain why in your search for the definition of love, you didn’t mention the one clear definition of love The Bible gives us? I love hearing your perspective on various topics, but this one actually created more confusion than clarity, I felt. I think God made very clear what the essence and characteristics of love are. God is Love, and so God is all of these things: ”Love is patient, love is kind, love is not jealous, it does not boast, it does not become conceited, it does not behave dishonorably, it is not selfish, it does not become angry, it does not keep a record of wrongs, it does not rejoice at unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth, bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.“ ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭13‬:‭4‬-‭7‬ ‭LEB‬‬

God says He desires and wills the salvation of all and He can change all of our hearts to believe and obey Him easily and He will do ALL of His pleasure according to the Bible. He says He will restore all, make all new, wipe tears from all faces and will eventually be “All in all!” Not one verse says God can’t forgive after death and many verses say He will, the gates of the New Jerusalem will “never be shut.” The gospel was preached to those who are dead, He went and preached to the spirits in prison…Behold, I make all things new!

Answer: God. God has a name. His name is Jesus Christ. Christ is 'God in the Flesh.' Open your Bible, and read all about Jesus in the Gospels. In and through Christ, we learn all about God's divine agape love. Blessings. Pastor John

Matthew 11:25-30( Come to Me, and I will give you rest) "25 At that time Jesus(😊1st❤) declared, " I thank you, Father( God😊100%❤, our Father in heaven), Lord of heaven and earth, that yoi have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed😊❤ them😊❤ to little children😊❤; 26 yes, Father(God😊100%❤, our father in heaven), for such was your gracious 😊❤ will😊❤. 27 All things have been handed over to me by my Father( God😊❤, our Father in heaven) except the Son(Jesus😊1st❤) and anyone to whom the Son(Jesus😊1st❤) chooses to reveal him. 28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke😊❤ upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For( Because) my yoke😊❤ is easy😊❤ , and my burden is light😊❤."( Matthew 11:25-30 ESV Study Bible)

Genesis 25:29-34 ( Esau sells his birthright) "29 Once when Jacob😊❤ was cooking stew, Esau came in from the field, and he was exhausted. 30 And Esau said to Jacob😊❤ , " Let me eat some of that red stew( " red stew, there was reason behind this i think, could it be a family member perhap had died at their time i was told before in the past by other? ) for I am exhausted! "( Therefore his name was called Edom.) 31 Jacob😊❤ said, " Sell me your birthright now." 32 Esau said, " I am about to die; of what use is a birthright to me? " 33 Jacob said, " Swear to me now." So he swore to him and sold his birthright to Jacob. 34 Then Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil stew( red beans soup( stew), ) and he ate and drank and rose and went his way. Thus Esau despised his birthright( Hebrew 12:16) ."( Genesis 25:29-34 ESV Study Bible) In ESV study Bible, the phase said "... Thus Esau despises his birthright"( Genesis 25:34 b ESV Study Bible) " Esau was contemptious of his firstborn status. On tbe basis of this, Hebrews 12:16 " 16 that no one is sexually immoral or unholy like Esau, who sold his birthright for a single meal, "( Hebrews 12:16 ESV Study Bible) So Hebrews describes Esau as " unholy"( Hebrew 12:16a). Esau did not appreciate that his birthright was linked to God's plan of redeemption( " redeemption" remember of Ephesians 1:7 from the Bible) for the whole world."( ESV Study Bible) Ephesians 1:7 "7 In him(Jesus😊1st❤) we have redeemption through his( Jesus') blood😊❤, the forgiveness😊❤ of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace😊❤, "( ESV Study Bible) Under Ephesians 1:3-14( Spiritual blessings in Christ(Jesus😊1st❤)) Ephesians 1:8-10( point us back to Jesus😊1st❤) "8 which he(Jesus😊1st❤lavishes upon us (😊❤ 😊❤ 😊❤😊❤ 😊❤ 😊❤ 😊❤ in Christ), in all wisdom😊❤ and (all) insight😊❤ 9 making😊❤ known😊❤ to us(😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤) the mystery😊❤ of his will😊❤, according to his 😊❤ purpose😊❤( remembering of Romans 8:28😊❤too now too in Christ) , which he set😊❤ forth😊❤ in Christ(Jesus😊1st❤) 10 as a plan for the fullness😊❤ of time 😊❤, ( you might ask to do what?) to unite😊❤ all things😊❤ in him( Jesus😊1st❤ t) things in heaven😊❤ and on earth😊❤."( Ephesians 1:8-10 ESV Study Bible) Romans 8:28 "28 And we know😊❤ that for those who(😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤) love❤😊 God😊100%❤ all 😊❤ things😊❤ work😊❤ together(😊❤) for good😊❤, ( you might ask, why? ) for( because😊❤) those who 😊❤ are 😊❤ called😊❤ according 😊❤ to his( God's😊❤) purpose😊❤."( Romans 8:28 ESV Study Bible. Amen in Christ😊❤)

The essence of love is God. Not happiness or joy, yes they're different we agree on that, but God. Did you think Job was joyful? He still didn't curse God. John 15:5 for scriptural support. Edited. 5:33 AZ time
