"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." (1 John 4:16)
God is clearly "the Lord, the righteous judge", but He is also "the God of love and peace". Not only in our text verse but also in another place, we are reminded that "God is love". Of all the attributes of God, His nature of love is the most definitive. God is love! It was not His omnipotence nor His omniscience that constrained Him to create men and women in His image. It must have been His nature of love, the desire for fellowship with beings like Himself. There is not much revealed on this question--only hints. "I have created him for my glory"
A man attempting to daily die to himself and become the true servant of the Lord and not his flesh.
