But God is not without love and ... many other characteristics. God is complete and that can't change, so love is just one major characteristic. Not knowing and welcoming the others is .... well let us say in a place where they still have a lot to learn.
My car still has it's engine so it is still valuable as well.

I have asked some here if love is god, and some said yes, while some others danced around the question. The question got them thinking.
God is love <> Love is god
Your "my car is blue" is a good way to explain it.
And God "IS" Love.
Your belief is a concept a false one at that, a form of godliness bur denies the power .... Which is Love.

Those who miss this do not know God or do not want to know Him.
This reveals the problem, pcamps. They do NOT understand what a Spirit IS. They think only in human terms about attributes of human beings especially their emotions. They have no clue that God IS a Holy Spirit (Consciousness) and that Spirit IS agape love. They keep floundering around in the ancient ignorance of a Trinity of "persons" because they do not understand that personhood is conveyed through consciousness.

But the fruit of the Spirit(GOD IS SPIRIT) is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.

I find this incredible coming from someone who believes God is a trinity....Jesus is God....the Father is God....and the Spirit is God and the reverse.. Let me ask you a question Is God > Spirit or is Spirit > God ?. You cannot separate God from what he is, it's absurd to try and do so, so God is love (Agape) , so of if you see Agape love you are seeing God. There is not any given time when God is not love..... I know you hate the thought of this because you demand bible fundamentalism justice (shariah law) served upon all those YOU deem guilty.

Absoutely, God is love, and yes, that is not all He is . He is much greater then any love, HE is GOD !
Oh, they know about God . They just don't want to acknowledge all that God is . Because if they do then a lot of things would have to change in their lives in order to have understanding, wisdon in God's truth and a personal relationship with Him . As it stands now they have no idea what that relationship consist of and too why we read what we do in their post !
If they would truly acknowledge the truth that is wrote within the scriptures especially what Jesus taught they will see the true light in who they really are as a person and everything they represent has been a lie .
But of course that is what sin (darkness) does to a person it deceives them in their life and it covers up God's truth . Especially using the excuse you can't believe everything wrote in the Bible it has too many contradictions!
Come on, lets be real any one know when your looking for a certain thing and in this case contradictions that is what God is going to let them find because that is where their heart is focus on which is unbelief in and about God and He knows that and He knows what their really trying to do and He hides the truth from them .
I tell you Jesus had these ppl pegged long time ago and when you read their post you see this scripture coming into reality showing the truth of and why their denial, "And this is the verdict, that the light came into the world, but people preferred darkness to light, because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come toward the light, so that his works might not be exposed. But whoever lives the truth comes to the light, so that his works may be clearly seen as done in God." John 3:19-21
and you will notice they fight against this scripture all the time when it is presented to them .

There is no Biblical statement that says that God is some magical force called Love. It describes love as an attribute of God. Please stop taking that verse out of context.

Why do you think love is the theme throughout the gospels and New Testament . Jesus taught us to abide in it, Paul said be rooted and established in it, speak the truth in it, and The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love, that the love of God surpasses knowledge. God is love, God is Joy, God is peace, why do you have such a problem with God BEING these things? Please stop trying to stop God being God, there will only be one outcome..... Love will triumph over you.
For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. The spirit of love.
