Such a love would meet and fulfil all the ends of the law, Matthew 22:37-40 Romans 13:8-10. Holy love in man would make the whole heart and soul supremely delight in and obey God, and cordially and practically love all beings according to their character-the good with fellowship of soul, and the evil with a Christ-like benevolence. It is shown in all his works and ways, and dictated his holy law, but is most signally displayed in the gospel, John 3:16. Between the three Persons of the Godhead, love is unutterable full, perfect, and blissful towards holy angels and Christians, God's love is an infinite fatherly complacency and affection towards sinners, it is immeasurable compassion. Love is a chief attribute of Jehovah, the length and breadth and height and depth of which are beyond comprehension, for they are infinite, Ephesians 3:18,19. GOD IS LOVE AND HE THAT DWELLETH IN LOVE DWELLETH IN GOD, AND GOD IN HIM, 1 John 4:16.
