HOW JEHOVAH EXPRESSES HIS LOVE

 For untold ages, Jehovah and his beloved Son forged a bond of deep love and affection. Their relationship is the closest in the universe. Jehovah clearly expressed his love for Jesus, as we read Matthew 17:5. Jehovah could have simply said, 'This is the one whom I have approved.' However, he he wanted us to know how much he loves Jesus, so he called him "my son, the beloved." Jehovah was proud of who Jesus was and of what he was about to do. (Ephesian 1:7) And Jesus had no doubts about his Father's feelings for him. Jehovah's love was so real to Jesus that he could feel it deep inside. He repeatedly expressed with confidence that the Father loved him.


Jehovah also confirms his love for the anointed. (Read Romans 5:5) Notice the expression "poured out." One reference work describes it as "come upon us like a stream." What a powerful image to highlight the abundance of Jehovah's love for the anointed. The anointed know that they are "loved by God." (Jude 1) Is Jehovah's love limited to the anointed? No, Jehovah has proved his love for all of us.
