"Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God, for God is love." 1 John 4:7-8"

The trouble is, too many (including the author here)read this passage and then go on to define God by their personal, worldly notions of love rather than defining love by what the Bible tells us of God.

True. But I’ve also seen folks come up with some quite different definitions of love by their personal notions of what the Bible tells us of God.
