“God is Love.” (1 John 4:7 TPT)
In cellular biology, the protoplasm comprises all the living material in a cell, including the cytoplasm, nucleus, DNA, cell membrane, and all the organelles. It is responsible for all living processes. We are surrounded and filled by it, within and without. The term has become unpopular in modern science; it is considered too all-encompassing.
Love is another concept that is all-encompassing. Love includes faithfulness, trust, loyalty, sacrifice, desire, security, kindness, selflessness, attraction, suffering, passion, and connectedness. The generalization of the word ‘love’ may have led to overuse and dilution--but the concept of love will always be limitless.
“In him we live and move and have our being.” (Acts 17:28)
God is all inclusive and all encompassing. Everything is comprised of God and connected by God. God is Love--immeasurable, unconditional, boundless, interpersonal, responsive, relational. God is eternal--before all things, in all things, after all things. With God, within God, immersed, saturated, embraced--we live and move and have our being.
