(C-5) God’s Love
Premise:
[God's] love for the elect may be somewhat different from that for the non-elect, but His love for the latter is still genuine. God demonstrates His love for all people in four ways: through His common grace, through His compassion, through His admonitions to the lost, and through His gospel offer to them.” –John MacArthur
In the Greek language there are several different words for our English word “love.” We do not love our favorite sports team in the same way that we love our spouse. In the same way, although God has a type of love for all men, He has a special, salvific love for His elect.
