This expression is NOT in the Bible.
GOD THE FATHER
Yes, 1 John 4:8 states, "God is love." This verse emphasizes the central aspect of God's nature as being love itself.
John 14:2-3
Genesis 1 verse 26 says we are the created in gods own image.
No. The knowledge of God not being mentioned comes from reading the book itself.
One example is Matthew 4:4, which says "But he answered, 'It is written: Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.'"
In Pslams 33:17
John 3:16
"The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God..." (Ps.14:1 & 53:1)
There is not specific verse that says this. It is a popular deduction of several verses that refer to us being the child of God who is king of kings and lord of lords.
That verse is found in the book of Revelation, chapter 14, verse 12 in the King James Version.
