Here are some quotes from our visitors about loving god:
... because he gives them corn and wine, and not for his intrinsic excellencies. we must love god more for what he is, than for what he bestows. true love is not mercenary.
... because they are expected to do so. people won't buy at their store or hire their services as an attorney if they are "ungodly" and it is a chance
... because god first hath loved us. nos ergo diligamus quoniam deus prior dilexit nos 4:20. if any man say: i love god , and hateth his brother; he is a liar .

Facts on god and church:
Theologians attempt to explicate (and in some cases systematize) beliefs some express their own experience of the divine. Theologians ask questions such as, 'What is the nature of God?' What does it mean for God to be singular? If people believe in God as a duality or trinity, what do these terms signify? Is God transcendent, immanent, or some mix of the two? What is the relationship between God and the universe, and God and mankind?
Judaism, Christianity and Islam see God as a being who created the world and rules over the universe. God is usually held to have the properties of holiness (separate from sin and incorruptible), justness (fair, right, and true in all His judgments), sovereignty (unthwartable in His will), omnipotence (all-powerful), omniscience (all-knowing), omnibenevolence (all-loving), omnipresence (present everywhere at the same time), and immortality (eternal and everlasting). He is also believed to be transcendent, meaning that He is outside space and outside time, and therefore eternal and unable to be changed by earthly forces or anything else within His creation.
