I read the Qur’an last year. I learned about the Muslim idea
of God. God is great. God is merciful. Is God loving? Yes, but God’s love is
conditional. God loves those who do good, who are pure and clean, who are
righteous. But there is no indication that God loves unrepentant sinners. In
contrast, Paul writes that, “God’s love has been poured out into our hearts
through the Holy Spirit” and that, “Christ died for the ungodly.” He says, “God
demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ
died for us” (Rom. 5:5-8).
