Answer:
If we want the most accurate picture of God, we don’t need to look any further than Jesus Christ. In Jesus we meet God as God really is. “Anyone who has seen me,” Jesus said, “has seen the Father” (John 14:9).
Jesus Christ is the perfect revelation of the Father. “No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son [Jesus]…has made him known” (John 1:18).
Through Jesus’ words and actions, we hear and see what matters most to every human being—that God the Father loves us unconditionally. “God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16).
Even at our worst, God loves us. John continues, “For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him” (verse 17). The Father sent Jesus out of his love and his commitment to save us.
