God is Love… What Else?
Christians in Context: from orthodoxy to orthopraxy.: Sola Amor, or “Love” Alone: An Emerging Gospel:
When we decide that God is “more loving” than any other quality, we are engaging in a-Biblical, speculative theology. Despite its popularity in the postmodern church (and in sympathetic churches), speculative theology is precisely that: speculation. Due to its dependence on the fallible and wavering human mind, it is dangerous, leading us to contrived, false images of God. God as only love is one such contrived perception. The attributes and character of God are revealed to us through Scripture, and that which humans concoct about His character is powerless to affect what truly is.
