He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

1 John 4:16
And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

Why is it that the multitude of places where God refers to Himself as as Holy and where Angels refer to God as Holy and where prophets refer to God as Holy and where the apostles refer to God as Holy and where demons refer to God as Holy that in those places only an attribute is spoken of but in the one place that God is said to be love this must be His nature?

Is the wording different?

What makes something "holy"? Holiness itself. Therefore, while God is holy... we don't read that God is "holiness" itself. However, the Bible tells us that God is love. That's a very absolute statement. Now, if God IS love itself... that's the very essence of His nature. Love.

Does one place specificly say that love is His nature?

God is love. The God who is love is also holy. But He isn't holiness itself. In fact, anything set aside and separated for God's purposes is also holy.

Are you saying that God is not love? If you don't want to believe that God is love... that's entirely up to you.
