The Lord desires to immerse you (baptize you) in this today: that God is Truth (Jesus) to you firstly; and in this— he brings his manifest fullness of his LOVE (Jesus) unto you. And he has a long quoted word at the end of this.
This, likely, could have been a stand alone blog (and to those who desire to read versus listen— it is available as such). But the Lord desires for both the visual learners, as well as the auditory learners— to both have access to the ease of their learning style brought forward in this: so hence— a blog and recording both.

“God is….Love AND Truth.”
Something that has bothered me for a LONG time, is this: that the church has exalted ‘God is love,’ above, and almost supremely above, all else that God ‘is,’ including Truth (and even Justice): when it is the truth that makes us free, as the goodness or kindness of God— causes us to turn to his face once again.
It is true that over Faith and Hope— Love is elder or supreme: but what of Truth (that is not listed), or of Justice (that is not listed in those verses)? And yet— God’s throne habitation (all that heaven and the kingdom of God rests and abides in) —is justice and godly judgment: and before his face, continually, is mercy and truth (mercy ‘and’ truth).
I say all of that above, because of one statement that God has spoken to me:
“Many will perish knowing that God is love, Janet.”
So….. Why is that? What is the reason that man shall know God is love— but never come into his love, salvation, or recovery— and instead perish within?
Questions burned within me of discontent at this; and so I began to ask more questions, and search out the matter with him (to dig).
What is the definition of Love in the Strong’s for the verses that declare, God is love?
1 John 4:16
“And we have known and believed the love that God has toward us. God is love; and he that dwells in love— dwells in God, and God in him.”
It’s ‘he who dwells in love— dwells in God.’ So my next question was— how does one dwell in love, and what does that mean (realizing that love— is Jesus and his ways).
G26 – Love (Agape)
reek: ἀγάπη
Transliteration: agapē
Pronunciation: ag-ah'-pay
Definition: From G25; love that is affection or benevolent; specifically (plural) a love feast: (a feast of) charity ([-ably]) dear love.
KJV Usage: love (86x), charity (27x), dear (1x), charitable (with G2596) (1x), feast of charity (1x).
God saves us by his love (and love expressed in image— is Jesus Christ, YahShua ha mashiach). He came for us, lived, died, and lives yet for us— to make intercessions and union between us and God the Father: for those who are given to him in their love returned (this is to cut, and uphold a covenant).
So, then, what is it to love God?
He loves us, even when swimming in our darkest sin —he died for us; but yet lives— to recover us from that sin, and set us free in his truth and love. But what is it to love God back?
We see that love is the greatest of these: and it is true: Love— he said, is the greatest of hope, faith, and love.
1 Corinthians 13:13
“And now abides faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.”
The greatest— what does that mean?
Well, let’s see what Faith and Hope have as definitions in the Strong’s first.
Faith — persuasion, conviction —toward the truthfulness or truth of God, to have reliance upon Christ Jesus in constancy, and in truth itself; with assurance of belief, and fidelity. [G4102]
Hope —anticipate with pleasure, and expectation or confidence. [G1680]
Love/Charity —affection and or benevolence, a love feast or meal (root of feast is— joyous & fiesta). [G26]
So, we have— out of the persuasion and conviction of the truthfulness of God, plus the reliance upon Jesus Christ himself in constancy or consistency— we have an assurance of our belief and his fidelity toward us. But, as well as our trust in him, we have our anticipation with pleasure and expectation that we have confidence in him for all good things (even he himself): these are the definitions of faith and hope.
But, it is benevolent affection, as a joyous meal (feasting of him) that we (spiritually) partake in/with him (toward all) —that is the greatest.
It is a joyous meal of God, with God, in benevolent affections toward ‘others,’ that is the greatest (or as Strong’s G3187 states— the elder) of all things we can walk in: because benevolent affections, and joyously feasting on God (what he is, as he is [the fruit of him]), and bringing this meal to others— is the highest and greatest narrow walk of righteousness— that we could ever attain to; (it is a fullness of God within us in stature). And so— of faith, hope or love; love— or living as Jesus lives (with him in union, as one) in maturity— is the greatest narrow walk of righteous living toward God and mankind— that we could ever bestow unto both.
It is the love/goodness/kindness of God (Romans 2:4, goodness = kindness, which is Jesus Christ himself) that causes a man to repent (change around— through his leadership, handiwork, and Spirit).
It is love (the Father) that sent the Son/Lamb to us all— who is the fullness of God’s expressed love— in a person (and he taught us— the way).
It is love that fulfilled Calvary.
It is love that came to us first— that we should know him/love, walk and abide in him, and be transformed by him inside and out.
It is love that is truth, and truth that is love (for he is both in the way, truth and life of God himself).
It is love/truth/Jesus that corrects a man— because God loves this man.
It is love/truth that warns a man.
It is love/truth that will require a man to be true, and just, honest, and walk with character and integrity: for God is Love, Truth, Righteousness, and Holy: this is the Life/Light of God.
Love (Jesus Christ) —is so full, and so vast, and encompasses every aspect of God: All things that are God —reside deep within his love and truth (all things within Jesus Christ): It can be said of both Love and Truth (the Godhead), that within/of God abides….

Righteousness (and more)
Not one characteristic of God more important than another; for ALL OF GOD— is the totality of him; and is who/what saves us, and returns us to him in perfected union.
There is a well-roundedness to God, that I believe we will be encountering and meeting for all of eternity; as he rolls himself out to us in revelation of himself: as he calls us deeply into himself to know him, and be known of him.
One of the aspects of Love himself is that he walks and abides in Truth: and justice and judgment are the place he abides; and mercy (forgivenesses) and truth go before his face continually. That means— he perceives all things through the lens of much forgiveness, and holds to the truth at the same time. He walks/lives in justice and judgment— what a man chooses to live with/as —is what he will be judged by: if we live with God in love toward God and others— we will reap the goodness (kindness) of God. But if we walk in no love toward God or others— we will reap his severity (for we are enemies of love and truth).
Mercy AND truth go before him— continually: not one or the other. The truth is God, and the mercy is God; and if we abide not in truth and unmerited forgiveness (mercy), we abide not in God, nor God in us.
Psalm 89:14
“Justice and judgment are the habitation of your throne: mercy and truth shall go before your face.”
H2617 – Mercy
Hebrew: חסד
Transliteration: chêsêd
Pronunciation: kheh'-sed
Definition: From H2616; kindness; by implication (towards God) piety; reproof, beauty.
KJV Usage: mercy (149x), kindness (40x), lovingkindness (30x), goodness (12x), kindly (5x), merciful (4x), favour (3x), good (1x), goodliness (1x), pity (1x), reproach (1x), wicked thing (1x).
Romans 11:22
“Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity [G663: decisive rigor— extremely thorough in strictness]; but toward you— goodness [G5544: excellence in character or demeanor, gentleness and kindness], IF you continue in [G5544: excellence in character or demeanor, gentleness and kindness] goodness: otherwise you also shall be cut off.”
(regarding the natural branches removed for unbelief and irreverence; and for the grafted in to walk in the fear of the Lord— lest they be cut off too, for not continuing in goodness).
Psalm 61:6-8
“You will prolong the king's life: and his years as many generations. He shall abide before God forever: Oh (Lord) prepare mercy and truth— which may preserve him. So I will sing praise unto your name forever— that I may daily perform my vows [H5088: promises].”
We are to fulfill our vows (as priests, we are priests and kings) unto him; which is our side of the covenant relationship upheld unto him, from our part: requited love as he desired of us— through obedience to his Word (truth/Jesus).
Psalm 100:5
“For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth (the Word of God, person of God, Jesus Christ and his ways) endures unto all generations.”
He has been given.
He endures.
He is merciful.
He is good.
He is for us.
Are we for him, given to the truth, the person of the Word of God, scrubbed by him, and made whole and free in his truth?
The love of God is to set a man free— in and by the truth: a man will never come ‘into’ the love of God— without coming ‘into’ the TRUTH, first: I know this from experience, and not only that; but because it is the truth— that frees the mind, emotions, beliefs, reasoning, and brings the fear of the Lord in reverence of him; that his love is provided to us— to bring us into all truth, which makes a man FREE!!
All healing and deliverance— is getting the truth in (Jesus Christ the person, and Word of God) —and getting this man to be FILLED with the truth: all deliverance— is to deliver a man into the truth— which makes him free. So— all deliverance takes places, within a man— when every man of God shall couple with the truth of God (the person of Jesus Christ, and his ways): it’s his ways exalted within, and a man finding himself or herself living within Christ Jesus, and Christ Jesus— living within them— that will save a man to the uttermost; (where the truth has made them free, washed them thoroughly, brought them into returned union with God; and they NOW— KNOW— the manifest love of God).
The goodness and kindness of God causes a man to turn toward his face again (repent), and be changed by his glory, image, likeness, and character of his person. It is the truth of God (Jesus Christ and the way of God and godliness exalted) —that brings a man into the fullness of God’s love, as he liberates them from the dark realms and deeds of oppression and deception.
TRUTH— liberates a man, so that the FULLNESS of the love of God can swallow a man up in all he is: to be fully embraced, immersed in his love— a man will— ‘keep his commandments (truth that sets free):’ that is— guard the truth and his leadership in our lives, bury it/him and his headship— deep down inside oneself, exalt the truth, and be freed (and remain freed) by the truth (the person of Jesus Christ in righteousness, within).
After he said— “Many will perish knowing that God is love, Janet.” He spoke more to me to type out, and that is below.
_______________________________
A word from YahShua
_______________________________
“Many will perish knowing that I am love, and yet never will they walk in love/mercy/kindness and TRUTH, both. There is no love outside of truth: true love does not exist outside of truth. I am— the Way, the Truth, and the only true Life; and those who will not come and abide in love AND truth— will perish, dear.
I am statements are strewn throughout the great scriptures, dear. And I am the Truth, as much as I am the Love: truth AND love.
Without one— we walk askew: without truth— people will live affection and benevolence in all things, and yet I never asked my people to walk in affection for the ways of the flesh; but indeed called my people out of that— the lusts and affections of the flesh nature—have no part in it. And without love— people will walk self-righteously against their brother, bashing them over the head with scripture; all the while devoid of ever coming into the truth: love, mercy, grace, and kindness: lack of BOTH truth or love —are detrimental situations, and cause the ‘severity’ of God to come forth.
For if a man continue in iniquity— lawlessness against my Spirit, Lordship, and Kingship— and yet claim my name; and will walk contrary to my Love AND truth; this man deceives his own soul, and will receive the recompense of his reward, for which he labored: a righteous judgment of —what a man sows, that shall he reap back upon himself: I am not mocked: sow love AND truth— reap he who is love and truth (merciful, kind, forgiving, affectionate, benevolent, who walks in godliness of character, disposition, and demeanor of the statutes and precepts of God) —back toward you. But should a man walk outside of my Spirit, and my Spirit’s fruit of person in their life— they have chosen foolishly to lean upon their own understanding, judgments, and counsels— never coming through the cleansing of the truth (the Word); and indeed have walked as my opposition, and brought forth a lawlessness toward me and the brethren.
I am not remiss to say— without truth— love cannot come forward: for without knowing me who walks in integrity of character, righteousness, with a stellar disposition, demeanor, and traits— one cannot love as I love: for one must be converted and returned to my image and likeness within. For a love of any other kind— is not godly love, but indeed— the love of the world, through its wisdom (that is devilish and sensual, not godly, righteous, and true).
I have a standard, dear— that I am perfecting in my people: it is the fruiting out of my Spirit within them, to bring forth results (fruit, as I am): love, joy, peace, patience, kindness (meekness), goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (temperance): against (or opposed to) such —there is no law (hence— lawlessness if one will not uphold these and others of my Spirit).
Without these fruits present in a man— he is still in need of resuming my image and likeness (which means— reformation through repentance, and giving all their strength to love me as I have asked— is in need).
Galatians 5:22-26
“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law (and indeed— lawlessness). And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.”
(let’s break these attributes/fruit of the Spirit down: these are the Strong’s definitions)
Love = benevolent affection in kindnesses/goodness, one toward the other; this is to do the right thing for all —as it is called forth: it varies with every situation.
Joy = cheerful and calm delight, gladness.
Peace = quiet rest + set at one again. It is godly order where chaos once reigned; where we are now one in Spirit and order.
Long suffering = forbearance, fortitude: Forbearance is the act of showing restraint and tolerance— particularly when faced with difficulty, provocation, or adversity. It involves patience, self-control, and a willingness to endure challenges without reacting negatively. Fortitude— is a strength of mind and spirit that allows one to face adversity with courage and resilience. It encompasses bravery, endurance, and the ability to persevere in the face of pain or hardship.
Meekness = gentle humility lived and walked.
Goodness = virtue— beneficence, which means— the principle of doing good and acting in ways that promote the well-being of others; with emphasis upon the moral obligation to help, support, and benefit others, through actions that prevent harm, remove existing harm, or provide positive assistance.
Faithfulness = persuasion, conviction —toward the truthfulness or truth of God, to have reliance upon Christ Jesus in constancy, and in truth itself; with assurance of belief, and fidelity.
Gentleness = moral excellence in character and demeanor, kindness.
Temperance (self-control) = continence, which means— self restraint.
So, dear— I am attempting to procure these character traits within a people of God holy, true, and righteous: and that IS the love of God to save to the uttermost: I am working to reform man into my image and likeness once again: where 2 —can become 1, as the Father and Son are one.
My Workmanship to Finish
I am endeavoring to be toward them, and call forth in them…. Love ‘through’ TRUTH upheld and buried deep within them: Benevolent affection in kindnesses/goodness, one toward the other, to do the right thing for all —as it is called forth— as it varies with every situation.
I am endeavoring to be toward them, and call forth in them….
Joy = cheerful and calm delight, gladness, brought to them from myself; and called forward from within them (from my throne) toward others.
I am endeavoring to be toward them, and call forth in them….
Peace = to be quiet and at rest, set at one (together, like/same) again. To bring godly order where chaos once reigned; but where we are now one in Spirit and order— within them.
I am endeavoring to be toward them, and call forth in them….
Long suffering = forbearance and fortitude: that they should show restraint and tolerance in dealing with all— particularly when faced with difficult people or situations, provoking people or situations, or adversity; walking in, and walking out— patience, self-control, and a willingness to endure these challenges (tests) without reacting negatively. And with strength of mind and spirit that allows each man of God to face adversity with courage and resilience; encompassing bravery, endurance, and the ability to persevere in the face of pain or hardship.
I am endeavoring to be toward them, and call forth in them….
Meekness = a gentle humility procured deep within them, lived and walked out; where I have the strength of a warhorse within, but the gentleness of a dove toward God and others.
I am endeavoring to be toward them, and call forth in them….
Goodness = virtue, where I am building within my people a beneficence; which means— I am working to create within my people the principles of doing good and behaving in ways that promote ‘the well-being’ of others. This is placing others— above yourselves, and with an emphasis upon walking out the moral obligation to help (when we do indeed have the ability to help); and to bring support, and benefit to others— through our actions that could either prevent their harm, or remove existing harm— by providing positive assistance.
I am endeavoring to be toward them, and call forth in them….
Faithfulness = persuasion, conviction —toward the truthfulness or truth of God, and to have reliance upon Christ Jesus in constancy, and in truth itself— with assurance of belief, and fidelity. I am working a workmanship within my people that will create people of God who know their God— in his truth. Where I have a people are confident in the Spirit, not in the flesh. Where I have a people who know me in the hidden— and see me provide in the realm of the Spirit and in the temporal realm (for what they have seen in the closet, will be manifest to the naked eye in the temporal). I am working a workmanship within my people to create a people of great confidence in me, reliance upon Jesus Christ and the Kingdom of God; as I walk in fidelity toward my people: for whom has cut a covenant with me— I shall uphold my side of the Covenant. And I ask the same of them— from their end: which is to couple with my Spirit, allow and work with me in my reformations within them; and to give all their strength to walk with my works.
I am endeavoring to be toward them, and call forth in them….
Gentleness = moral excellence in character and demeanor, kindness: THIS— I am working into an obedient, submissive people— who seek to love me back as I have asked of them: to love me is to obey my headship within them, live as I live, be as I be; for in this— we are one, and they are with me: I ask for covenant upholding, and reverence to my face and headship. For my people are those who desire to be with me where I am, as I am: it is a total and complete overhaul of, and from, love AND truth: both.
I am endeavoring to be toward them, and call forth in them….
Temperance (self-control) = continence, which means— self restraint. I am making disciples, dear: disciplined ones under me.
Can you see I have always asked for an obedient and reverent people to father? Can you see that I have always needed to redeem AND reform my people? For this is the soul's removal from an enemy kingdom, and an opposing force against me and my way, truth, and life.
I have a workmanship to bring forward, and love will always lead the way, dear: but note— my love shall make a man free through the upholding of the truth within them. Without upholding the truth within them— they cannot abide in my love, nor my love abide in them.
So, you are right to be saddened and confused about the singular mention of love only to my people. I DO seek to heal them and love them back to wholeness, but child: that is done through the freeing of their souls, by the truth that shall make them free, as they come into my love and truth, and abide there.
My love— is always, as is my truth: both exist for my people. My truth brings in my ways, statutes, precepts, conduct, disposition, demeanor, and fruit attributes of my Spirit. My love brings in the absolute benevolence that I have for my people; in that I will always do WHAT IS RIGHT UNTO THEM, the best, most helpful, benevolent, successful, just, kind, generous, beneficial actions/works toward them: but that does not mean it will always be easy, or likeable unto them: it is indeed— what is best for them, not what they necessarily ‘desire,’ at all times.
I would not be loving them— if I did not bring them into the truth. And the truth I am bringing them into— is all the above described workmanship (and then some), that I detailed above.
It would be loveless— to not require my people to come into godliness; for it would be exalting a lawlessness against our original (and my) nature: that of holiness and righteousness.
It would be loveless— to let them perish in their own ways, and do nothing to bring the love of correction to them.
Dear— I understand your heart. You see many posts about my love, to which you adore. But simultaneously— you fear for them if they do not understand that part of my love— is a complete expectation of an overhaul to come forth within them; where they resume my image and likeness once again; and become an obedient people to my headship.
I assure you— without change, nothing has changed of the old man— this is true. And I seek a garment change, a wineskin change, and a new wine to come forth within them: my vintage, detailed out in an intimacy of the fruit of my Spirit, conduct, and ways— birthed out within them. And I am working within many of them in love AND truth.
We will continue to bring the balanced fullness of this revelation to my people: and a bride from within them— shall come forth, clean, and ironed out.
These messages and teaching are crucial: for the wayward church (and I mean that with kindness, even) will have a focus upon one or the other, and emphasis of one or the other, generally; and at the detriment of the body of Christ in the earth.
Jesus, dear, was required to abide in truth and love, as the scripture states; and so shall my mature ones who burn within my love and truth. I have a heart of love and truth (sincerity of my Spirit fruit and conduct), dear: both are very important.
You have not erred in this— but I assure you, I am, and will— bring my work to a completion: and the things that will pour upon the earth— will help with this: as my people return to me in reverence, and with full effort. It will be a time of reckoning— what is truly lived within: and that, dear, is what saves a man to the uttermost— when he faces his God again, in sincerity and truth: that is how a child of God shall love me back.
If I gave, and sent forth in the Son— the love of God— in his obedience to my will.
Then I am asking, in return, for the love of man to be given back to me, by coming under the Son of man, the high King and Priest now; and be obedient to my will as well: and the suffering taught him obedience. The things my people suffer, teaches them to come to me, and to exalt the truth within them: the truth, dear. It is the truth exalted within them that frees them: and this is what upsets you about an unbalanced understanding of my love. It is the love of God to bring the way to you, the life of Jesus to you, the truth to be lived to you all: for in this— is your freedom; when you come into the life, as he is— the way— and walk therein following him, this is truth lived: then— shall you abide fully in my love, holiness, righteousness, and rest.
Because, dear, it is they who have crucified the self focused, in opposition and affiliation with evil spirits— flesh nature, including its lusts and affections (that’s love for the wrong things/persons, not me, nor my way or demeanor and fruit); who are living in and by the Spirit of God. So, these people of mine— shall walk in the Spirit, as I am: let us not be in vain glory— but walking and abiding under my shadow in the glory or dignity of my person: this is the oneness I ask of my people, to exalt within themselves.
Provoking one another, coupling with satan, causing discord, believing lies or evil (about self or others), not walking in my Spirit’s fruit of conduct and ways, being envious or jealous, short tempered, undisciplined, wallowing in self pity (this is self exaltation/pride)... these are not my ways, nor of my leading, nor in my image or likeness; and indeed— are deeds of workmanship that has yet to be recovered within a vessel: these are areas in which I, and the human, cannot be as one (and many other ways in which we are hindered, are ways in which I do not operate).
So, dear, you are correct: in order for my LOVE to reach them, in full freedom release of the captive soul, mind, and heart of man— who is held in bondage by the enemy realm. I MUST bring forth my truth to them. For it is the truth that makes them free. I must show where their affiliations are askew: and bid them to align with me within: for then— shall they know the love of God toward them, in my pursuit to save them to the uttermost; by whatever means is necessary— unto each’s betterment, according to my just judgment.
My love is expressed— by bringing my Truth (Jesus Christ) to all; and to bid them to come under him, align with him, and become one with him: this is a bride who shall marry him; and where 2, truly, become 1, together, in one flesh vessel upon the earth: for this took place in the Spirit, first.
My love— CANNOT COME FORWARD IN FULL; till my people come into the truth: in the truth they are set free. And as they abide in my truth— they become one with me as I am: and in this, in Jesus, in this way— is the manifest love of God revealed— IN FULL.
Tell my people— I desire nothing less than the FULLNESS of my love and union to come forward unto them: and it will be through exaltation of the truth, as it makes them free as they bind themselves to my truth (Jesus and the ways of God) —that they shall encounter the depths of my transforming love.
I must have them exalt both; for even you know— it was the truth that set you free to be in my love; when you chose to exalt my truth within (the person of Jesus, and his ways of absolute truth).
I desire nothing less for them, either; than that they should be set free in my truth, and experience my love to the fullest!”
—YahShua, the lover of your souls
And Savior to the uttermost by
The way, the truth, and my life
