God wants His people to love Him. This is evident from the many passages of Scripture that says so. The question I raise in this book is not so much a question of, "Should we love God?" I believe most people of God can come to an agreement on this point, but rather of the question, "How is loving God expressed by us?" I think this is where we would find a difference of understanding in our expression to Him. From the Scriptures, we learn that God is a covenant-making God and He is the One who institutes the covenant we have with Him. He is the One who instituted the covenant of marriage in human institutions to give us an earthly touch of what it means to have a covenant with Him and He is the One who institutes the covenant we have with Him: which is likened to the marriage covenant! How then is that marriage covenant we have with God to be walked out? That is the essence of this book.
