'God is love'

ok,

Quote:'God is jealous'

Exodus 20:5
Deuteronomy 5:9
Deuteronomy 6:15
1 Kings 19:10
1 Kings 19:14
Indeed.

Quote:'Love is not jealous'

1 Corinthians 13:4
4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

So, where in 1 cor 13 does it say God is bound to this expectation of love?

Paul is Clearly speaking to the people of Corinth about the "Love your neighbor as your self" command and how this trumps all other Spiritual gifts... In order for your arguement to work you must show that what Paul says to us, applies to God.

Let's cut to the chase, Drich. What you appear to be saying is that "jealousy" is not a property of love as it applies to us, but it could be when applied to your god, who is not described as possessing love, but rather BEING love?

Seriously? And you guys wonder why we say you can make the damn book say anything you want it to.
