I understand creation as man was created male and female. And it was God’s will for man to live on earth forever, with no pain, suffering, hunger. That man name everything on the earth and live in complete harmony with nature.
 
Love came from the very depth of God’s being, for he is love. He made us in his image and gave us his own attributes. He made us for love and from love, and he created us to seek him and to love him and so that he himself could pour out his love into the center of our being. When we respond to his love and enter into a relationship with him, we begin on a path of love which leads back to him.

Check out Theology of the Body. Essentially, from the very first Man was made with the capacity and the purpose of giving himself as a complete and total gift. Part of the reason that God said “It is not good for the man to be alone” is that there was no one for Adam to give himself to.

That complete giving of self is Love. It was there from the start.

Yes, and Love comes from God for He is Love.
 
God is love. God has always been, He is eternal, He did not “begin”. God made us in His image.

Now, many of us confuse love with pleasure or lust or an emotion. Love is an act of will.
 
Love is sensation or feeling which shows emotion and sensitivity.

Devil can manifest the feeling and will of human. I see people love witch, magician or evil like person, or Christians love unbelievers; etc.

God create all. Bible verse.

What is church’s teaching?

Could it be that God loves each and everyone of us as he loves himself?

Jesus died for us. This must mean that Jesus loves us as he loves himself.

Was this planned before the creation of the universe began?
