Proverbs 15:24-16:33
By steadfast love and faithfulness iniquity is atoned for,
and by the fear of the LORD one turns away from evil.Proverbs 16:6
Steadfast love and faithfulness: two exceptional qualities, both of which are evidenced by actions, not just feelings, and both of which the LORD displays in abundance:
Your steadfast love, O LORD, extends to the heavens, your faithfulness to the clouds.
Psalm 36:5
It is because of His steadfast love and faithfulness that our iniquities are atoned for in Christ’s Cross. He calls us to be like Him, to do as He does:
Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins.
I Peter 4:8
