Behold my servant, whom I uphold;(mine elect), in whom my soul delighteth;
I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.
I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.
For Jacob my servant's sake, and (Israel mine elect), I have even called thee by thy name:
I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me.
I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me.
And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved:
but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
God only has ONE son..lol.. so of course Jesus is his favorite. I think his favorite color would be blue, because it's a very calming and soothing color.

1Jn 3:1 Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
1Jn 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

It's an interesting question. God is not a respecter of persons, but does this speak more to equal justice, the true inner being and God looking to the things of the heart, as opposed to how man judges others on phony things, the likes of appearance, things of the flesh? It's inescapable our Lord Jesus had a special love of John. Does this not necessarily mean God may, in fact, love to a lesser degree the rebellious? If so, what is this saying to those who espouse easy believism or some universality to the love of God? If David was a man after God's own heart, doesn't this mean there are those less after His own heart? Is it wrong or error to love your own child, more than the neighbor's brat down the street? Not some doctrinal statement, just musing, okay?

I know God our Father loves celestial music.
Years back I was at an evening church service. I was praying in my mind and asking God to please restore my soul as I was in a difficult battle and weakening. The ceiling lifted off and I immediately heard a host of angels singing LOUDLY like instruments and voices the same \/ I could not see anything with my earthly eyes but in my mind I saw eternal expanse of space and stars and wispy clouds of blue smoke and I truly thought it was the Rapture!!! LOL!! I grabbed the man's arm next to me and squeaked out in excitement and fear, "Oooooh, the Rapture!!" He looked at me like I was nuts. And I realized it was a vision. The music/singing and the clouds & stars collapsed forward and the ceiling returned. I sat staring at the ceiling the rest of the service and was filled with new strength and great joy.
