I don't know but I know it is mentioned in one place and though I am not religious I think if this verse and this verse alone was all the bible was comprised of the world would be a much better place; "God IS Love"

If you count love, loved, loves then... 697 times in the NIV. 442 in the KJV. Each version is a little different in the wording.

I’m sure it depends on which translation you use—but a quick search of the King James Version revealed 205 Biblical scripture references for “love,” many of which use the word multiple times; and 19 Biblical scripture references for “charity,” which of course is God’s love and thus synonymous. http://tinyurl.com/bible-love http://tinyurl.com/bible-charity
