Love

 

There is a God who loves you very much

In Creation, God loved us

When God designed the world, He had loving you and blessing you on His mind. The world was created with such order and intricate detail that it shows us God’s existence. Consistently, season after season, all life on the earth reproduces after its kind, exactly as He said it would. In every system of nature God’s character is revealed. Yet, with just the slightest change in balance, everything on earth and above the earth will fall out of order. Still, He holds every atom and energy all consistently in place because He loves us.

"For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made…” – Romans 1:20

And He is before all things, and by Him all things consist.” – Colossians 1:17

In Our Failure, God loves us

God made all things to please Him. When we displease Him, He calls that sin. Sin destroys both mankind and the creation of God. It is a corruption which He will not allow in His presence in Heaven. Mankind is however, by nature, contrary to the ways of God. For this reason, our sin separates us from God. If not dealt with before we die, our sin permanently separates us from Him, sending our eternal souls to a place He calls Hell. Even though we come short of the glory of God, He loves us.

All have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” – Romans 3:23

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” – Romans 6:23

The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that nay should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” – 2Peter 3:9

When God Provided a Way, He Loved Us

From the time of the very first sin against God, He has always made a way for mankind to be with Him. When Jesus Christ, the Son of God came to be our salvation, it was so God would have a sinless man upon whom to lay the sins of the whole world. When Christ died on the cross and conquered death by rising from the grave, His sinless sacrifice of the very blood of God provided us a way. Now our sins can be forgiven. Christ, our Passover lamb from God, died to provide our way to be saved because God loves each of us.

Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto (God) the Father, but by me.” – John 14:6

There is Hope for Everyone in Christ, because God Loves Us

There is nothing you’ve done that God won’t forgive. Christ’s death on the cross was for you. To waste His salvation and God’s continual love for you would be a terrible tragedy. Believe the love that God has shown you by giving His Son’s life for you eternal life. Ask Jesus Christ for the gift that He died on the cross to provide. God will give you a home with Him in Heaven forever, where He can love you and bless you for all eternity.

For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved. He that believeth on Him is not condemned; but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”John 3:16-18

 

Trust Christ, and ask Him to forgive you and save you right now
