God is Love


Jesus Christ died on the cross for all of our sins. He has that kind of love for his Father, and he had that kind of love for all of us to do so. If it wasn't for his strong will we would not be alive.


"Greater love has no one than this, that someone lays down his life for his friends." - John 15:13


Follow Jesus Christ, and do God's commandments. Jesus Christ has the love for all of us, for he was nailed to the cross and died for each one of our sins. He was resurrected from the dead and came back to life. He has eternal life, for believing in the Lord. Do any of us have that kind of love for our Lord and everyone? In the book of John it states the story of Jesus dying on the cross. If you'd like to look it up you may. (It is rather long to type, so I advise you to look it up if you want to know that story if you do not already know it)


"Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed." - John 20:29


I believe that not any of us have that kind of strength to do that, for we were all born sinners. We all sin. Read that again, we are all sinners. I do not like to hear anyone say "I'm a Christian, so I don't sin." You just lied if you said that. You sin when you don't even know it, and that's terrible. We are all that way, and we should all think about a lot of things before taking them into action. Believe in the Lord. Believe in his word. Do not be boastful and cocky in any sort of way. Do not think you are better than another person. We are all equal. We are all God's children.


"We love because he first loved us. If anyone says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen. And this commandment we have from him: whoever loves God must also love his brother." - 1 John 4:19-21


In order to love God, we must love all of our brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ. Yes, all of them.


God is love.


Jesus Christ loved us, and he died on the cross for all of our sins.


Do you have that kind of love?
I'm sure we all would love to.


Never forget who died for your sins.
Worship him and praise his name.


The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all.
Amen.
