THE LOVE OF GOD

 

THE LOVE OF GOD

Everybody uses the word "love." Everybody loves the word "love." But it is used in so many different ways and with so many different definitions. Love is often thought of as primarily a feeling or an attraction but the Bible gives us a much more profound understanding of what love really is. Dr. Sinclair Ferguson says:

God’s love is the most awesome thing about Him. It is not His justice, His majesty or even His blazing holiness but the fact that He has made and keeps a covenant of personal commitment and love to His people.

Want to read some amazing verses? Try I John 4:7-12 and John 17:20-26

God’s love is a TRINITARIAN LOVE. God the Father loves you. God the Son loves you. God the Holy Spirit loves you. Read John 3:34-35; 17:26

God's love is INFINITE. It knows no boundaries and has no limitations. He really loves you to the moon and back!

God’s love is SACRIFICIAL. It is a true love that gives and keeps on giving and loving. Seen most powerfully in the giving of His Son for our sins. The shepherd gave His life for His sheep. John 10:11

God’s love is VOLITIONAL. That is to say that it was a choice that God made freely and willingly. He didn't have to love you. He chose to love you. Why? No other reason than this: He simply wanted to love you. See Deuteronomy 7:7 and I John 4:19

God’s love is ETERNAL. There is no beginning and no end to His love for His people. Jeremiah 33:3; Ephesians 1:4-5

Revel in His Love today.
