My Favorite Topic

The Love of God. I the book of Epesians chapter 1 it says that before God laid the foundation of the world, He had us in mind, Us, as the focus of HIS love to be made whole and holy by His Love. Because of the great love God has for us, He cleansed us by the blood of Jesus, making us holy by His Grace. We CAN NOT earn His forgivess or become holy through our works. It is by grace through faith in Jesus that we are made righteous. However, God has created us to do good works, things He prepared us in advance for us to do. So what does this mean in practical terms? Well I think first we have to accept the fact that God Loved us so much that HE GAVE His only begotten/ conceived SON that those who believe that would not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 (Kathy's Paraphase) What I have learned in my walk with the Lord is that we must receive His Love, let it fill you to overflowing and then let it flow out to others, abundantly... to everyone, not just our friends or our family but to the unloveable, the poor, the weak, you get the idea. Remember, we come into this world with no material possesions and we leave this world with no material possesions BUT what we DO take with us is LOVE, It matters how we love each other. God Is love. Love covers a multitude of sin.
John 3:16, John 15:13, 1 Peter 3:18, 1 John 3:16
