Love As Christ Loves

Love As Christ Loves

 

No one on this earth will ever be able to comprehend the hurt, pain, sorrow, and rejection that took place between the Father God and the Son Jesus Christ. When we read John 3:16 we see something beautiful and amazing for us, but let's not forget why we can enjoy the benefits of salvation, being saved from an eternity of hell fire. It is because God saw that our sins had separated us from a relationship with Him, the very reason He created children. It was love for us that sent Jesus to the earth, it was love that held Jesus to the cross, it was love that raised Him from the grave and it was love that sent the Holy Spirit to come and live within our hearts! the same love that caused all these things to happen should cause us to love others as Christ loves them. Love is always action, you can do works without love but you cannot have love without works. Love involves self sacrifice and obedience to God's Word.
