God's Great Love

1 John 4:21
"This is how God showed His love to us: He sent His one and Only Son into the world so that we could have life through Him. This is what real love is: It is not our love for God; it is God's love for us. He sent His Son to die in our place to take away our sins."

God loves us so much that He sent His Son to make the biggest sacrifice that was ever made in all eternity. He sent Jesus down to earth where He became flesh and blood so that He could experience life like the people of the world. Jesus, the immortal God and the Giver of Life, gave up His own life upon the cross in the greatest act of love the world has ever known! In doing so He took our sins away, effectively nailing them to the cross with Himself. 

If we have God's love then we need nothing else. To allow God's love to love you free - to heal you - you need to surrender all to God. All. 

God is:
The creator of all creators
The source of all sources
The source of all love
The father of all fathers
There is and always was but ONE God
and that one God is Love

A man once fell on his knees before Christ and begged, "If You are willing, You can make me clean." Christ, "filled with compassion" replied, "I am willing; be clean" (Mark 1:40-41). We too can fall on our knees and acknowledge God's only provision for our sins. We too can hear, "I am willing; be clean." Christ willingly took God's righteous indignation upon Himself so that you don't have to; whoever accepts His death upon the cross as payment for their sins will be reconciled to the God whom they've offended. 

Accept God's love and you will need nothing more. 


Peace.
