WONDERFUL LOVE

TEXT: JOHN 15:13

“Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. “

       

                GOD is love according to 1John 4:8. If GOD is love, then how can you measure how much HE loves us? You cannot measure the love that GOD has for human being; HE loves us so much that HE sent HIS only begotten SON to die for our own sins. HIS son had to die for our sins because only blood can cleanse us from sin; that is why during the Old Testament. HE made provisions for HIS people to offer animals as sacrifices to remit their sins, but this will only make people to have self-righteousness believing in their wealth whenever they have sinned because they could easily afford to provide animals for sacrifices for their sins, this certainly could not bring man to the purpose that GOD has for man (which is to fellowship with HIM) so GOD made a better provision by sending HIS only begotten SON JESUS CHRIST, to be the final sacrifice for our sins, even for generations to come (if JESUS tarries) HE came to die for you and me, so that we may have eternal life with HIM in heaven. HE said HE has gone to prepare a place for us so that where HE is we may be also in John 14:3. It is necessary for us to be cleansed from our sins because GOD wants to always have fellowship with us, but sinful people cannot go into HIS presence, Psalm 24:3-4 says “Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. “So only those that have clean hands and pure hearts can have true fellowship with GOD.

                We need to have fellowship with GOD always because the Bible said in Psalm16:11 that “ Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.” There is joy and pleasure in the presence of GOD. To stay in the presence of GOD just stay away from things that will make you to be sinful, stay away from all sins and GOD will stay with you.

If you know that you need the presence of GOD, but you have never given your life to CHRIST in order to accept HIM as the Lamb of GOD that has made Himself a sacrifice for all. Please do so now by clicking this link.
