Does God Love You... How Much?

Does GOD LOVE You... How MUCH?

John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

that's about as open ended as it gets...Gods inner circle

Has an open invitation to it..to everyone and anyone who will come

Gods Love knows no end...and there is enough Love there

to forgive every man, woman and child...for all time

And not only forgive...but to Bless beyond all human comprehension as well..

There is no bias on Gods part...he loves everyone

He is not racist to any...even the Isis rebels, He loves them...

Now I want you to know He does not condone their actions

But there is love and forgiveness for all who will believe on His

Sons name and ask for forgiveness...even the most vile

Gods Love, is the key to everything....without His love for us...

we would be finished..we would be nothing!

Everything He has ever promised us, done for us, or given us...

all hinges on and because of His immense Love that He has for us...

Not that we have for Him

Let me ask you this…How much of His love is real in your life??

What I'm getting at is this..you see a lot of people know about His love...

And they have even experienced Salvation...they consider

themselves a Christian...but they are still walking around

In the shadows of His love and all He truly wants to do for them!

1st John 4:17-19 MSG

17-18 God is love. When we take up permanent residence in a life of love, we live in God and God lives in us. This way, love has the run of the house, becomes at home and mature in us, so that we’re free of worry on Judgment Day—our standing in the world is identical with Christ’s. There is no room in love for fear. Well-formed love banishes fear. Since fear is crippling, a fearful life—fear of death, fear of judgment—is one not yet fully formed in love.

19 We, though, are going to love—love and be loved. First we were loved, now we love. He loved us first.

There are many today who talk about the love of God, who are total strangers to the God of love.

TBS When we take up permanent residence in a life of love, we live in God and God lives in us. This way, love has the run of the house, becomes at home and mature in us,

His love has the run of the house...that means His love is everywhere

in your home..there is no where His love is not a part of in your life..

TBS. Because of His immense love for us...our standing in the world

is identical with Christ’s..that means we have what He has..

1 John 4:17 NKJV

The Consummation of Love

17 Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world.

Now if your from the school of thought that doesn't think we do....

What exactly do you think we have??

The word clearly states we have what JESUS has available to Him.

What I have just shared with you..the whole world needs to know

and understand...that's how much Love God has for His Children

And that's why satan fights so hard against Gods love...

Because he loses when Gods love is prevalent anywhere

And anytime it is..

Until a person can sing Jesus Loves me...and grasp how much His Grace can truly mean personally....how can you portray it to your fellow man?

Is the way your fellow man sees you and your life...

portraying the love of God and the love He has for them?

It should..if it doesn't why would they want what you have?

illus. if you had a bottle of honey..and you were trying to tell everyone

About it..and how good it was, how sweet it was,

About all the amazing health benefits You could receive from it,

by trying it and using it In your daily diet...and you had never tried it, or realized

those benefits for yourself...

Don't you think it would be kind of hard to accurately describe

what it could actually accomplish for them in their life?

It would almost impossible...

But yet it happens and we try to portray it...without completely

Experiencing the benefits were telling others about that we think are so great

That's why we need to completely open ourselves up

to the love of God...and let it have complete run of the house

just as the word said earlier that we read

illus. Years ago, a large Atlanta church was televising the service where they had asked a retired 92 year minister preach from its pulpit.
