GOD's Kind of Love
VII. EXPLICATION:
Epistle to the Romans is the 6th book in the New Testament, written in Corinth at the house of Gaius on 55 A.D by Apostle Paul, Apostle of Grace.
Romans 16:23 Gaius, who is host to me and to the whole church here, greets you. So do Erastus, the city treasurer, and our brother Quartus.
VIII. MAIN BODY:
A. GOD shows His Love for us
1. Real love needs to be shown
John 3:16 For God so greatly loved {and} dearly prized the world that He [even] gave up His only begotten (unique) Son, so that whoever believes in (trusts in, clings to, relies on) Him shall not perish (come to destruction, be lost) but have eternal (everlasting) life.
B. GOD died for us
1. When you love someone, you give.
GOD gave His life for us. GOD could give an angel's life, but He needed human to die for another human, that's why GOD became man for us to die for our place.
Romans 8:32 He who did not withhold {or} spare [even] His own Son but gave Him up for us all, will He not also with Him freely {and} graciously give us all [other] things?
John 15:13 No one has greater love [no one has shown stronger affection] than to lay down (give up) his own life for his friends.
Romans 5:7 Mahirap mangyaring ialay ninuman ang kanyang buhay alang-alang sa isang taong matuwid—bagamat maaaring may mangahas na gumawa nito alang-alang sa isang mabuting tao.
Romans 5:8 Ngunit ipinadama ng Diyos ang kanyang pag-ibig sa atin nang mamatay si Cristo para sa atin noong tayo’y makasalanan pa.
IX. CONCLUSION:
GOD gave His Only Begotten Son of GOD for us, what can we give in exchange for it? It's a GIFT, it's FREE and Eternal, Accept the LORD JESUS CHRIST as LORD, and SAVIOR, give your life to JESUS.
