    Contributed by Thomas Andrufski on Apr 1, 2021
     | 2,906 views

    It is because of the Love of the Heavenly Father that we receive love because of what Jesus did for us on the cross. The love of the Father for the Son is so strong and real. This love includes US! We receive the same relationship with God the father because of His love of the Son.

    Love of the Father for the Son for YOU John 3:35 (KJV) The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand. The gospel of John, in a special sense, emphasizes the love in the divine Trinity of the heavenly Father for the Son. The words “love” and “Father” and “Son” occur more ...read more
