GOD SO LOVES YOU
Let me share with you the story of a married couple who loved each other so much that they gave each other daily assurance that nothing could tamper with the love they had for each other. Something happened one particular night. Armed robbers burgled into their house and told both of them to lie flat on the ground, which they, with grasping fear, did. One of the armed robbers pointed a gun swiftly towards the both of them and said, “I’ll leave this place if only one of you can take a bullet for the other.” The couples looked each other in the eyes for over 10 minutes without breaking a silence, but the pressure became too much from the armed robber, who threatened to shoot both of them if they insisted on not talking. Long story short, it was such a pity that both of them simultaneously pointed fingers at each other, claiming they couldn’t die for each other. The armed robber, in great disgust, shook his head and left.
No man on earth is ready to die for anyone. Even if any of your friends or family want to die for you, they can still manage to take a few bullets and die a peaceful death. But they run away if they get an actual overview of the kind of death process Jesus Christ passed through. It was really a slow, painful, and terrifying death.
There is no greater love than this: that a man lay down his life for his friend. (John 15:13)
Jesus Christ was sent to suffer and bleed in order to die for our sins. He was born to die so that we could live. He was also sent to love sinners. He actually came because of them, be they blind sinners, poor sinners, diseased sinners, possessed sinners, or white or black sinners. He came for all sinners.
Originally speaking, every sinner has been programmed on Satan’s system to be condemned to ETERNAL CONDEMNATION, but the good news here is that Christ came to give sinners ETERNAL COMMENDATION, which is the same thing as Eternal Life. All this sweet and graceful privilege would never have come into existence if God’s love had not been born. (John 3:16)
HOW DO I KNOW GOD LOVES YOU?
About 2,000 years ago, Jesus Christ died for your sins, and it wouldn’t be fair enough if his death was a waste of your life. The breath entering your nostrils as you’re reading this write-up right now is the biggest sign and evidence that God loves you and is still very much interested in you. There’s no room for repentance in the grave or in hell. So, my dear friend, the best time to repent is not next week; in fact, tomorrow is too late. But the right time is NOW!
(Hebrews 9:27)
HOW CAN ONE RECEIVE ETERNAL LIFE?
A child can’t enjoy and have access to his parents inheritance if he doesn’t believe in or have trust in them. In order to delete your file from Satan’s system and have it on God’s system. You must do the ABC.
A = ACCEPTING JESUS AS YOUR PERSONAL LORD AND SAVIOUR.
B = BELIEVING IN YOUR HEART THAT JESUS DIED FOR YOUR SINS AND AROSE THE 3RD DAY
C = CONFESSING A & B ABOVE AND REPENTING OF YOUR SINS
WHY DOES GOD LOVES YOU?
Since the disappointing downfall of Adam and Eve. A death certificate had already been issued to them. But the merciful eyes of the Almighty God couldn’t withstand seeing His image and own likeness perish in hell. That’s how His infinite LOVE for you came to tear that Death Certificate into pieces on the day of crucifixion so that you could experience ETERNAL HOPE AND LIFE.
Remember, God still loves you.
