He Loved Me, Part VI - How Did He Love Us?
08.19.05 (1:46 pm) [edit]!st John 4:19 says, "We love Him, because He first loved us.
How did He love us? We find the answer in the third verse of the fifth chapter of 1st John; "For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. In Revelations 3:19, we are warned, "As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten; be zealous, therefore, and repent." And in Rev. 3:20, the Lord says, " Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him and him with me." And verse 21 says, "To him that overcomes, will I grant to sit with me in my throne."
The Almighty God loves you enough to seek you out and knock at your door and give you the choice of accepting His love or turning Him away as a stranger." He is an awesome God. A God you need to get to know for yourself. You need a personal relationship with Jesus. Ask Him to come into your heart right now. He will.
