God is Good
Today and next week are kind of a part 1 and part 2 of a single sermon.
I do thins because there is great danger of islolating the Love of God from an equally important doctrine about God, the Holiness of God.
God is both loving and Holy.
We cannot isolate God’s love or choose one over the other.
A holy God without love is a tyrant, and at the same time a loving God without holiness is a timid compromiser unworthy of the title of God.
God is Holy!
Anbd God is Love! and both are good, both are needed, both are required for God to be called Perfect.
So next week we will balance out this understanding with the holiness of God.
Today however lets us spend a few minutes just basking in His loving Kindness.
God is Love!
Love is not something that God has, it is what he is.
Love is not in God’s nature, it is God’s nature!
(BTW: Holiness is the same, God is Holy!
Because God is love and its not something he has, God’s love has all the characterises of God himself.
God’s love is eternal, all powerful, and unrestricted and unlimited.
But love that is not expressed is all talk, But God’s has poured out his love.
He has poured out his love on the whole world.
Now, very important.
God does indeed love everyone, but we are not saved bu God love, we are saved by grace.
God’s love which is towards everyone, made God’s grace avalible to the whosoever, but God’s grace, unlike God’s love, must be recieved by faith for it to be effectual.
and that is in fact the ultimate expression of God’s Love - That He sent his only Begotten Son to Die for us.
The Love of Jesus Christ
Amazing, isent it?
Pauls greatest prayer fro the church was that one day we will be able to comprehend just how much Jesus Loves us.
His love for us what the motivator that moved him out of the glory, wonder and splendor of heaven, to come and stay on this dusty, filthy sin riddle world called eartH.
His love for us was that which motivated his giving of His life on our behalf to make anotment for our sins.
Notice that word: Percieve.
It means “come to know” or ‘How we know”.
We dont know god’s love becsuse he healed you, or made life easy or solved your problems, or gave you a big hug.
He know he loves us because of the cross.
we do knot percieve his love based on an emotional move of the spiorit, but based on a step of faith in His Word.
Jesus has that great love and he has it for you.
Wwhen we speak about God love we speak of the greek word Agape - which means unmerrited or undeserved.
He loves us based on his will to love us, not based on our lovliness (which we have none of)
because of the Jesus Loves both the world and His church.
Both are summed up in Romans 5:8
So we can ask the question: God God love us more now that we are saved than when we were sinners?
No.
He loves us the same.
However now that we are saved we are privlidged to enjoy God;s love more and more each day through various graces or the fathger, son and holyb Spirit.
Love is a Doing Word
God the Father showed us His love by giving us His Son, God, the son showed us His love by dying on the cross.
and also by the sheer compassion he shows us every day of our lives.
Lets close by taking a few momnet to look at examples of Jesus Compassion on thos that need it.
1: He shows His compassion by supporting the weak.
let the weak say....
2: He shows His compassion by healing the sick.
3: He showed His compassion by comforting the hurting
4: He showed His compassion by feeding the hungry.
5: He showed His compassion by finding and forgiving sinners
6: He showed His compassion by giving rest to the weary.
