Everlasting Love

"I have loved you with an everlasting love: therfore with lovingkindness have I drawn you." Jeremiah 31:3

Who can describe or measure the love of God? Our Bible is a revelation of the fact that God is love. When we preach His justice, it is justice tempered with love. When we preach His righteousness, it is righteousness founded on love. When we preach atonement for sin, it is atonement necessitated because of love, provided by love, finished by love.

When we preach the resurrection of Christ, we are preaching the miracle of love. When we preach the abiding presence of Christ, we are preaching the power of love. When we preach the return of Christ, we are preaching the fulfillment of love.

No matter what sin we have committed, no matter how black, dirty, shameful, or terrible it may be, God loves us with an everlasting love. The proof? Jesus Chrst, God's only Son, went to the cross for us. "For God so love the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16
