1 JOHN 4 v 7-21
SUCH LOVE
Wow , we live in a very different world of contrasting advice , difficult restrictions and differing interpretations.
How wondeful to be reminded again of the fundamentals of our Christian faith , a love that is real , unending and has conquered.
Our reading today was 1John 4 : 7-21.
'This is love : not that we loved God but that he loved us and sent His Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins' ( 1 John 4 : 10) .
We have been shown that wherever God is there is love and that He sent us His Son once and for all for us to be put right with Himself through faith and by Grace.
Sin and death are ended , we need not fear.
Some may want to sing :
' Such love , pure as the whitest snow,
Such love , weeps for the shame I know.
Such love , paying the debt I owe.
O Jesus , such love'.
