“The Greatest Love”

The biggest lie ever told to humanity is that God doesn’t care about you or your problems. That is a lie from Satan himself that he has spread for generations. (Genesis 3:4,5) The topic of God’s love is truly an overwhelming subject to try and tackle in only one message. There is so much that the Bible has to say about the love of God that no one has ever come close to fully comprehending it. From this one verse we find several truths about the love of God.  THE LOVE OF GOD IS UNCONDITIONAL. For God so loved the world, isn’t based on our behavior or our attitude toward him. Rather we see here that God’s love for mankind is unconditional. THE LOVE OF GOD IS SACRIFICIAL; God shows us that true love has nothing to do with what you can do for God, but everything to do with what God can do for you. THE LOVE OF GOD IS VALUABLE. He loved us so much that he was willing to give us Jesus. GOD’S LOVE IS PERSONAL. God’s love is personal, because it was made manifest through a person – Jesus Christ – but also because it is bestowed on a person – you. The love of God to mankind demonstrated through the person of Jesus Christ is the greatest love ever demonstrated. God gave His only begotten son, and Jesus laid down His life for our sins. No love could be greater.
