And The Word Became Flesh,
The word is God so God sent Himself into the
world in His Son. Scripture says that Jesus
did not come to condemn the world, rather He
came to save the world. God is love and he
who believes in love lives in God and God lives
in him (1John 3:16). We are saved by the love
of God so that we may become one in Him and
bring His love into the world just as Jesus did.
If we have love, we just don't need anything else.
If we don't have love then nothing else matters.
God's message is very simple yet somehow it
becomes entangled in legalism which ends up
taking His message of love away and lends
itself to becoming intellectualism rather than
penetrating the soul with His eternal love. I do
not believe that is why God sent His Son into
this world. Jesus fulfilled the old law; so what
would be the point of replacing it with another
set of laws. Scripture says "Love fulfils all the
law" so that all we really need is love of Him and
love of humanity.
