P; Scripture still says that God loved us first!
P; I cannot claime to know everything perfectly, I can only witness to His understanding given in Jesus Christ is Lord come in the flesh.
And this is that God Loved us first, while we were still sinners.
That all we are asked is not because we earn His love, but so we may know His love already given in Jesus Christ is Lord come in the flesh.
Just as a Father who loves His son will chastize him, so God chastizes us when we do wrong.
Im not trying to convince you of anything, for I am not the one who any should go to for the truth.
I simply witness to the truth, that is given in Jesus Christ is Lord come in the flesh.
Go to Jesus, ask Him to show you the truth.
My witness is simple, I spent much of my life thinking I had to earn God's love, simply because of the teaching of the religion I was raised in.
I spent so much time in despair, because I could not be good enough, could not do enough to earn His love, for conditional love has to be earned.
then I read scripture saying, I loved you first!
Then I saw the scriptures that said, I loved you before creation, I created you to be holy and perfect in my sight.
I called you with my love, I love you with my everlasting love.
For fear has no place in perfect love, for fear involves torment.
For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten son, while we were still sinners,so that who ever believeth on Him, shall have eternal life.
God already loves us, but we need to recieve Jesus to have eternal life.
Do not accept my words though, go before God in Jesus Christ is Lord come in the flesh, that His understanding , truth, would be revieled through the Holy Spirit.
And if you recieve that which I should need to hear, I will hear, then do the same in Jesus Christ is Lord come in the flesh.
For what matters here is not who is right, but the truth given in Jesus Christ is Lord come in the flesh.
Let me know what is shown to you.
God bless
