Love Perfected

When we trust in Jesus Christ and are saved, God will work in us to perfect our love. When love has been perfected within us, we may have boldness in the day of judgment. When we are saved, we no longer need to fear the day of judgment.

 

How do you share God’s love with a lost world? First, remember that salvation is not just a decision; it is a product of God’s intended work in our lives.
God will funnel into you the stalwart full-throated-grand eternal love of God; you get to funnel that out into the lost of the world.

 

God’s love is not the touch-feely emotion of Hollywood and pulp fiction novels. The Bible says that God is love, but it also says that He is light and a consuming fire. In this lesson, Pastor Crookshank challenges us to learn the true nature of God’s love and start loving others in the same way.

 

Am I Saved?

You can not know for sure if someone else is a born-again Christian. Sometimes you are not even sure about yourself. But John tells us where to find evidence that we are authentic Christians.

 

In salvation, God moves us from the sphere of death to the sphere of life. When we are given that eternal life, we experience God’s love and begin to love others in that same unconditional way. The truth, or reality, of salvation is that it changes us and that change is evident in our everyday lives.

 

Can you ever have true love? Yes. God loves His children with true love. This devotional explains different kinds of love and shows that God’s love is perfect and unconditional. If you accept Jesus as your Savior, you can receive and learn to give that same kind of love.
