God is love so immense, eternal, powerful, pure, holy, and infinite that we couldn’t take it in were it to be blasted upon us full strength. Jesus is God and is love filtered for our understanding. Jesus is every bit immense, eternal, powerful, pure, holy, and infinite as is God the Father, but His humanity […]
This year’s Lent Devotional Series “Seeing His Love with New Eyes” resumes tomorrow after today’s Sabbath rest to meditate and worship. Today, reflect on God’s infinite, inexhaustible, and impeccable love.
“Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and His love is made complete in us. This is how we know that we live in Him and He in us: He has given […]
Most of us are clueless about the death sentence we were facing as simple humans. We blissfully live our lives as though are our sins really aren’t that bad and certainly wouldn’t rise to the “death penalty level.” But Scripture says: Romans 5: 10 “Death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of […]
Scripture tells us about this kind of love that we need new eyes to see. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. … We love because he first loved us. (1 John. 4:10,19) God loved us first. Before […]

Our Eternal God IS Love and is therefore an infinite source out of Whom this love flows. This love is always new. He can do (and be!) no other than Love. It is His nature. Just as the water of a wild and flowing river is never a recycled repeat of the same water again […]
Being finite people with a limited lifespan, we have a maturation point before ultimate decline by aging. This is why it’s hard to wrap our minds around something that is infinite and always new. God is Love. He doesn’t have to feel love in order to know it. He doesn’t have to invent it or […]
This year’s Lent Devotional Series “Seeing His Love with New Eyes” resumes tomorrow after today’s Sabbath rest to meditate and worship. Today, reflect on confidence in the forgiveness, grace, and mercy of our God.
“Seeing His Love with New Eyes” requires seeing that, with God, it is possible that sin gets punished completely even while God remains pure and perfect love. God did this through Jesus Christ.
