Fw: Re: [TruthTalk] The Basis of Christian Fellowship

How is God expressing that LOVE to those

that are presently in HELL?

 

**Cute.  Those presently in Hell had plenty of time to get

their house in order.  Are you saying that God is unjust and/or

a respecter of persons?

 

Kevin: I once saw a tract that had a picture of Noah's Ark

on the cover. There were people scattered in and treading

water, all around the ark. On the side of the Ark, in BIG

letters was written,  SMILE, God Loves you!

 

**And what was that all about? you seem to be full of cliches

and what is going on in the religious world Kevin..

If the below be true, how can Jesus tell the vast majority

of those He loved,"I never knew you.  Depart from me".

** Jesus loved all of us enough to die for us which so far as I'm

concerned is genuine love.  He offers us eternal life on His terms not ours

and His terms are that we fulfill the law of Christ or 'royal law' which is "LOVE"

 

He says that if we love him we will do what He says (John 14:15,23)

He promises the crown of life to them that love him (James 1:12)

He promises the Kingdom to them that love Him (James 2:5)

Mark 12:30,31 says there is no commandment greater than LOVE

Luke 6:35,36 says that God is kind to the unthankful and to the evil.

Romans 13:10 says that love works no ill to anyone and love is the

fulfilling of God's Law

1 John 5:2,3 says - For this is the love of God that we keep

His commandments.

 

By the time Jesus tells these people who thought they were serving Him

'depart from me you who practice lawlessness' they will have had time to

get it together. It is our responsibility to search the scriptures and learn

what is expected of us.  No man got us into the Kingdom and no man can

kick us out.  But I don't believe many of us understand this kind of love

because it's spiritual and so we try to transpose what we have been used

to which is really no love at all, it is performance oriented acceptance.

 

Hope this makes what I'm trying to communicate a little clearer.

 

Grace and Peace,

Judy
