Everything in the life of believers is to love others as we are loved by God.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. 18 “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
Jesus is the light of the world many refuse to see His truth and prefer to live in darkness.
Our reputation is how we want people to see us. Our character reveals who we really are. Character matters. There is no one righteous. But we choose who we serve and through faith Holy Spirit manifest His fruits in our lives to use for our good and the good of those lives we touch.
Everything will be revealed in His light. Only in God’s mercy are we not destroyed and only in His grace do we have the chance to accept His righteousness. There is no person righteous, no, not one. The grace of God is unmerited and undeserved it is the gift of our loving God.
We choose who we will serve.
Every person has two sides…the fallen nature that entered in with the sin of Adam and Eve and the other that is created in God’s image. The spark of God is in every person born but we choose who we believe.
When Jesus returns those who choose Him by faith will live with Him eternally.
In heaven we will be fully known. There will be no pride nor shame. God sees us as we are and He loves us anyway. By the salvation of Jesus and our faith in Him we are able to stand before our holy God. His love covers a multitude of sins…mine and yours. Carla
