1 John 3:1
Every single one of us who name the name of Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour has a past do we not? A past that was stained deep by sin; we were on the highway to ruin!! Such were some you wrote Paul to the Corinthian Church. Fornicators, idolaters, adulterers, effeminate, abusers of themselves with mankind, thieves, covetous, drunkards, revilers, extortioners. How could it be that the Holy One who inhabits eternity should shed His beams of love around us? How can it be that we could be objects of His love and come into an inheritance as children of God? This is a wonder beyond words and the statement, “For God so loved the word”, an enigma that we’ll never fully come to the bottom of. Thank you, Jesus, for loving me!
