HE LOVED
Joh 11:36 So the Jews were saying, "See how He loved him!"
Jesus wept not only for His dead friend Lazarus. He wept over the lost condition of the people. Lost, like sheep. Condemned to eternal death and suffering through the corrupt seed of Adam, and the falsehood of Satan.
2Co 5:15 and He died for all, so that they who live might no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf.
There is no love in the entire universe that can equal the depth of love that Jesus has for his own.
Joh 15:13 "Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends.
Our Savior willingly came down from on high, permitted Himself to become the created of the Creator, to live among us, blemish free, to show us the way, and be the light upon our path leading to salvation from the sentence of eternal death and suffering. This resulting from the fall of man through Adam. His willingness to suffer and to die in perfection and sinlessness, was His personal and loving gift to His Father, and to those of whom He has created.
Heb 7:25 Therefore He is able also to save forever those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.
We would do well to pray prayers of intercession for those we know and those we love, or could love. Jesus is the Great Intercessor!
Jesus holds out His hand to us. Be an overcomer of sin. Cancel your reservation in Hell. Take His hand and believe!
Joh 14:2-3 "In My Father's house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. (3) "If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also.
As Christ interceded for us physically, and brutally through His death on the cross, Jesus prayed to our Father, and His Father that we be given Him as a possession, that He might be the propitiation for our transgressions, Amen.
Joh 17:24 "Father, I desire that they also, whom You have given Me, be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.
Did you ever in your whole life love so deeply that it was physically painful? That your bones ached, your stomach wrenched? Jesus Christ loved and loves us with a deepness that our earthly minds simply cannot comprehend. So deep that He chose to die that we might live.
Joh 13:1 Now before the Feast of the Passover, Jesus knowing that His hour had come that He would depart out of this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.
1Jn 4:19 We love, because He first loved us.
2Co 5:14-15 For the love of Christ controls us, having concluded this, that one died for all, therefore all died; (15) and He died for all, so that they who live might no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf.
Love Him with all your mind, with all your soul, with all your heart, with all your might, and, Love your brothers and sisters as you love yourself. Believe on Him.
Joh 15:10 "If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love; just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love.
