No Greater Love!

John; 15:13
(Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends.)

When someone says that "God can't be a loving God" because He allows different tragedies to happen, then they must not know God as well as they think. When God saw how hopeless we were as sinners, He sent His only Son Jesus into the world to die for our sins. Now that sounds like a very loving God to me. God does allow things to happen that we just don't understand but that doesn't mean that He doesn't love us.

The Bible is very clear that God does love us and He has shown it all through the Bible. When Adam and Eve sinned in the garden, God could have just destroyed them and started all over with two new people. He didn't because He loved them. If He had destroyed them, then He would have had to destroy the next two because of sin and the next two would have sinned and He would have had to destroyed them, then the next two until there would have been no one to populate the earth. You might say that you would not have sinned but that isn't what the Bible says about man.
Romans; 3:23
(for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,)
That ends that argument before it even starts.

God loved us so much that He was willing to sacrifice his only Son on the cross. There had to be the shedding of blood for us to have forgiveness of sins. Jesus is the one who willingly went to the cross and shed His blood so that we could have forgiveness of our sins. I know that He loves me because He died in my place and took my sins upon Himself so I wouldn't have to die for them.
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.)

I have everlasting life, not because of anything that I have done, but because of what Jesus did for me. He suffered and died for my sins and He died for yours also. But you must come to Him and ask for forgiveness.
Acts; 4:12
(Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.)
1John; 4:10
(In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.)


God Bless You!
