Resurrection day, Resurrected spirit

Today, my pastor preached about the reason for today. God loves us so much that he cannot hate us, because he is in us. He sent Jesus because Adam loved Eve so much that he sacrificed his life for her. We are saved because of agape love: Adam loved Eve without conditions and God loves us the very same way. God loves us so much that he can't hate us! That is a powerful love!

Furthermore, love covers a multitude of sin. Mothers think about how much you love your children. That is almost exactly how much God loves us.

Agape love. How many of can love unconditionally? None. We as a society date WITH conditions. Furthermore, if those conditions aren't continuously satisfied after they've been met, we leave/divorce people. Agape love? We don't know what love is.

Pastor also spoke about the power we have in that Agape love. God sent his only begotten son to save us. Can you imagine creating human life, knowing that that creation will hurt you? Would you still create it? You wouldn't. The power in the love God has for us enables us to have power. You aren't merely human, you are a child of God! He gave us his power! And when Adam gave that power away Jesus had to go and take that power back from the depths of hell! And he had to be human to go to hell! He had to give his life so that he could save us. He had to inherit ALL sin while on the cross, nailed at the hands and feet, suffocating to death. Furthermore, death couldn't just take him because he created it--which means that he had to submit to his own creation in order to give us the chance to be saved!


Imagine that kind of love. And yet he still gave us the ability to CHOOSE to worship him.

We were created to serve God and to magnify him, and to partake in agape love with him.

That's powerful.

I have a renewed spirit--never before had I thought about Jesus' love that way. Everyone is capable of that kind of love. But will you?
