For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. (John 3:16-17).
Who would leave a place where here is total and complete Love, Joy, Peace, and where the streets are so beautiful they are as transparent gold? CHRIST WOULD!
Who would leave a place where the foundations and walls are of various precious stones which glisten, and truth is the only language spoken there? CHRIST WOULD!
Who would know ahead of time that wickedness and evil covered a land, yet would still go there in hopes of saving some? CHRIST WOULD!
Jesus said that he and his Father are one and the same, and there is nothing that can separate anyone of us from the love which we have found in Christ our Lord. “As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord”.(Romans 9:36-39).
The whole message of Christ’s teaching is of a love given to us by a Spirit of no fear, but of a power o love which moves mountains. (2 Timothy 1:6-9).

Ian………………….I hear you brother loud and clear how the beautiful message we are entrusted to give is miconstrued…….As you say half is taught and another one is MATTHEW 7:1,and verse two is never applied for we are to judge with righteous judgment or without this wickedness would prevail every time! “Judge not, that ye be not judged. FOR WITH WHAT JUDGMENT YE JUDGE, YE SHALL BE JUDGED: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again”.(Matthew 7:2). God Bless You.

P.S. I thought of you the other day Ian as I was totally out of gas for my lawn mower and really wanted to mow…..when I went out and checked it was on full!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hurried and asked my husband if he went and got some, but he said no and showed me the empty can. GOD IS SO GOOD, I knew you would believe……..
Our Father is so funny at times and so amazing. Its the little things like this that fill us with so much joy for him and his provision for us.
AmNotAshamed…………….AMEN and Amen, may we always through the Holy Spirit be kept in constant remembrance of the gift our Saviour died to give us. God Bless You.

This part of the verses is the most forgotten: “For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.”
I hear many speak, preach and teach the first part of the verse but never the second part when it is vital for people to understand “why” the Father sent Jesus to earth as a demonstration of his love for his creation – man and the earth and all that is contained in it for mans benefit.
People seem to focus on the remission of sins alone and not giving those the bigger picture who are seeking the truth.
Same thing has happened with the salvation message – that is all they preach. Jesus preached and taught all about the kingdom of God and why he was sent. Yes he focused it saying he was the bread of life and anyone that followed him would have eternal life but his message was tow fold never singular.
Our Father’s love for us is beyond measure and by giving the full picture it helps people understand the Fathers intentions.
Father help us to remember that we are the light of the world, and help our lights to shine bright and guide those lost and seeking life and shelter from the storm. In Jesus name, Amen.
