Behold What Manner of Love




1 John 3:1 (NKJV)

 

Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God!


 

2 Corinthians 5:17, 21 (AMPC)

 

17.  Therefore if any person is [ingrafted] in Christ (the Messiah) he is a new creation (a new creature altogether); the old [previous moral and spiritual condition] has passed away. Behold, the fresh and new has come!

 

21.  For our sake He made Christ [virtually] to be sin who knew no sin, so that in and through Him we might become [endued with, viewed as being in, and examples of] the righteousness of God [what we ought to be, approved and acceptable and in right relationship with Him, by His goodness].

 

 

Ephesians 1:3-8 (NLT)

 

3.  All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ.

 

4.  Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes. 

 

5.  God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.

 

6.  So we praise God for the glorious grace he has poured out on us who belong to his dear Son. He is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood of his Son and forgave our sins. He has showered his kindness on us, along with all wisdom and understanding.

 

 

John 8:36 (NKJV)

 

Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.
