God’s love is not all sunshine and no rain…
God’s Love is not all sunshine and no rain. God’s love chastens, reproves, rebukes, has to allow one’s consequences of one’s choices, and not force what is good, truth, upright, holy, righteous. If God forced His love, He would be as Satan has accused him.
God’s love for us moved in Him and Christ that the Father gave His son, Christ; Christ chose to die the second death that we MIGHT (might because we have a choice to make) not have to. And so many want to justify disobedience so they can hold on to sin that Christ suffered, died that we might live! God’s love is not all sunshine and no rain.
God is love, all His love unto us is wrapped up in the gospel, the plan of salvation.
John 3:10-21 KJV
[10] Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things? [11] Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. [12] If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? [13] And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. [14] And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: [15] That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. [16] 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. [17] For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. [18] He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. [19] And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. [20] For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. [21] But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
1 John 4:9-10 KJV
[9] In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. [10] Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
