Our God Is Love. Not A Slave Driver. by kay1one2(m): 6:13am On Jul 24, 2015
1 John 4.8-11 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.


1 John 3.16-18 This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be that person? Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.

The first way God revealed himself to mankind was through His creation. Earth is known as a habitable planet because it has all the necessary conditions that make it possible for mankind, and all the lifeforms that make life easy for him here, present in appopraite levels.
It then becomes obvious that the Creator is one who has us in mind and a loving being who revels in our bliss.
Although human nature has become decadent due to the fall of the first man Adam, God in His loving kindness has provided a way of redemption for us in His Only Begotten Son JESUS.
Jesus Christ and the Cross are the biggest evidence we have that we not only serve the Creator of this awesome universe but that he hasn't given up on us just and that He is truly love.
Our God and the God of this universe is love, not a slave driver who revels in people killing each other in the name of some delusional "holy" war that stems from inherent weakness over life's affairs and yields nothing but wanton destruction seen only with the devil.
Accept Jesus today.

If you can question God's existence, why not question yours as well!

Isn't god a title? Anyone can call himself god or herself a goddess. That is why I said you make no sense.

Why should I question my existence. I would rather question the man you claim is hiding in the closet.
