I discovered Joseph Prince in 2015 and listening to has really changed my perspective of Christianity. I wish our Preachers teach more like him, we'd have more independent, loving and peaceful Christians.
P.S: You can get his messages on YouTube or visit his website www.josephprince.com

Jiggaz, how do I let God love me? How do I simply rest and receive his love?

1 John 4:10
In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

“You have to love God more! You must have more passion for God!” You have probably heard this type of preaching and may have even tried your best to love God, only to fail miserably.

But what is the true definition of love? Let the Bible define it for us: “…this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us…” Yes, it is not about our love for Him, but His love for us!

“Pastor Prince, the Bible says that you must love God with all your heart, soul and strength!”

Yes, that is true according to the law (Deuteronomy 6:5), and even Jesus taught that as the great commandment when He walked on earth. (Matthew 22:37) But that was before He died on the cross. At the cross, He became the very fulfillment of this law for us when He loved us with all His heart, soul and strength, by laying down His body and life on the cross for us.

Today, we are no longer under the law but under grace. And grace tells us that God loves us, not that we love God. Yet, we will love Him when we see how much He loves us. The Bible says that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us! (Romans 5: That’s how much He loves us!

Beloved, God has seen you trying your best to love Him. And because He loves you, He wants you to sit down and be still, and let Him love you instead. He wants to love you with all that He is and all that He has. He loves you unconditionally regardless of who you are or what you have done because His love is not dependent on you but on Himself. He will never stop loving you.

So let God love you today. Don’t worry about loving Him. The more of His love you receive, the more you will fall in love with Him!

The good thing about Christianity is that you can always find a church that caters to you be you saint, prostitute, criminal

if you like strict dress code you head to deeper life. if you want to dress like you were a prostitute in church you head to Christ embassy. if you want somewhere in the middle I'm sure you'd find churches like that too

If you don't find a church that agrees with you fully you can go to the one that agrees with you the most OR create your own church

NevetsIbot:
i don't think this is a very good answer.

why would you classify other Churches like christ embassy with prostitutes or criminals? every shade of people attend every church.

Why some churches are more tolerant of types of people are that - you do not chase the people you are trying to save based on them still acting like unsaved people. For example, I'm trying to bring a prostitute to know christ,. I invite her to church... i should expect her to dress like a prostitute when coming... sure. should I see her coming through the gate and stop her and be like "Go away. you are not fit to enter with your dressing? "..... someone I'm trying to bring to know Christ?

No particular character of people is subject to certain churches

Don't take my words literally

To the deeper life members, Christ embassy are dressed as prostitutes or at least if you compare them. My point is that at Christ embassy almost any dressing goes while in deeper life they're stricter.

so anyone who is being chided for wearing some kind of clothes in a particular church can go find Christ embassy and become their member or search for any other one that agrees with his/her dressing
