The love of God

There is no greater verse on the love of God than John 3:16: "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." His matchless love for His creation compelled Him to give His dear Son for our salvation (Romans 5:8-10). No one has ever experienced greater love than this (John 15:13).

Yet with this tremendous love, not everyone will be saved. The path is narrow, and only a few will find eternal life (Matthew 7:13-14). We love our children more than life itself, but we cannot make them decide to do right. God will not force us to obey, but has lovingly encouraged us to submit to His will and be eternally blessed.
