IT WAS FOR 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.” (1 John 4:9-11 NIV)

It was for love that God created the world. It was for love that God made human beings in His own image, thus making them partners in love, beings to whom He speaks, who He loves like a child, and who can answer Him and love Him like a father. And it was for love that God sent His Son to die so that we might live.
