Accepting God S Love

A Gentle Invitation into the Challenging Topic of Privilege The notion that some might have it better than others, for no good reason, offends our sensibilities. Yet, until we talk about privilege, we’ll never fully understand it or find our way forward. Amy Julia Becker welcomes us into her life, from the charm of her privileged southern childhood to her adult experience in the northeast, and the denials she has faced as the mother of a child with special needs. She shows how a life behind a white picket fence can restrict even as it protects, and how it can prevent us from loving our neighbors well. White Picket Fences invites us to respond to privilege with generosity, humility, and hope. It opens us to questions we are afraid to ask, so that we can walk further from fear and closer to love, in all its fragile and mysterious possibilities.

Our choice to accept God can be the turning point in our lives. This choice can allow God to express the best that is within us. God is the ultimate answer to everything that we may need in life. Along with his love, he lives in every human heart, regardless of ethnicity, age, life situation, or marital status. He patiently awaits us to receive him throughout any and every point in our lives. He is immeasurable. He is infinite. He is wisdom. He is the peace that we find, and he is also the good potential that we all possess. He existed before all else and holds all creation together with his love, from which we can never be separated. He is who we should all accept to be spiritually healthy. He is the light that makes all things visible, and only by His Presence are we capable of expressing true love. God is truly the one and only spirit that we all need to breathe, and he is real whether or not we believe and accept him!

Christians know that God loves them, but can easily feel that he is perpetually disappointed and frustrated, maybe even close to giving up on them. As a result, they focus a lot—and rightly so—on what Jesus has done to appease God’s wrath for sin. But how does Jesus Christ actually feel about his people amid all their sins and failures? This book draws us to Matthew 11, where Jesus describes himself as “gentle and lowly in heart,” longing for his people to find rest in him. The gospel flows from God’s deepest heart for his people, a heart of tender love for the sinful and suffering. These chapters take readers into the depths of Christ’s very heart for sinners, diving deep into Bible passages that speak of who Christ is and encouraging readers with the affections of Christ for his people. His longing heart for sinners comforts and sustains readers in their up-and-down lives.

This highly interactive and motivational book offers clear insight for making Matthew 22:3739 into a lifes path. Dr. Wayne Scott presents the content through an innovative method of learning called biblical journaling. This helps you to interact with Gods Word. Included are seven chapters on Gods love that have been rewritten into a more contemporary style from Orison Swett Mardens book Loves Way (1891). Marden was the most widely read author of self-development books in the nineteenth century. A comprehensive supplement (presenting 103 journaling questions) is included for the purpose of bringing you to a full understanding of Gods plan for salvation. The supplement starts with the question, If you were to die today, would you go to Heaven? If you cannot give an affirmative yes, then hopefully after working through the supplement you will be able to answer Yes, I know I am going to heaven.

An in-depth look at a God who not only loves, but is love. Love has come to mean many things. It’s used to describe emotions. It’s the glue for relationships. It frames countless stories. And the greatest of these stories opens before time began and echoes throughout eternity. It’s the story of God’s unrelenting, overwhelming love for His people. Yet the truth of love is even more majestic, more staggering, and more extraordinary than we can understand: God doesn’t just love us. He is love. Renowned theologian and teacher Dr. R.C. Sproul takes a remarkable look at this most profound truth. God’s Love delves deep into Scripture to explore this dynamic attribute of God, which finds its ultimate expression in His Son. Dr. Sproul also examines seeming paradoxes of God, such as a loving God and divine hate, and how love coexists with His sovereignty. Practical, insightful, and revolutionary, God’s Love compels and calls us to reflect His nature of unconditional love.

"God's unconditional love." Sounds nice, but is it enough? Is there more to God's love? Describing unconditional love as detached "blanket acceptance" and "benign affirmation," David Powlison challenges our common assumption about the nature of God's love. Although wonderfully accepting, divine love is also intrusive, intimate, personal, and active. Instead of simply loving us as we are, God loves us enough to change us. Powlison acknowledges four underlying truths of unconditional love, offers biblical improvements on the idea, and urges us to see God's love for what it really is--better than unconditional.
