UNDERSTANDING THE LOVE OF GOD

UNDERSTANDING THE LOVE OF GOD

Aeons of years have displayed the continuum of God’s Love, that is, from His Love to the world to His Love to His Children in serving Him.  God for ages understood that the world will never accept Him as God (Read the whole chapter of John 17).  Matter of fact, the world knows no God at all.  The world will always hate God.

Inversely, God also knows that His children who need to have His Spirit in them are the only ones who will hear His voice and follow Him.  Further, He also knew that they will be persecuted, mocked and sneered in this world even killed. 

Now, God created all thing in His holiness, hence, the whole creation is holy even as the lands are holy which is suppose to be inhabited by holy people.  Thus, a long history of peoples being spewed out of the land in the ancient times like being carried away captive into another land and replaced with another, howbeit, with purposes of either to provoke them to jealousy or to put them into exile, hence, their stories of return to the holy land.

God being holy and His creations holy, that is, these operate under the laws and graces of God alone having no choice but to obey only as the Spirit dwells in them: reveals to us that everyone, therefore, who exercises his own will and freewill are not of God but is of the world.  However, God in his love to create people in His image and to create New Heavens and New Earth which are holy will never show love and mercy the way as the world understand it.

The Love and Mercies of God are never unconditional.  The Love of God works in many ways, levels, purpose, will, intent, time, and counsel, hence, never as the way this world understood as unconditional love. 

What the world knew as unconditional love of God is actually the love of God for the world.  There is a love of God for the things he is actually creating and there is a love of God for those who are serving Him. The Love of God is a continuum.

In the world, He teaches and instructs his servants and children to love their enemies, love their neighbors, bless those who persecute them, and forgive those who sinned against them.

Now, because of this magnanimous character of God displayed unto the peoples in this world since the beginning of days sending his servants and messengers to them which is a world of occasions and opportunities and, worse, of iniquities the whole world took the magnanimity of God as a universal fact about God for not knowing the scriptures nor the power of God.

By and large, the Love and mercies of God are conditional in many ways, that is, when he is creating the people whom He chose to be in His likeness and image the love of God becomes a suffering and a travail to them that love him which is, to say, in well-doing and obedience. 

Creating a man to be holy and perfect is never possible in an unconditional system or environment, hence the words “He chasteneth whom He loveth” … “turn ye at my reproof and I will pour out my Spirit upon you.” Simply put, in creation, all things are conditional as a system.  The agape love people traditionally view and perceive as unconditional is never the whole and perfect love of God towards his children, so to speak.

ON LOVE OF GOD TO HIS SONS OR CHILDREN (THIS IS NOT UNCONDITIONAL)
·      Deuteronomy 8:5 Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so the LORD thy God chasteneth thee.
·      Proverbs 13:24 He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.
·      Hebrews 12:6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
·      Hebrews 12:7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?

IN CREATION - HIS WAY OF LOVE IS NOT UNCONDITIONAL
·      Proverbs 1:23 Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.

IN MERCY HIS WAY IS FAR FROM UNCONDITIONAL BECAUSE HE IS CREATING US TO BE HOLY AND PERFECT IN HIS IMAGE AND LIKENESS
·      Exodus 20:6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
·      Deuteronomy 5:10 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments.
·      Jonah 2:8 They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.

Where are the wise and the disputers of this world?  Did they ever learn to come to the knowledge of truth? The lines written above are the witnesses and testimonies of Moses, Paul, and Jonah, among others. 

Honestly, no one can ever tell that the love of God is realistically unconditional in this world because there is suffering and there is judgment that prevails among all men and in this world be it in the past, in the present and surely be it in the future, that is, if the world’s trend will not change.

Understanding the love and mercy of God should put everyone into the alignment of the Mind of Christ.  The Love of God in the World is unconditional but the love of God in the system of creation is conditional and filled with laws, hence, the sins we commit against him.  Additionally, the love of God in serving Him is an all-out-support love in that He fights for the battles that we will have along the way of service because the battle belongs to the Lord_ whenever someone is sent to serve having also the Spirit of God dwelling in him.

Therefore, be not deceive because the world can only view what it can observe and form it as the basis of their conclusion and adaption for living in this world but we have the Mind of Christ and know the Mind of the Spirit.

The Love and Mercies of God has its dividers by purpose, will, intent, time, judgment and counsel so seek to understand the Love of God.
