Does God Really Love Me?
Does God really love me despite all the bad things I have done in life? The answer to that question is a resounding YES. Despite any sin you have done in the past, and if you are a Christian, despite the sins you may do after receiving Christ, God still loves you. The disciples asked Jesus how many times should they forgive their brother who sins against them, seven times they asked. Jesus replied seventy times seven. When you are born of God, your life is hid in Christ, when God looks upon you he sees the righteous of the Blood of the Lamb that covers you. That’s why both Paul and John say that Christians do not sin. While we may do things that are wrong, that sin will never affect our standing in regards to us being God’s sons and daughters.
Paul says in the book of Romans, Chapter 8:
35. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36. As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. 38. For I am persuaded , that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present , nor things to come, 39. Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord
Romans 8: 35-39 KJV
David, the King of Israel and a man after God’s own heart committed great sin. He lusted after his friend’s wife, placed the friend on the front lines in battle so that he would be killed and so that David could take his wife. God saw this sin of David’s and yet he was still blessed of God and had a son Solomon who rules Israel after David died. David says:
“Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.
Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin!”
John the Beloved talks about how God loved us before we ever loved Him. John’s writing in the book of 1 John describes our relation with God the Father and love we share for each other. In 1 John, Chapter 4, John writes:
8. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. 9. In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. 10. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
11. Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
15. Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.
16. And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. 17. Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world. 18. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
19. We love him, because he first loved us.
1 John 4: 8-11, 15-19 KJV
