ITS NOT MAGIC; IF YOU WRONGED SOMEONE: AMENDS MUST BE MADE!




RECOGNIZING “REAL” LOVE THROUGH UNDESERVED AMENDMENTS
….God SHOWED HIS … [real] LOVE FOR US by sending Christ to die for us (make amends for us) while we were still sinners (while we were still  undeserving)…” (Romans 5:7-9 NLT).
*
When you RECOGNIZE “REAL” LOVE it means you KNOW what it is when you “SEE” it. It means you can READILY identify REAL LOVE. It means you approve and officially sanction REAL LOVE as a VALID reality. It means you can personally acknowledge that REAL LOVE truly exists. “…God is LOVE…” (1 John 4:4-8 KJV). “…God is [REAL]… LOVE…” (1 John 4:4-8 KJV). “… “I AM” WHO I AM” (Exodus 3:14-15 NASB).
To RECOGNIZE “REAL” love you must FIRST become AWARE that it ACTUALLY exists. To become AWARE that REAL LOVE actually exist it must be REVEALED to you. REAL LOVE is REVEALED to you through DEMONSTRATION. ….God SHOWED (demonstrated, revealed, etc.) HIS … [real] LOVE FOR US by sending Christ to die for us (to make amends for us) while we were still sinners (undeserving)…” (Romans 5:7-9 NLT).
REAL LOVE sent Jesus Christ to give his LIFE as a ransom for ALL mankind. “…The Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and TO GIVE his life as a ransom for many…" (Matthew 20:28 NIV).
Everybody born into the world is a sinner, but he or she can willfully CHOOSE to make amends with God. “Through one man SIN entered into the world, and DEATH THROUGH SIN, and so death passed to all men—“(Romans 5:12 KJV). Thus, “…All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God…” (Romans 3:23). “…The wages of sin is death…” (Romans 6:23).
In the Old Testament animal sacrifices provided a temporary amendment for sins. “…almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission” (Hebrews 9:22 KJV).
 The shedding of blood (a life for a life) is an atoning sacrifice that enables mankind to make amends with God for the forgiveness (eradication) of their sins.
The past atoning sacrifices, though temporary and limited, paid God for the penalty of sins (made amends) committed by his people.
The animal, representing the atoning sacrifice (payment) of the day, was only temporary. The animal’s shed blood (life), paid for the sins of the people and freed them from the consequences of their current sins.
This is not complicated and it is a very small synopsis of this vast topic. Animal sacrifices took place thousands of years ago and was simply a method God used as the atoning sacrifice (amendment) for the forgiveness (removal) of sin.
Animal sacrifices, of course, have LONG stopped. “For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement (amendment) for your souls: for it is the blood (life) that maketh an atonement (amendment) for the soul…” (Leviticus 17:11 KJV).
God GAVE them the lives that made the atonements for their SINS. “… I have given it to you ,,, to make an atonement (amendment) for your souls … it is the blood (life) that maketh an atonement (amendment)…” (Leviticus 17:11 KJV).
Thus, during ancient times certain animals, gave their lives, to serve as ransoms for the people’s sin.
They were temporary ransoms only and since they were temporary the animal sacrifices had to be repeated over and over every year.
The animal sacrifices, therefore, were a small tedious sample of the ultimate and permanent sacrifice predicted in Jesus Christ, who was to come!!!
For the Law, since it has only a shadow of the good things to come and not the very form of things, can never, by the same sacrifices which they offer continually year by year, make perfect those who draw near.  Otherwise, would they not have ceased to be offered, because the worshipers, having once been cleansed, would no longer have had consciousness of sins? But in those sacrifices there is a reminder of sins year by year. For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins…” (Hebrews 10:1-4 NASB).
Thus, the people continued to SIN and continued to NEED atonement. “The trouble is with me, for I am all too human, a slave to sin. I don’t really understand myself, for I want to do what is right (stop sinning), but I don’t do it. Instead, I do what I hate. So I am not the one doing wrong; it is sin living in me that does it.  And I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. I want to do what is right (stop sinning), but I can’t. I want to do what is good (stop sinning), but I don’t. …I [am] …a slave to the sin that is … within me. (Romans 7:14-25 NLT).
SIN separates people from (God) who is REAL LOVE. “[Their] … iniquities (sin)separated [them]… from … God …” (Isaiah 59:2 KJV).
Therefore, ….God SHOWED (demonstrated) HIS … [real] LOVE FOR US by sending Christ to die (make amends) for us while we were still sinners (undeserving)” (Romans 5:7-9 NLT).
Jesus Christ became the atoning sacrifice to bring people, once and for all, to God’s REAL LOVE. For Christ … died for sins ONCE for all, the just for the unjust, so that He might bring us to God (REAL LOVE)” (1 Peter 3:18 NASB). “…There is no greater LOVE than to lay down one’s life…” (John 15:13 NLT).
Herein is … [REAL] … LOVE, not that we loved God, but that HE LOVED US and sent His Son...” (1 John 4:10 KJV). “…Christ came at just the right time and died for us sinners (made amends for us sinners)God showed his great LOVE … by sending Christ to die (to made amends) … (Romans 5:6-8 NLT). “…There is no greater LOVE …” (John 15:13 NLT).
Jesus Christ was specially created to become the atoning sacrifice for mankind SINS. …God SO LOVED the world that he gave his only begotten (specially created) Son, that whosoever believeth in him, should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16 KJV).
 “…[YOU had]… sinned and fallen short of the glory of God…” (Romans 3:23). “…The wages …[for  your] … sin is death…” (Romans 6:23). However, REAL LOVE (God) sent “….the Son of Man TO GIVE his life as a ransom for …[YOU]…" (Matthew 20:28 NIV).
 Jesus Christ was specially created by REAL LOVE (God) to be the slain, Lamb of God, that would willingly DIE, in your place, and become, the once and for all, atoning sacrifice (amendment) for your sins. …Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world” (John 1:29 KJV). Christ … died for sins ONCE for all” (1 Peter 3:18 NASB).
 He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins” (1 John 2:2 NIV). Jesus Christ was specially created to make a permanent amendment for YOUR sins. “Christ also died for sins ONCE for all…” (1 Peter 3:18 NASB).
A barrier of SIN stood between REAL LOVE (God) and mankind. Once a year, the HIGH PRIEST could access the MOST HOLY place (where REAL LOVE exists) to make amends for the people’s sins. “… only the high priest ever entered the Most Holy Place, and only once a year. … he always offered blood (an animal life) for his own sins and for the sins the people had committed in ignorance…” (Hebrew 9:7 NLT).
The barrier of sin exists because HOLINESS can NOT and will NOT “EVER” MIX with SIN, so it SEPARATES; just like oil and water. “…Your INIQUITIES (sin) have separated between you and your God (holy) …” (Isaiah 59:2 KJV). “…It’s YOUR SINS that have cut you off (created a BARRIER) from God…” (Isaiah 59:2 NLT).
REAL LOVE (God) specially created Jesus to become like an EMULSIFIER which enables the mixture or emulsion of two unlikely substances. “…He that is joined (MIXED) unto the Lord (Jesus) is ONE Spirit… [or is miraculously united with the HOLY God]” (1 Corinthians 6:17 KJV).
When an emulsifier is added to the oil and water it will miraculously enable them to MIX together. “…He that is joined (MIXED together) unto the Lord (Jesus) is ONE Spirit… [or miraculously UNITED with God]” (1 Corinthians 6:17 KJV).“…. Old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new” (2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV).
Jesus miraculously enables the HOLY God and SINFUL mankind to MIX together; BONDED by REAL LOVE and CONNECTED through the HOLY SPIRIT forever. “…What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate…” (Mark 10:9 NASB). “…Love … is the perfect BOND of unity...” (Colossians 3:14 NASB). “…He that is JOINED unto the Lord is ONE Spirit” (1 Corinthians 6:17 KJV). “…Let no one split apart what God has joined together…” (Mark 10:9 NLT).  
God demonstrated REAL LOVE when he SENT his SON in order to reconcile with mankind by removing the BARRIER of SIN between them. “…There ... [is] … …one … who can reconcile God and humanity—the man Christ Jesus…” (1 Timothy 2:5 NLT).
The barrier of SIN is A REALITY. “… And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm (barrier) has been set in place, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us…” (Luke 16:22-25 NASB).
The BARRIER of SIN PREVENTS access to the FULL expression of REAL LOVE (God). However, God’s REAL LOVE is generally good to all. “…He maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust…” (Matthew 5:45 KJV).
Just because God is good to all of mankind doesn’t mean he is RECONCILED to all of them. ONLY “…onecan reconcile God and humanity (into a REAL LOVING covenant relationship)—the man Christ Jesus…” (1 Timothy 2:5 NLT). “….Apart from Me (Jesus), you can do nothing…” (John 15:5 NIV). “…Jesus saith unto him, I AM THE WAY … no man cometh unto the Father, but by me…” (John 14 6 KJV). “…There is SALVATION IN NO ONE ELSE” (Acts 4:12a NLT).
 Even with ALL the rituals and elaborate sacrifices performed in the Old Testament, mankind could NOT perpetually or permanently “MIX” with the “HOLY” God! “…For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins” (Hebrews 10:1-4 NASB).
SIN continued to create a BARRIER between God and mankind! “…YOUR SINS have hid his face from you … he will not hear… [you] …” (Isaiah 59:2 KJV). “…Because of YOUR SINS, he has turned away and will not listen anymore…” (Isaiah 59:2 NLT).
A BARRIER of SIN or WRONGS can come between you and another person you are in a relationship with. If someone, you love, WRONGS you, or BETRAYS you, or BREAKS your TRUST it creates a BARRIER. “[Your own] … iniquities (sin) …separated [YOU]… from God …” (Isaiah 59:2 KJV).
If that person doesn’t make amends the BARRIER may remain. Sometimes when a person DOES make amends the BARRIER may be so BIG it can’t be amended.
When a BARRIER of SIN or WRONGS exists between two people it BLOCKS or CUTS off the relationship. The barrier of sins or wrongs prevent them from connecting with each other. “…And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm (barrier) has been set in place…” (Luke 16:22-25 NASB).
When a BARRIER of SIN EXISTS between God and man it also blocks or cuts off the relationship. “…so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us…” (Luke 16:22-25 NASB).
When there is a BARRIER of SINS and WRONGS between you and another person, you may desire to LOVE them, but you KNOW amends must be made FIRST. “…EXCEPT YE REPENT, ye shall all likewise PERISH…” (Luke 13:3 KJV). “He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9 KJV).
God obviously DESIRED to demonstrate REAL LOVE to you, but he knows AMENDMENTS must be made first. “…Peter said to them, "REPENT (make amends), and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the FORGIVENESS of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit….” (Acts 2:38 NASB). “…Blessed is he WHOSE TRANSGRESSION IS FORGIVEN (is amended)…” (Psalm 32:12 KJV).
No matter how much you desire to be in a relationship with another person, the BARRIER of SINS or WRONGS become a BLOCKAGE for REAL LOVE to be fully expressed.  “…EXCEPT YE REPENT, ye shall all likewise PERISH…” (Luke 13:3 KJV).
No matter how much God desires to demonstrate his REAL LOVE to you, the BARRIER of SIN becomes a BLOCKAGE that prevents YOU from being yoked together with him. “…Be ye NOT unequally yoked together with unbelievers for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? Or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?” (2 Corinthians 6:14-15 KJV).
The biblical story of the poor man and the rich man is PROOF that the BARRIER exists? “…The poor man died and was carried away by the angels to Abraham’s bosom; and the rich man also died and was buried. In Hades he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and saw Abraham far away and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried out and said, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus so that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool off my tongue, for I am in agony in this flame.’ But Abraham said, ‘Child, remember that during your life you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus bad things; but now he is being comforted here, and you are in agony. And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm (barrier) has been set in place, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us…” (Luke 16:22-25 NASB).
Sometimes the BARRIER of SINS or WRONGS between two people is SO HUGE it is humanly impossible to amend. Some SINS or WRONGS are extremely HARD for people to forgive. “…The things which are impossible with men … [are] …POSSIBLE… [with God] …” (Luke 18:27 KJV).  
Nothing is TOO HARD for God. “…I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?” (Jeremiah 32:27 KJV). REAL LOVE is ready and willing to COVER over your BARRIER of SINS. “…[Real]…love covereth a multitude of sins…” (Proverbs 10:12, 1 Peter 4:8 ASV).he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness…” (1 John 1:9 KJV).
If you choose to make amends with God, he is willing to make amends with you that is why he SENT his Son, who IS the amendment. [Jesus]…the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world” (John 1:29 KJV). He is the atoning sacrifice (the amendment) for our sins” (1 John 2:2 NIV).  Therefore, “…I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more…" (Hebrews 8:12 NIV).
If you NEVER make amends in a relationship where you have created a BARRIER of SINS or WRONGS between you and another person it will FOREVER be broken. “…EXCEPT YE REPENT, ye shall all likewise PERISH…” (Luke 13:3 KJV). “…what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? …what communion hath light with darkness?” (2 Corinthians 6:14-15 KJV).
Without Jesus, there would ALWAYS and FOREVER remain an impenetrable BARRIER or CHASM between mankind and God. “…There is one God and one Mediator who can reconcile God and humanity—the man Christ Jesus…” (1 Timothy 2:5 NLT).
Jesus OPENS the way for mankind to make amends with God and MIX together, with him, into a REAL loving, covenant relationship!  “….By his death, Jesus opened a new and life-giving way …into the Most Holy Place (where REAL LOVE is experienced)…” (Hebrews 10:19-20 NLT).Jesus saith…I am the way, the truth, and the life…” (John 14:6 KJV).
Without Jesus, mankind could NEVER make amends or reconcile with God. “…[There is] … one … who can reconcile God and humanity—the man Christ Jesus…” (1 Timothy 2:5 NLT). “… Apart from Me, you can do nothing…” (John 15:5 NIV).… [You] … can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth … [you]…” (Philippians 4:13 KJV). “…It is God who works in [you]… to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose” (Philippians 2:13 NIV).
The precious atonement or amendment is a demonstration of REAL LOVE. “…God commendeth (demonstrated) his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ DIED FOR US…” (Romans 5:8 KJV).
Like parents who make provisions for a child while they are yet in the womb; so did God make provisions for you while you were yet sinners.
He made a provision to REMOVE the BARRIER of SIN between you and him. His Son, Jesus Christ is THAT provision. [Jesus]…the Lamb of God … taketh away the sin of the world” (John 1:29 KJV). He is the atoning sacrifice (the amendment) for our sins” (1 John 2:2 NIV).
God’s REAL LOVE is FULLY recognized in HIS GREAT act of GRACE. Your BARRIER of SIN was so HUGE that you could NEVER make amendments with God without JESUS CHRIST. That is why it is “…bY GRACE (God’s unmerited favor) have ye been saved THROUGH FAITH (depending upon what Jesus did upon the cross); and that NOT OF YOURSELVES, IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD; not of works, that no man should glory…” (Ephesians 2:8-9 ASV).  
.“…God so loved the world, that HE GAVE his only begotten (specially created) Son” (John 3:16 KJV). God SHOWED HIS GREAT LOVE FOR US by “SENDING” Christ to die for us WHILE we were still sinners” (Romans 5:7-9 NLT).the just for the unjust, that he might BRING US to God…” (1 Peter 3:18 KJV).  “…There is no GREATER LOVE than to lay down one’s life…” (John 15:13 NLT).  “…How great is [the HOLY God’s] … benevolent kindness…”  (Psalm 31:19-20 KJV).
FIRST, God demonstrates REAL LOVE by sending his SON so you could make amends with him. NEXT, God demonstrates REAL LOVE by empowering you to have a BONDED and CONNECTED relationship with HIM through his indwelling Holy Spirit. . …It is God who worketh in you, both to will and to do of His good pleasure” (Philippians 2:13 KJV). Jesus Christ is in you” (2 Corinthians 13:5 KJV). “…Christ in you, …” (Colossians 1:27 KJV). “…the Spirit of God dwell in you…” (Romans 8:9 KJV).  “…if Christ be in you…” (Romans 8:10 KJV). if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you” (Romans 8:11 KJV).  “Christ liveth in me” (Galatians 2:20 KJV). …until Christ be formed in you…” (Galatians 4:19 KJV). “…the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?” (1 Corinthians 3:16 KJV). “the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you” (1 Corinthians 6:19 KJV). “…God hath said, I will dwell in them” (2 Corinthians 6:16 KJV).
Thus, Jesus becomes the “guarantee” that the covenant with you and God is forever kept. “…Jesus has become the guarantor of a better covenant…” (Hebrews 7:22 NIV). “…I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me…” (Philippians 4:13 KJV).  
If you CHOOSE you can enjoy an uninterrupted “oneness” covenant relationship with God THROUGH Christ. Jesus said, "I and my Father are ONE." (John 10:30 KJV). The bible says, “…that they may ALL BE ONE; even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may BE IN US, so that the world may believe that You sent Me…” (John 17:21-23 NASB).
God’s REAL LOVE is demonstrated through Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ demonstrated the ACTIONS of REAL LOVE so you would recognize it when you see it.  …Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him. And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple robe. And said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they smote him with their hands….Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man! When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him. But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar. Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away…” (John 19:1-16 KJV),
“…And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha: Where they crucified him…” (John 19: 17-18 KJV).
“..After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst. Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a spunge with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to his mouth. When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost…” (John 19:28-30 KJV).
“…The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away. Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him. But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs: But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water. And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might believe. For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken. And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced…” (John 19:31-37 KJV).
“…And after this Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus. And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight. Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.  Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid. There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand…” (John 19:38-42 KJV).
 “…Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord. Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you…” (JOHN 20:19-21 KJV).
REAL LOVE motivated Jesus Christ to die on the cross for YOU? “…There is no greater LOVE than to lay down one’s life…” (John 15:13 NLT).Herein is LOVE, not that we loved God, but that HE LOVED US and sent His Son...” (1 John 4:10 KJV). “…Christ came at just the right time and died for us sinners. Now, most people would not be willing to die for an upright person, though someone might perhaps be willing to die for a person who is especially good. But God showed his great LOVE FOR US by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners (Romans 5:6-8 NLT).…God SO LOVED the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him, should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16 KJV).
Not only did Jesus Christ demonstrate REAL LOVE, but he was JOYFUL about it.  “…keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the JOY awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame…” (Hebrews 12:2 NLT).
The human experience of the cross was a shameful, but the JOY of bringing you to God’s REAL LOVE was worth it. “…Because of the JOY awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame…” (Hebrews 12:2 NLT).
Becoming the ransom that enabled you to make amends with God, held a greater weight for Jesus than the temporary shame of the cross. God knew “…when he (Jesus) sees all that is accomplished by his anguish, he will be satisfied. And because of his experience, my righteous servant (Jesus) will make it possible for many to be counted righteous, for he will bear all their sins…” (Isaiah 53:11 NLT).
God demonstrated his REAL LOVE by sending his Son. His SON enabled mankind to make amends with God and experienced the REAL LOVE he has for them.
REAL LOVE is recognized by the GREAT things JESUS did for you.
Jesus is the RANSOM for your multitude of SINS that creates a BARRIER that separates you from God. Jesus is the ATONING SACRIFICE that makes the amendment between you and God. Jesus is the guarantee that you will KEEP the COVENANT with God. Jesus is your GIFT of  SALVATION. Jesus is your ETERNAL LIFE. Jesus is the INDWELLING HOLY SPIRIT that works “IN” and “THROUGH” you.
Jesus is HOW you recognize REAL LOVE. “…This is REAL LOVE…” (1 John 4:10 NLT). “…This is REAL LOVENOT that we loved God…” (1 John 4:10 NLT). “…THIS IS LOVE: NOT that we loved God, but that he loved us …” (1 John 4:10 NIV). “…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 4:10 NIV).
 “…There is no greater LOVE than to lay down one’s life…” (John 15:13 NLT).
Christ died for [your] SINS according to the scriptures;  And …he was buried, and … rose again the third day according to the scriptures:” (1 Corinthians 15:3-4 KJV). “…SIN IS the transgression of the law….” (1 John 3:4 KJV). “…ALL HAVE SINNED …” (Romans 3:23). “…the wages of sin is death…” (Romans 6:23 KJV).  
Therefore, “… REPENT (make amends) and TURN TO God …” (Acts 26: 20 NASB).  “…God is LOVE…” (1 John 4:4-8 KJV). “…God is [REAL]… LOVE…” (1 John 4:4-8 KJV). “…God demonstrates his … [REAL] … love for us in this: While we were STILL sinners, Christ died for us…” (Romans 5:8 KJV).
“…This is REAL LOVE…” (1 John 4:10 NLT). DO YOU RECOGNIZE  IT YET?
Godspeed,
