LOVE "ALWAYS" PROTECTS, TRUST, HOPES, AND PERSEVERES. LOVE FROM "HIS" PERSPECTIVE!




HOLY LOVE ALWAYS PROTECTS, TRUSTS, HOPES, AND PERSERVES

“…Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, It is not easily angered, It keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres, Love never fails…” (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).

 “…God is LOVE…” (1 John 4:4-8 KJV). “…God is [HOLY]… LOVE…” (1 John 4:4-8 KJV). “…[HOLY]…LOVE … “ALWAYS” PROTECTS… TRUSTS… HOPES… [AND]… PERSERVERES…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).
HOLY LOVE continuously, permanently, constantly, at “ALL” times, unfailingly protects, trusts, hopes, and perseveres on your behalf.
The word “ALWAYS” reveals the HIGH standard of commitment HOLY LOVE has for his LOVED ONES. God is saying that ALL THE DAYS of your life, he will perpetually protect, trust, hope, and persevere on your behalf. “…I am with you always, to the very end…"(Matthew 28:20 NIV). “…[God will]…Never leave nor forsake you…” (Hebrews 13:5 KJV).  “…Behold, I am with … [you] and will keep … [you] whithersoever [you]… goest…I will not leave [you] ..." (Genesis 28:15 ASV).
He says, “…I will not forsake [you]” (Isaiah 42:16 NIV). “…I am with you always, to the very end…"(Matthew 28:20 NIV). “…LOVE … “ALWAYS” PROTECTS… TRUSTS… HOPES… [AND]… PERSERVERES…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).
“…God is able to make all GRACE abound toward [“HIS loved ONES]; that [they will]… always hav[E]… all sufficiency in all things” (2 Corinthians 8:9 KJV). “…I am with you always, to the very end of the age…"(Matthew 28:20 NIV).
“…God will generously PROVIDE all [his loved one’s]… need…. Then [they]... will always have everything [they needs]…” (2 Corinthians 9:8 NLT).
“…Behold, I AM WITH… [YOU] and  I WILL NOT LEAVE [YOU]." (Genesis 28:15 ASV).  “…I am the Lord, I change NOT…” (Malachi 3:6 KJV).  Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever” (Hebrews 13 8 NIV).
“… [I WILL]…never leave nor forsake you” (Hebrews 13:5 KJV). He has “….loved [you]...with an everlasting love...” (Jeremiah 31:3 KJV). “…LOVE … “ALWAYS” PROTECTS… TRUSTS… HOPES… [AND]… PERSERVERES…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).
HOLY LOVE is “ALL” in and totally committed to his loved ones. “…Who will separate us from the love of [Christ? “[Nothing] … will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 8:31-39 NASB).
“….neither death, nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate [YOU]… from the love of God which is “in” Christ Jesus our Lord…” (Romans 8:38-39 KJV). “…There is no greater love …” (John 15:13 NLT).
HOLY LOVE commits to PROTECT his loved ones, or to bear all things. He has his loved ones “COVERED.” Love covers over a multitude of sin.” OR “…Love covereth a multitude of sins…” (Proverbs 10:12, 1 Peter 4:8 ASV).
HOLY LOVE perpetually seeks to protect his loved ones. However, God is HOLY and will not overlook, wink at, or cover-up sin, nor will he interfere with the consequences of sinful choices. “…LOVE … “ALWAYS” PROTECTS…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).
HOLY LOVE protects by empowering his loved ones weaknesses, guarding their vulnerabilities, forgiving their many provocations against him, and readily cleansing them from all unrighteousness. “…LOVE … “ALWAYS” PROTECTS…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).
HOLY LOVE is utterly compassionate and understanding with the shortcomings, and faults of his loved ones and thus will focus on what he needs to do to protect them; not himself. “…LOVE … “ALWAYS” PROTECTS…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).
HOLY LOVE sent JESUS to PROTECT you from sin and its consequences. “…God so loved the world, that HE GAVE his only begotten Son (Jesus Christ)” (John 3:16 KJV). “… Jesus... [said], Father, forgive them…” (Luke 23:34 KJV).  “… REPENT and TURN TO God …” (Acts 26: 20 NASB).  “…REPENT ye therefore, and BE CONVERTED, that your sins may be blotted out…” (Acts 3:19 KJV). “…Whosoever believeth in him SHOULD NOT PERISH, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16).  
Jesus ERADICATED your sins, and offenses against God. …Behold the Lamb of God (Jesus Christ), which taketh away the sin of the world” (John 1:29 KJV).
 HOLY LOVE’S forgiveness is a PROTECTION. “..Love covers over  (protects you from the consequences of) a multitude of sin…(Proverbs 10:12).  “…I will forgive …[your] wickedness (sin) and will remember ..[your] sins no more…" (Hebrews 8:12 NIV). “…[HOLY] …love covereth (protects you from the consequences of) a multitude of sins…” (1 Peter 4:8 ASV). “…The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy…” (Psalms 103:8 KJV).
HOLY LOVE focuses on PROTECTING his loved ones and will NOT focus on their offenses, weaknesses, or faults. “…HE DELIGHTETH IN MERCY…” (Micah 7:18 KJV). “…Mercy triumphs over judgement.” (James 2:13 NASB). HE is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness…” (1 John 1:9 KJV). “…he remains faithful…” (2 Timothy 2:13 NLT).“…I am the Lord, I change NOT…” (Malachi 3:6 KJV).  Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever…” (Hebrews 13:8 NIV).
HOLY LOVE seeks to PROTECT his loved ones through forgiveness, grace, and mercy. “…Blessed (protected) is he WHOSE TRANSGRESSION IS FORGIVEN, WHOSE SIN IS COVERED. …” (Psalm 32:12 KJV). “…Blessed (protected) is the man unto whom the Lord IMPUTETH NOT INIQUITY, and in whose spirit there is no guile…” (Psalm 32:12 KJV). “…I am he that BLOTTETH OUT (protects you from the consequences of) THY TRANSGRESSION ….” (Isaiah 42:35 KJV).   “…I am he that WILL NOT REMEMBER THY SINS….” (Isaiah 42:35 KJV).    “…As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he REMOVED OUR TRANSGRESSIONS FROM US…” (Psalm 104:12 KJV). “…I WILL heal their apostasy.…” (Hosea 14:4 KJV). “…I will forgive (protect you from) …and will remember ... [your] sins no more…" (Hebrews 8:12 NIV). “…EXCEPT YE REPENT, ye shall all likewise PERISH…” (Luke 13:3 KJV). God “….is… NOT WILLING that any should perish, …” (2 Peter 3:9 KJV).“…BE CONVERTED (protected), that your sins may be blotted out…” (Acts 3:19 KJV). “…Whosoever believeth in him (depends upon his protection) SHOULD NOT PERISH (be protected from the consequences of sin and)… have everlasting life” (John 3:16).  
“… [HOLY]love covereth (protects you from the consequences of) a multitude of sins…” (Proverbs 10:12, 1 Peter 4:8 ASV). “…LOVE … “ALWAYS” PROTECTS… TRUSTS… HOPES… [AND]… PERSERVERES…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).
HOLY LOVE commits to TRUST his loved ones, or to believe all things. He “BELIEVES” in his loved ones. “…LOVE … “ALWAYS” … TRUSTS…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).
HOLY LOVE believes ONLY the best about his loved ones. God’s TRUST in his people is NOT influenced by their checkered past, or their present weaknesses. “…LOVE … “ALWAYS” … TRUSTS…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).
God’s TRUST in his people does not depend upon whether they are deserving of it or not. It doesn’t matter if they are actually worthy of suspicious or serious scrutiny.
God’s TRUST in his people is not based on their performance, or them earning it, or good/bad deeds. “…LOVE … “ALWAYS” … TRUSTS…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).
God’s TRUST means he ALWAYS, and unwaveringly gives them the benefit of the doubt and is ready to believe the VERY best of them whether they deserve it or not.  “…LOVE … “ALWAYS”… TRUSTS…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).
HOLY LOVE’S TRUST in you is NOT based on you or any performance, or anything you achieve. It is based on his unconditional LOVE and his sufficient GRACE. “…he FIRST loved us” (1 John 4:19 ASV). God’s “…GRACE is sufficient for you” (2 Corinthians 12:9 NASB). “…For if you are trying to make yourselves right with God by keeping the law (or trying to earn his trust), you have been cut off from Christ! You have fallen away from God’s GRACE…” (Galatians 2:21 NLT). “…God is able to make all GRACE abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things…” (2 Corinthians 8:9 KJV). “…My GRACE is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness...” (2 Corinthians 12:9 KJV).
“… God saved us… not because we DESERVED it(2 Timothy 1:9 NLT). … By GRACE (unearned, undeserved, and unworthy favor) [you are] … SAVED through faith (by depending up Jesus Christ’s work upon the cross); and that not of [your]selves: it is the gift of (HOLY LOVE) God lest any man should boast…” (EPHESIANS 2:8-9 KJV). “…he FIRST loved us” (1 John 4:19 ASV). “… since it is through God’s kindness, then it is not by ...[YOUR]… good works. For in that case, God’s grace would not be what it really is—free and undeserved…” (Romans 11:6 NLT). “… He is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood of his Son and forgave our sins…” (Ephesians 1:7 NLT).
HOLY LOVE CANNOT be mocked, duped, considered naive, unperceptive, or gullible. “… Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap…” (Galatians 6:7 KJV). “… we are each responsible for our own conduct …Don’t be misled—you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant. Those who live only to satisfy their own sinful nature will harvest decay and death from that sinful nature. But those who live to please the Spirit will harvest everlasting life from the Spirit…” (Galatians 6:5-8 NLT).
God’s TRUST in you is based on Jesus Christ’s work on the cross on your behalf!  UPON the cross, “…Jesus ….said, “It is finished!” (Luke 19:30 KJV). “…Christ … died for sins ONCE for all, the just for the unjust…” (1 Peter 3:18 NASB). “This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins” (Matthew 26:28 KJV). “…Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them…” (Hebrews 7:25 KJV).  “… Therefore he is able, once and forever, to save those who come to God through him. He lives forever to intercede with God on their behalf…” (Hebrews 7:25 NLT).
God knew “… [His]… righteous servant (Jesus) will make it possible for many to be counted righteous, for he will bear all their sins…” (Isaiah 53:11 NLT).
“…Jesus has become the guarantor of a better covenant (a better relationship with God)…” (Hebrews 7:22 NIV).“…Jesus Christ is in you” (2 Corinthians 13:5 KJV). “…Jesus Christ maketh thee whole (TRUSTWORTHY)…” (Acts 9:34 KJV). NLT). “….Apart from …[Jesus], you can do nothing…” (John 15:5 NIV).…[You]… can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth …[you]…” (Philippians 4:13 KJV). “…For it is God who works in [you]… to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose” (Philippians 2:13 NIV). Thus, “…LOVE … “ALWAYS”… TRUSTS…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).
“…LOVE … “ALWAYS” PROTECTS… TRUSTS… HOPES… [AND]… PERSERVERES…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).
HOLY LOVE commits to HOPE or to hope all things. He “HOPES” in his loved ones. “…LOVE … “ALWAYS” … HOPES…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).
HOLY LOVE hopes, with patient expectation and confidence, in the ultimate sanctification, transformation, and eternal salvation of his people. “… [God’s]…. faith is the …[guarantee]… of things HOPED for, the evidence (assurance) of things not seen…” (Hebrews 11:1 KJV).
HOLY LOVE “HOPES” in the sanctification of his loved ones. “…the will of God, [is]…your SANCTIFICATION (ongoing cleansing from the residuals of sin)…” (1 Thessalonians 4:3 NASB). “…For God has not called us for the purpose of impurity, but in SANCTIFICATION…” (1 Thessalonians 4:7 NASB). “… [God sanctifies his people]…for …[their]… profit, that [they] might be partakers (participants) of his holiness...” (Hebrews 12:10 KJV).  God has chosen you from the beginning for salvation through Sanctification by the Spirit and FAITH in (dependence upon) the truth…” (2 Thessalonians 2:13 NASB). “…ye are WASHED …ye are SANCTIFIED … [and you] … are JUSTIFIED in the name of the Lord Jesus, and BY the SPIRIT of our GOD…” (1 Corinthians 6:9-11 KJV).The Spirit of God dwelleth in you…” (1 Corinthians 3:16 KJV). “…The … HOLY SPIRIT …is the source of …[sanctification] … it is …God who does the work IN and THROUGH all of us who are his. The HOLY SPIRIT DISPLAYS God’s power THROUGH each of us as a means of HELPING the entire church…” (1 Corinthians 12:4-11 NLT). “…LOVE … “ALWAYS” … HOPES…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).
HOLY LOVE “HOPES” in the transformation of his loved ones, “…By His doing you are in Christ Jesus…” (1 Corinthians 1:30 NASB). “…If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature” (2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV). They are “…transformed by the renewing of …[their]… mind….” (Romans 12:2 KJV). “[They are]… conformed (progressively transformed) to the image of his Son…” (ROMANS 8:29 KJV). “…[They] … are changed into the same image [of Christ] from glory to glory …” (2 Corinthians 3:18 KJV).“…For it is God which worketh in …[them]… both to will and to do of his good pleasure…” (Philippians 2:13 KJV).  “…[They are]… in the Father, and the Father..[is in them]the Father that dwelleth in [them], he doeth the works…” (John 14:10 KJV).
God’s people can say: “…I do nothing of myself…” (John 8:28 KJV). “…the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works…” (John 14:10 KJV). “…He helps me, and my heart is filled with JOY…” (Psalms 28:7 NLT). “by the GRACE of God I am what I am” (1 Corinthians 15:10 NIV).

Jesus Christ is in you” (2 Corinthians 13:5 KJV). “…Christ in you …” (Colossians 1:27 KJV).  “…HE (Jesus Christ) WHICH HATH “BEGUN” A GOOD “WORK” IN YOU WILL “PERFORM” IT until the day of Jesus Christ…” (Philippians 1:6 KJV).  “…Eternal LIFE in Christ Jesus our Lord…” (Romans 6:23 NASB).

Jesus Christ is in [THEM]” (2 Corinthians 13:5 KJV). “…Jesus Christ, which is our hope…” (1 Timothy 1:1 KJV). . “…Jesus has become …[OUR] … guarantor of a better covenant…” (Hebrews 7:22 NIV). Thus, “…LOVE … “ALWAYS” … HOPES…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).
HOPE is intimately connected with HOLY LOVE and HOLY LOVE, that HOPES “ALL” things LASTS “FOREVER! “… Three things will last forever—faith, hope, and love—and the greatest of these is love…” (1 Corinthians 13:13 NLT). “…LOVE … “ALWAYS” … HOPES…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).

HOLY LOVE is TOTALLY hopeful and confident that his children will BECOME “ALL” they were meant to become. “…The steps of a good man are ordered (directed) by the Lord:” (Psalms 37:23 KJV). “…The LORD will accomplish (take care of)…that which concerns [you]…” (John 14:31 NASB). “…HOPE DOES NOT DISAPPOINT … (ROMANS 5:5 NASB). “…LOVE … “ALWAYS” … HOPES…”  (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).
