Supernatural Love

  Perhaps you have no thought of God from day to day, and are not sure that you really believe in Him.  You have determined that, if there is a God, and if He is as the Bible describes, a relationship with Him would only cramp your style.  You have determined to take your chances on the “eternal life” hype, and for now, you will keep calling the shots, after all, it is your life.

  But God wants you to know that in spite of your feelings, He believes in you!  He gave you life and sustains you through the perils of this age.  He has unmistakably declared His love for you by providing access to Himself through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus, who paid the penalty for your sin, with His own blood.  He is grieved by your continual rejection because He knows that your sin will result in eternal separation from Him, and loss of all of the joys He intended for you before the dawn of creation.

  You were created by God, and you are His creature; you need Him, like you need the air that you breathe.  To reject Him, is to forfeit your only hope.  To bite His hand, is to bite the hand that feeds you.  To deny Him, is to deprive yourself of life in His presence forever, “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. (Psalm 14:1)” and “…the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23)”

  Perhaps you are not moved by His supernatural love.  Perhaps you are determined to be the captain of your own fate in spite of His claims.  Perhaps you are ready to take your place among “…the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, (who) shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. (Revelation 21:8)”

 Hell will be filled with those who spurn the mercy, grace and supernatural love of God.  Every one of them will be there by choice.  They will have chosen to fend for themselves in that godless realm of the eternally damned.  I pray that you will change your mind.
