To Love Like Jesus

Hebrews 1:3:
"The son reflects God's own glory, and everything about Him represents God exactly."

He came to the earth to demonstrate the Father's Love to us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness.

So when we read the phrase "God with us" it can be read "Love with us." Jesus came to bring heaven's atmosphere to earth and to reveal the Father's love. People were drawn to Jesus like a magnet, that was the love of God.

Jesus' every response was based on the love of God. Even when He cleansed the temple, it was God's love: People were being hindered from true worship. Jesus cleared the way for them to make contact with God.

As the body of Christ, His love is imparted to us. So we can express images of the Father's love. It is love from the inside out not from the outside in. It is a love of devotion, faithfulness, commitment, and loyalty. This God kind of love confers value on others. It sees the worth and goodness in others. It is a love that sacrifices with no expectation in return.

We are called to love each other as He loved us. To be imitaters of God. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us.

I John 4:17: "As He is, so are we in this world." What are we in this world? Love. Wht is He? Love. So we are to walk in who we are. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE AND MORE LOVE.

IT'S A DECISION!!!
