How can I embrace the truth that God is next level love?

We are diving into 1 John 3:1-14 today, and it is our first time on the podcast going through an entire chapter at once! In this chapter, we learn that God the Father bestowed SUCH LOVE on us that He adopted us – you and me. He is not ashamed of us. He knows us inside and out, past, present and future, and He chose to call us children. How beautiful is that truth?!

Hoping in Jesus is a purifying process. Let’s live in the hope of purification. Think about it, we have this hope, this higher call, and if we live expectantly for that, we’ll choose to live differently now than we would if the future seemed hopeless and without any purpose or benefit. So often we connect believing and righteousness or believing and good deeds or believing and morals, which are important. But Jesus fulfilled the law, and what goes hand in hand with believing here is actually LOVE. God abides in you and you in Him as you keep His commands – one of which is love.
