Rom. 5:8 “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”
The first thing that should be noted about the love of God is that, God’s love acts. It is not just some lovey-dovey, wishy-washy empty talk or promise. It acts! And not only that but it acts unconditionally. It was when we had nothing to offer, while we were still sinners, that Christ died for us. It was God’s love for the entire world that caused Him to give up His only Son as a sacrifice for our sin. It is there; forever recorded in history as a demonstration and visible testimony to how much He loves us.
“Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends (John 15:13).” And it continues to act as God leads, protects and provides on our behalf.
