Dear Friends,

Because of Calvary,

• I John 4:8-11

  I John 4:8-11   ESV

  ⁸ Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. ⁹ In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him. ¹⁰ In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. ¹¹ Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

I John 4:8-11

“Mr. Spurgeon, a few year before he died, went to visit a friend who had built a new barn on which was a weather-vane and on that weather-vane the text, ‘God is love.’ My Spurgeon said, ‘Do you mean that God’s love is as changeable as the wind?’ ‘No,’ said his friend: ‘I mean to say that God is love whichever way the wind blows.’”
