Christ is the Fulfillment of God’s Love
“But God proves his love for us in that while we still were sinners Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8 NRSV
Looking back over the last few weeks, we have learned that all love comes from God, that His love is a covenant and not a contract, and that His love is steadfast enduring forever.
But our love for God and each other is all too often flawed and broken. We are sinners in need of a Savior. But in our weakness, "God proves his love for us in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us (Romans 5:8)." Christ's life, death, and resurrection are the fulfillment of God's love for His creation. We do not have to clean ourselves up before coming to God! His invitation is to come as you are!
