DOES GOD LIKE YOU?


1 CHR. 28:4                                                                              Pastor Rick Jackson

 

Of course we know, according to the Bible, God loves you. God loved us poor sinners so much [Jn. 3:16]. And Romans 5 reminds us that if God loved us enough to die for us as sinners how much more will He do for us who are now His children. But the question is not one of “love”, the question here is one of “like”. We are to love lost sinners even as God does but do we have to like them? Nay nay, I say thee nay.
