We must always remember that our
heavenly Father is a good God. Let's
look at Psalm 145:7-9 in the Amplified
Bible, Classic Edition:
7 THEY SHALL POUR FORTH [LIKE A
FOUNTAIN] THE FAME OF YOUR
GREAT AND ABUNDANT GOODNESS
AND SHALL SING ALOUD OF YOUR
RIGHTNESS AND JUSTICE.
8 THE LORD IS GRACIOUS AND FULL
OF COMPASSION, SLOW TO ANGER
AND ABOUNDING IN MERCY AND
LOVING-KINDNESS.
9 THE LORD IS GOOD TO ALL, AND HIS
TENDER MERCIES ARE OVER ALL HIS
WORKS [THE ENTIRETY OF THINGS
CREATED].
inquire of the Second Covenant in 1
John 4:7 (AMPC): "Beloved, let us love
one another, for Love is (springs) from
God; and he who loves [his
fellowmen] is begotten (born) of God
and is coming [progressively] to know
and understand God [to perceive and
recognize and get a better and clearer
knowledge of Him]."
Love springs from GOD, who is so
good. Now let's read Romans 5:5: "And
hope maketh not ashamed; because
the Love of God is shed abroad in our
hearts by the Holy Ghost which is
given unto us."
Then go to 1 John 4:8 which says, "
GOD
IS LOVE." He doesn't have Love. He is
Love! Nowhere in the Bible does it say
that GOD is power. No, He is Love, and
He uses His power to save, heal and
deliver those of us who come to Him
in faith. I can prove it by what Jesus
said to Nicodemus in John 3:14-16
(AMPC):
Now verse 11: "They shall speak of the
glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy
power."
And now verse 16: "Thou openest thine
hand, and satisfiest the desire of every
living thing."
He is good to all! Those scriptures are
from the First Covenant. Now let's
14 AND JUST AS MOSES LIFTED UP
THE SERPENT IN THE DESERT [ON A
POLE], SO MUST [SO IT IS NECESSARY
THAT] THE SON OF MAN BE LIFTED
UP [ON THE CROSS],
15 IN ORDER THAT EVERYONE WHO
BELIEVES IN HIM [WHO CLEAVES TO
HIM, TRUSTS HIM,AND RELIES ON
