The Proof of Our Hope: God's Love (Romans 5:5-8)

0 Amens

Amen

Our hope is secure as long as God loves us. God will never stop loving us; therefore we are secure in Him for eternity! Paul communicates his desire for us to experience God's love through the work, power and filling of the Holy Spirit. Paul also lays out the objective proof of God's love -- He sent his son to die on the cross, while we were weak, sinners, enemies. The outcome of this is that God will never reject us. If he loved us while we were weak, sinners, enemies, how much more will he love us now that He has clothed us with His righteousness? We need not fear that we will lose God's love for us. And we can cultivate our understanding and experience of this love as we remember and study the cross.
