Yes to God

Here's your answer to God: Yes!

Make it emphatic. Make it certain.

No other answer.

Only yes.

Maybe?...nope.

Later?...no way.

Yes

Revelation 22:21 (MSG)
21 The grace of the Master Jesus be with all of you. Oh, Yes!

Why would anyone not choose perfect love?

And I am learning that saying yes doesn't have to mean Officership - we all have a role to play and a part to play in keeping/gaining people for Jesus.

I honestly don't comprehend how a deity who damns people who don't kowtow to him is the embodiment of perfect love. Sounds pretty malevolent to me.

I can see why you ask the question.

What do you suppose God gets out of the relationship when He first shows His love for us?

I can only guess what you mean by kowtow. That isn't a part of the relationship.

When you are truly loved by someone, what is your response? When the response is love, we are better for it. The same is true with God.

When our response is confusion, God understands and doesn't take back His love. He won't give up on you, but it is your choice.

Why not consider the possibilities of His love for yourself?
