LOVE UNRIVALED: TRANSFORMING LOVE (1JOHN 4:9-12)

AMOR SIN RIVAL: AMOR QUE TRANSFORMA 

God created us to love and to be loved, first and foremost in relationship with Him, and secondly, in human relationships. Sin broke our relationship with God, it caused Adam and Eve to run and hide from God. Sin changed our view of ourselves, they were naked and ashamed. Sin broke our relationship with each other, Adam and Eve used leaves to cover themselves from one another. We all find ourselves in this state, separated from God by sin, feeling unworthy like we don't measure up, and protecting ourselves from one another, to try to keep ourselves from being hurt, but we also keep ourselves from being truly loved. But God's great love transforms everything. God's love transforms us- It saves us. It changes us. It changes our relationship with God and with others, and it enables us to do what we could never do ourselves.
