It is TRUE! God does love you. Yes, you! Do you know just how much God loves you? How much does God love any of us? It is such a tremendous amount it is difficult for human minds to comprehend!
Sadly, there are more people in the world who doubt God’s love than who are aware of it. In modern terms, we can say God has gotten a lot of really bad publicity. It is high time the true God is known for Who and What He is!
And, knowing the true God can easily start with learning how much He loves you. We are loved by the great eternal God Who created everything and everyone!
This great awesome God has an incredible plan of salvation for every person who has ever lived! And, of course it includes you and your family and everyone you know and love.
God wants you to be a part of His eternal family. That is why you exist! All of God’s creation has surged into being from His infinite flow of love. God’s love is why you were created, along with the other billions of people God has granted this temporary human life, with His hope and expectations of making billions of eternal sons!
God tells us in the book of Genesis, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth” (Genesis 1:1). This verse provides some very basic information. We are told it was God, not evolution or anything else, Who created the heavens and the earth. It was God Who created the animals, and it was God Who created the first man and woman, Adam and Eve.
Genesis 1:25-27 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
This is truly a wonderful story about where we all began. We are all of the same original parents, Adam and Eve, thereby making every one of us children of Adam and Eve. This makes all of us brothers and sisters. It is important to understand we were made in the image and likeness of the creator God! Anyone who really wants to come to know Who and What God is, must allow the mind to grasp that we really look like God. We are in His image. This is quite an exciting concept!
God clearly asserts He is the Creator! It is sad and very foolish for anyone of us to believe there is no true God. In the Book of Psalms we read, “The fool hath said in his heart, there is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good” (Psalm 14:1).
God’s Word shows us many things about Who and What He is. For example, there is only One God. There is nothing else like God. He is completely and utterly Unique in every sense of the word.
Isaiah 45:5-6, 18 I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me. That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else…. For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.
So, Who is God? God is the Creator, unique in all aspects and infinite in love. He is our Father, and He is the One offering us the opportunity to live with Him forever. And, He is so much more. Do you want to learn of Him?
