Sacrificial Love

This past weekend many celebrated Easter. Some celebrated with the Easter Bunny, hunting eggs, eating lots of candy, and fellowship with family and friends. Many attended church services to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

On the subject of Jesus and His resurrection meant that He died. Why did He die?

Jesus Christ chose to die out of His love for a dying world of sinners who had no hope of eternity. But the good news is, He rose from the dead, and because of His sacrifice of love, we as believers have the Holy Spirit living in us. We also have the hope of a peaceful eternity.

His love made all the difference. Now we have been called to love as Jesus loved. Sacrificially. Jesus loved all of humanity. Jesus died for all humanity. All of God’s created beings.

A Pharisee asked Jesus, prior to His crucifixion,
โ€œTeacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?โ€
And He said to him, โ€œโ€‰โ€˜You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.โ€™

This is the great and foremost commandment.
Matthew 22:36-38 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/mat.22.36-38.NASB1995

The second is like it, โ€˜You shall love your neighbor as yourself.โ€™

On these two commandments depend the whole Law and the Prophets.โ€
Matthew 22:39-40 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/mat.22.39-40.NASB1995

๐ŸŒนAs Jesus loved His creation, you and I, we are to love others.
