God's love is eternal and unconditional. Several Bible verses affirm that God loves humanity with an everlasting love that is compassionate, gracious, and slow to anger. God demonstrated his love most clearly through sending Jesus Christ to die for humanity while we were still sinners. When the Gospel is preached in partnership with the Holy Spirit, as seen in Acts, thousands can be saved and lives transformed through healings and conversions as the Spirit guides and empowers the Church. We should seek the Spirit's guidance with obedient hearts as such a partnership is essential for the Church.

9. 1 JOHN 4:8 HE WHO DOES NOT LOVE
DOES NOT KNOW GOD, FOR GOD IS LOVE.

10. • Jeremiah 31:3 “I have loved you with an
everlasting love; I have drawn you with
unfailing kindness.
• Psalm 103:8 “The Lord is compassionate and
gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love.”
• Rom 5:8 But God proves His own love for us
in that while we were still sinners Christ died
for us!

11. “God’s love never ceases, Never. Though we spurn Him, ignore
Him, despise Him, disobey Him, He will never change. Our evil
cannot diminish His love. Our goodness cannot increase His
love. Our faith does not earn it anymore than our stupidity
jeopardizes it. God doesn’t love us less if we fail or more if we
succeed. God’s love never ceases! God loves you the way you
are, but He refuses to leave you that way.” ~ Max Lucado
