There are many Christians who easily understand the love of Jesus but struggle with the love of our Heavenly Father. Many see Jesus as the selfless member of the God-head who gave up His life for us, whereas they see the Father as a strict disciplinarian just waiting to catch us slipping so that He can punish us, but is this true? Is our Heavenly Father always seeking to punish us? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he searches through Scripture to answer these questions and more in his video, Understanding The Father’s Love.
Understanding The Father’s Love
The Love of Our Heavenly Father
16 For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.
John 3:16
38 For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will but the will of Him who sent me. 39 And this is the will of Him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that He has given me, but raise it up on the last day. 40 For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who looks on the Son and believes in Him should have eternal life, and I will raise Him up on the last day.
John 6:38-40
53 Do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father, and he will at once send me more than twelve legions of angels? 54 But how then should the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must be so?
Matthew 26:53-54
