”BETH. Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word. With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments. Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee. Blessed art thou, O LORD: teach me thy statutes.” | Psalm 119: 9-12

Nothing changes God’s affection.

Whom He loves and how He loves, He loves to the end.

His love is like Himself… the same yesterday, today and forever.

If you love Him as He is revealed in the face of Jesus Christ, it’s because He first loved you in Christ before the world began.

We love Him because He first loved us.

”Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,” (2 Timothy 1: 9)

God saves sinners on purpose, not by accident or by man’s free will.

Only when a man is laid low does God show Himself in the unclouded glory of what He is.

He will not give glory to another.

“But to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit and trembleth at my word.”

He can reveal Himself and allow man to worship in view of that revelation.

But until the sinner is made to take his proper place, there is no unfolding of that divine character.
