Scripture: Various Title: The love of God for born-again believers Worship Leader: John Sletta Speaker: Rich Goswiller For [God] makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. (Matthew 5:45b) God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us. (Romans 5:5b) I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you. (Jeremiah 31:3b) That you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is in the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. (Ephesians 3:17b-19) For you are a people holy to the Lord your God. The Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for his treasured possession, out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth. It was not because you were more in number than any other people that the Lord set his love on you and chose you, for you were the fewest of all peoples, but it is because the Lord loves you and is keeping the oath that he swore to your fathers, that the Lord has brought you our with a mighty hand and redeemed you for the house of slavery. (Deuteronomy 7:6-8) I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you loved me. (John 17:23) The Lord you God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.
