Passion of the Christian (pt.2)

In my last post I told you about the hate aspect of passion and let me tell you it was a Debby downer but i have good news now we get to talk about love. I mean love is only the entire focus of this challenge as well as like the biggest focus of the Bible I would even be so bold as to say the Central focus of Christianity, and why not love is by far the most powerful of the emotions God has given us if not then how can you explain all the many songs about love in one form or another even if its only physical love. love is so powerful that it can make you do crazy unbelievable things and if you don't believe me here is an example you will know but may not think of in this way the movie "Taken" about a man rescuing his daughter from a human trafficking operation in Europe is actually a love story about a father's overwhelmingly powerful love for his daughter. Do you really get that i mean really, really get that? because he was willing to sacrifice everything for his child and so was God because if not how could he have done what he did as it says in what is arguably the most famous verse of the Bible John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,[a] that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." did you get that it didnt say for God so felt sorry for The world or for God so hated satan but "For God so LOVED the world" its because of love that God has done all that he has done and is still doing today.In my first passion blog i told you the definition for passion well let me offer you another one "the sufferings of a martyr." what an appropriate definition to such a powerful word seeing how God's passion for us led to the passion of his son Jesus.
