The Son of God Loved Me and Gave Himself For Me
THIRTY-NINE YEARS AGO
The first Friday in June, 1974 at 9:00 p.m.
And there they preached the Gospel. (Acts 14:7)
_That which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us. And truly, our fellowship is with with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ.
_This is the message that we have heard of Him, and declare to you, that God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not the truth. But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.
_If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
"Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved."
_I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.
I Love Him.
I love Him because He first Loved me,
And purchased my salvation on Calvary.
Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed upon us
that we should be called the sons of God:
therefore the world knows us not, because it knew him not.
Beloved, now are we the sons of God,
and it does not yet appear what we shall be:
but we know that when he shall appear, we shall be like him;
for we shall see him as he is. I John 3:1,2
Above are some significant scriptures, and a praise chorus, that are meaningful to me, that relate to that time, 39 years ago.
