2020 for JESUS - Day 59: JESUS is LOVE... JESUS is ENDURANCE & PERSEVERANCE...

From Day 46 to Day 60 of 2020,  

please join us in taking 

The LOVE Challenge - GOD's WAY!

The Bible shares the definition of GOD's AGAPE LOVE in 1 Corinthians 13.

Throughout the Bible, the illustration of this AGAPE LOVE is JESUS.

So, each day from February 15-29, 

let's plan to take a principle of AGAPE LOVE

and then look at something from JESUS' life, 
here on earth, that illustrates it.   

GOD's LOVE 
endures and perseveres 
in all things!

JESUS 
endures and perseveres 
in all things!

Yesterday, we saw that LOVE HOPES all things!  JESUS is OUR HOPE!  Romans 5 connects to that in verses 1-5:

1- "Therefore, since we have been justified through FAITH, we have PEACE with GOD through our LORD JESUS CHRIST,

2- through WHOM we have gained access by FAITH into this GRACE in which we now stand.  And we boast in the HOPE OF THE GLORY OF GOD.

3-  Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces PERSEVERANCE;

4-  PERSEVERANCE, CHARACTER; and CHARACTER, HOPE.

5-  And HOPE does not put us to shame, because GOD's LOVE has been poured out into our hearts by the HOLY SPIRIT, WHO has been given to us."

Later, in Romans 15 we are told, in verses 4-6...

4-  "For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through the ENDURANCE taught in the Scriptures and the ENCOURAGEMENT they provide we might have HOPE.

5-  May the GOD WHO gives ENDURANCE and ENCOURAGEMENT give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that CHRIST JESUS had, 

6-  so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the GOD and FATHER of our LORD JESUS CHRIST."
