The love of Christ

God is love, this is the common and justified answer we often times hear people give when they are faced with concerning questions that exposed or challenged a sinful lifestyle they are living without a good understanding of what God's love is.

The truth is they are  right because "God is truly love", but the thing about God's love that must people misunderstand or never understood is that, his love is the source of a lifetime provision that has been made for them that leads to eternity as they go through their every day life on this earth. God is being understood as a God whose love, kindness and mercy allow sin to prevail and promote spiritual death.

If only they could just accept and receive God's love which is "Christ" for who he is, than for what they perceive him to be, their response would be different.
