The Love of God

In the inquisition they found in a prison where a man had carved a cross in the stone walls of his cell. Near the left hand of the cross he had written “width.” And on the right hand of the cross he had written “length.”  And down around the foot of the cross he had written “depth.” And there at the top of that cross around that bloody thorn-crowned head he had written “height.

What amazing dimensions of God’s love. There is no one God does not love.

“Someone may go to hell unsaved but they will not go to hell unloved.” (Adrian Rogers)

Eph 3:17–19 “ . . . that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height—19 to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.”
