the triune God of love

God is not alone in the universe
God revealed Himself with love, in communion with Jesus the son and the Holy Spirit

Matt 3
God exist in an eternal circle of love
Father through the Spirit send His love to the Son Jesus and Jesus is so filled with love that He love the Father through the Spirit

In this circle, God wants to invite us into this circle of love
   A love that it unconditional, unselfish, a love that fulfils and satisfies
   In the love circle, we are filled till overflowing
Salvation is not just escaping hell.. but to enjoy God

Romans 5
Love is a gift from God tt comes from the Holy Spirit

Romans 8 37


3 things to grow deeper in love
1. Zero anger
Number 14
God is not easily irritated, provoked
Jesus is very kind, and gentle

Matt 11
It's not easy, but we can do it through the Holy Spirit
If we are angry, we are bit by bit killing ourselves
If we are angry, we grieve the Holy Spirit

2. Constant forgiving

1 John 4
If there unforgiveness, we don't know God
Only if we forgive that God lives in us
We can't claim to love God but unforgive people
Letting go is just a choice to make

Luke 6

3. Unlimited patience
Jesus have unlimited patience

1 Tim

Proverbs
A patient man or woman is very powerful
With patient, is even better than a warrior
