Loved PDF E-mail
In our study of John 11 we return to the home of Lazarus, Mary and Martha.  We did not study them in John but you may remember their story from Luke 10.  Martha, the bugged busy body and Mary, the peaceful student.  Lazarus was their little brother and in John 11 he is sick unto death.  The sisters send a messenger to Jesus with this beautiful statement..."The one You love is sick."  Whatever else they didn't know about Jesus they knew this...He loved them.  But, the word they used was the one for "brotherly love".  Here's the great thing; read John 11:5, the word used there is agape ("God-love").  Get it?  Jesus loved them more than they knew!!!!!!! When you think about what God thinks of you, I pray you consider yourself one that is loved by Jehovah!  Anybody know any verses to support that Wink???

For I am sure that neither death/life/ angels/rulers/things present/things to come/powers/height/depth/anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus.

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.

He really, really does love me
