First Love

from Restore Church Audio | Yorkville, IL · host Jordan Gash

Who is your first love? First love is not merely the love we had at the beginning – it is the love that always belongs in the first place. Jesus is not asking to be one of the many things we love. He is asking to be the One we love first.As believers, this is the least we can do. He is the One who loved us first. He is the One who loved us from the beginning. He is the One who loves us most.“Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us. For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him. For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.”– Romans 5:5–10 NKJVRestore Church | Yorkville, ILSunday Mornings | 10 AMJordan & Melissa Gash, Pastorshttps://www.restorechurchyorkville.com
