That, my friend, is patently untrue.
"For God so (agape) the (cosmos)..." leaves no room for excluding anyone or anything from the love of God. Do not confuse agape with ruach adonai (the Holy Spirit / Breath of God) and its gifts. They are completely different things. The first is the cause of God's creating the world and then sacrificine God's self in the person of Christ for our salvation, and is poured out on all God's Children, even the rebellios ones (Do you think the father with the prodigal son stopped loving him when he left and squandered his life, and then began loving him only upon his return? If you do, I pray you never have children.). The second is a divine blessing for those who choose to die with Christ and be born anew with him, a guide to help us understand our new law, and to equip us specially to achieve our missions here. In Christ, ~CSL P.S. And the word agape existed and was practiced between people long before God told us that he has it for us. ![]() |
