The Love of Christ

NoOne

Gone but not forgotten.
The Love of Christ constrains us, it motivates within
Those who once were lost, but now thru Christ do live
Because he first loved us, is where our love begins
When we were lost sinners, and no hope within

When we had no strength, Christ died for our sins
God loved the ungodly, those who trust in Him
Justified by His Blood, Saved from wrath by Him
Reconciled Back to God, because Christ ever lives

The Holy Ghost within us, God's love shed abroad
Makes us not ashamed, to share this love with all
That Christ died for sinners, ungodly as we are
And all who trust in him, God hath surely called

The call goes out to all, believe what God has said
Christ Jesus died for all, His death was for all men
Trust in what He's done, God who cannot lie
Christ at God's right hand, He lives for you and I

2 Corinthians 5: 14,15 "For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again"

1 John 4:19 "We love him, because he first loved us"

Romans 5: 5-11 "And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement"

Romans 4:5 "But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness"

Ephesians 1: 12-14 "That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ. In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory"

1 Corinthians 1:9 "God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord"

2 Thess 2:14 "Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ"

Romans 8:33,34 "Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth. Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us"
