1 Peter 1:8 Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, 9 for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
10 Concerning this salvation, the prophets, who spoke of the grace that was to come to you, searched intently and with the greatest care, 11 trying to find out the time and circumstances to which the Spirit of Christ in them was pointing when he predicted the sufferings of the Messiah and the glories that would follow. 12 It was revealed to them that they were not serving themselves but you, when they spoke of the things that have now been told you by those who have preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven. Even angels long to look into these things.
Luke 24:25 25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken: 26 Did not the Messiah have to suffer these things and then enter his glory?”
14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
Calvary Love
.. And that’s why Jesus hates sin in His people and Calvary is the measure of His hatred. We can only receive true love through the new birth. That Agape love, that is the love that we now must be governed and walk and driven by. That is the love, not human love which is based on emotion and feelings and so on.. Faith is not about feelings it’s about believing what God says in His Word.. God first loved us that He gave.. To receive from God you have to experience God’s love and that’s why faith works by love – not human love, it is divine love.. Look to Christ the epitomy of The Father’s love. The only way we get free of human sentimental love is by the Cross that we take up daily to follow Christ. That will deal with it..
Wells Of Salvation
.. That is why The Cross is Christ’s doorway into His life. I can only live.. be.. walk in that new life of Christ that lives in me, It’ll never be done otherwise. It can only be achieved with the new life that we have received that is in Jesus. It’s the same for the healing of your body.. for all your needs.. for everything in this life. When you start to see that then you know what you draw from. You start to draw from those wells of living water that come out of our being. He is the Living Water, He is The Life, it’s not about me. My knowledge my learning my understanding comes from Him not my efforts. This is why The Cross of Christ is the doorway into His life.. .. ..

8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
