Christ's coming was not to create guilt, but to demonstrate, and better yet, be a vehicle of God's love to us. The cross is a dramatic expression of His love and a clear invitation for people to come to Him and be saved. This love of God in Christ is the only basis for anyone's relationship and friendship with God. This seems to be the theme of that Curious Book called the Bible.
Let's check it out.
"For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him." John 3:16,17 (New Living Translation)
Here are a few of the many truths of how we can experience a growing relationship with God:
"And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts."
Colossians 3:15a (NLT)
"Let the message about Christ, in all its richness, fill your lives."
Colossains 5:16a (NLT)

I had such an awful time trying to get signed up for your blog that my first blog was really watered down and not very profound!
On this Jesus Christ blog, the meaning came through loud and clear if God does not want to create guilt, but to have a better vehicle of God's love to us, so we in turn should not create guilt to others. So we can show God's Love through us!
