<TITLE>03. Par 12-19</TITLE>L-12 There never was a life ever lived like His, because He was the God manifested in the flesh when He was born. He was the expression of what God the Father is. And God the Father being love, then Jesus was the full expression of love. He was love from the very first time that His little baby hands stroked the pretty cheeks of His mother. He was love.
And I think today that that's where many is failing to recognize that He was love. "God is love, and they that love are borned of God."
"God so loved the world, that is, the unlovables, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish, but would have Everlasting Life."

L-15 He expressed His love when He was here on earth in so many different ways, till it is undisputable that He was the most loving creature that ever lived. And I think in His life here He was expressing God. And the only way that God can be expressed to the people is through love.
And well did He do this when He caught one of the most vilest women that there was of His day, perhaps. They found her just guilty, and no way out, when she was found in adultery. And they drug her up before Him and said, "What do You say do for her?"
And when He turned to her and said, "I don't condemn thee. Go and sin no more." Instead of being throwing her out to the streets, to be drug out like a bunch of wolves over her to stone her and take her life, His tender, kind, loving heart stooped way down into the sin that she was in, said, "I don't condemn thee. Just go and don't sin no more."

L-18 And when He was on His way down to the grave of Lazarus, I think there's another great time that He expressed what God is to the human being. Not only is He a God that can forgive the lowest sin that could be committed, and take the guilty and make them guiltless by His pardoning love, but after death has laid us in silence, He's still concerned about us. I think He well expressed that on the road down with Martha and Mary, when He come to the house where death had shut out the life of a lovely person. And on His road down to the grave, yet, being God, knowed that He would raise Him from the dead, knowed that it had been told Him that in His very Word laid the power to raise him from the grave; yet, when He seen Martha and Mary and those who loved Lazarus, crying, the Bible said He wept. What was it? His great loving heart. When He seen that, knowing that His--His friends were in trouble, He was troubled with them.

L-19 I'm so glad to know that He can be found amongst the brokenhearted. And in our sorrows He's not one that would leave us. He stands by us when all has failed, and the last hopes of earthly reaching has come to its end, He is still God and He loves us. He was the expressing of God.
And, oh, how I believe that He longs for His people to be so anointed with His Spirit, that we could go to each other in trials and in troubles, and give the expression of His sympathy, as it pours from our hearts that's been borned of His Spirit, to reflect in the church the love of the living God. That well expressed what He said, or the poet said. Living, He loved me.
