It may be a hard thing to hear and is also a hard thing to write, as it pertains to the look and will of God and the vision of fallible man as he attempts to view it.
God lives in an eternal relationship of love in the Triune being of Himself. Perfect love desires all to abide in and be an active part of that love.
The mission of God is simple in concept but difficult in operation. It is all summed up in “relationship”.
Identified as the greatest commandment:
Luke 10:27
And he (Jesus) answered, “YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND (Deut 6:5); AND YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.”
...relationship is stated in terms of love. God stamps His eternal intention and access to the divine relationship of love, His definition and example of perfect love (John 15:13), is in Christ Jesus. It is forever stamped and documented in the universal statement of John 3:16
“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life...”
God poured out Himself, in the first place, desiring to share in that love. Out of His divine, triune and communal relationship of love in Father, Son and Spirit, a creation, mankind and all that is tangible, comes into view.
