Hi def,
I didn't realize that you were asking a question. Yes, the love that God showed us through Jesus Christ is a love beyond all love, written in blood. He gave His all for us.

Pastor Roger ILL be back go to go..10-4..Jesus is The message right.....  "The Message, not the Messenger"
Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God … made Himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. Philippians 2:5-7
“You’re an angel!” we might say to someone who has been especially kind. But the original meaning of angel is ‘messenger.’ Thus when God sent the message for which the human race had waited so long, He sent an angel: “Today … a Saviour has been born” (Luke 2:11).
As important as the angel was, he was still only the messenger. The message itself was lying in a manger—none other than the incarnate Son of God, come in human flesh to reconcile us to God and restore us to God’s family. God Himself is the ultimate missionary. He crossed the borders that separate earth from heaven, the Creator from the creature. He left eternity and entered time and space so that we might be rescued from sin and receive the gift of eternal life.
The church is rightly concerned about sharing the Good News of salvation with the whole world. But no matter how faithful—or successful—the church is in that task, it remains only the messenger. The church does not exist for its own sake or to attract people to itself. It is God’s instrument, His messenger, to deliver the message from the heart of God to a broken and sinful world.

"Going God Shopping"
May 5, 2007
The Lord is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth. He fulfills the desire of those who fear him; he also hears their cry and saves them. The LORD preserves all who love him, but all the wicked he will destroy. Psalm 145:18-20
Speaking on radio has taught me there are some very real advantages and disadvantages to having an unseen audience. For example, when I was preaching in the parish, I could see when the sermon was putting people to sleep, or when the words were hitting home (that’s when the wives would give their husbands an elbow in the ribs). Being on the radio, it’s impossible to know when a hundred thousand folks have pushed the button or turned the dial to another station. You can understand if I say that it’s frightening.
Almost as frightening as a report put out by the Southern Baptist Convention that says that many Protestants, displeased with their pastors and parishes, are going "God shopping". An article that appeared in last week’s USA TODAY says most of these folks joined a new church because their old congregation failed to engage their faith, use their talents, or seemed hypocritical or judgmental. A large percentage of people moved because they had found a fellowship that offered more appealing doctrines and preaching, or the membership seemed more “authentic.” How sad.
Now, if you are among the many who are going “God shopping”, please allow me to share a few thoughts.
If you feel your talents aren’t being used, then tell the pastor. If you’re still not being used, tell him again.
If your church seems hypocritical or judgmental, then you’ll have to go to heaven to find a congregation that isn’t. Christ’s churches are designed to call sinners to repentance and offer forgiveness through Jesus Christ to those who are sorrowful.
If your church isn’t authentic, then perhaps they need your vision to help them be re-authenticated.
If you’re going God shopping to find a place with more appealing doctrines, then hear the Psalmist, “The Lord is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth. He fulfills the desire of those who fear him; he also hears their cry and saves them.” God’s truth is of paramount importance!
The bottom line is this. We don’t need a God who is created in our own image. We don’t need a church that tells us what we want to hear. We need a congregation that clearly calls us from our sins, shares the Savior’s story of salvation, and assures the troubled of God’s forgiveness. That’s a church worth joining and supporting. That’s a place where the pastor and people need us to encourage them.
That’s a church where God can find us.
