"God so loved the world he gave his only Son that whoever believes in him may not be lost but may have eternal life."
The quote has everything that can be told about our religion. This great love story forms the essence of our religion. Christianity is primarily a loving relationship that merges God's initiative and the inner aspiration of the human spirit in Christ. The fruit of this relationship is happy and meaningful life. The interesting aspect of this meeting is that the Other meets us in our existential situation - Jesus Christ. God walking as a friend, laughing, crying, dying and continuing to inspire us through his Spirit is something unique of our religion. Proud to be a Christian, proud to belong to a tradition of great love!
Wow, this is strong :)
