We know Jesus loves us through His consistent display of love and kindness, as well as His sacrifice on our behalf.
The assurance of Christ's love is grounded in scripture and the evidence of His actions throughout our lives. The sermon by Mary Winslow emphasizes that His love is 'everlasting' and characterized by 'loving kindness.' This deep and sovereign love draws us to Him, regardless of our unworthiness. Understanding that Jesus has taken on our burdens and sorrows manifests His profound dedication to our salvation, reinforcing our confidence in His eternal affection.
