GOD'S LOVE IS NOT "UNCONDITIONAL"

God loves you unconditionally!" I challenge anybody to
prove that from the Bible.

There is not a single verse which explicitly states that God
loves mankind (or even a Christian) without conditions.
Some would point to the verse that says "...while we were
yet sinners God loved us" or John 3:16 which says: "For
God so loved the world, that he gave His only begotten
Son..." in order to demonstrate God's continuous love.
However, .......

Right here goes, i quickly browsed through your link . From what i saw was OT scriptures.

Elijah called fire down from heaven, OT. Jesus rebuked James and John for even thinking it. NT

God dwelt in the temple, OT . In the book of acts Paul said God does not dwell in temples made of stones.NT

Eye for an eye, OT Bless them that curse you and do good to those spitefully use you.NT

Do you get the drift ?

Such writings as those on your link come from the pit and are written by men who have never known the love of God in their own lives.

Can anybody go with "waste of time"? Honestly, if God does not love unconditionally then he is no better than man. (Actually worse, because most people assume he will endlessly hold people in eternal punishment without mercy. No human I know of, and that is also sane, would do that.) End of story.

Hi, Jesus, the beloved Son of God, was the lamb slain from the foundation of the world. He was slain for all, no conditions attached. He is the propitiation for our sins and for the sins of the world. The lamb slain for all sinners shows that God loves us unconditionally. God bless.

Why attack Harold?

Anyone wants to take his challenge up?

Why should God be the ever-forgiving sugardaddy who can be manipulated and taken for granted?

Yes, Jesus Christ is the Passover Lamb slain for our sins... but there is a condition... we must accept him as our personal Savior to be saved! Those who reject God's offer of salvation will not be saved from eternal death. God said the wages of sin is death.
