Paul loved the corinthians so much , he opened his heart wide to them , he spoke to them freely without any charge , he withhold no affection from them. But the Corinthian closed their hearts to Paul , turned their faces away from him , withhold their affection from Paul , even despised and attacked him.
Paul desired to have a relationship with them in the love of God, so they could all enjoy the favor of the Lord. He appealed to them,” I loved you so much , now I want you love me back. I want you to open your hearts widely to me same as I opened my heart wisely to you ; I want you to have deep affection to me same as I have deep affection to you. “
The true love is a reciprocal relationship, the true love appeals for reciprocal affection.
... God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16 NIV)
God wants to have a relationship with you! He loves you so much that he gave his one and only son Christ Jesus to you , he wants to give you eternal life through his son, he wants you to be his own children.
True love is reciprocal. Would you accept God’s love , receive his son Jesus Christ , receive the gift of eternal life , and become the children of The most high?
God blesses you!
We have spoken freely to you, Corinthians, and opened wide our hearts to you. We are not withholding our affection from you, but you are withholding yours from us. As a fair exchange—I speak as to my children—open wide your hearts also. 2 Corinthians 6:11-13 NIV
