Essentially this promise before curse, this superiority of God's love in Christ, must come from the Bible.

Essentially this promise before curse, this superiority of God's love in Christ, must come from the Bible.

In Christ the original image of God is restored, by faith in this world and by sight in the world to come.

When we feel used and abused, the Bible says we are loved. When we feel abandoned, the Bible says we are never alone. When we feel rejected, the Bible says we are redeemed. When we feel lost, the Bible is a lamp for our feet and a light on our path. When we feel worthless, the Bible says that we are God’s handiwork created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which He prepared in advance for us to do.

But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was upon him,
and by his wounds we are healed.

Time was God's first creation.
