Many of the blessings that God promised are conditional. There are things that you have to do and condition that you have to meet to qualify for these blessings. God promises a mansion in heaven if you meet certain conditions. He also promises a bed in hell if you meet other conditions. Success is guaranteed. Once you meet the conditions, it is yours. You cannot fail. Failure is also guaranteed when you meet other conditions. Other blessings from God are unconditional.
God’s love is Unconditional. God loves you unconditionally regardless of who you are or what you do.
Rom 8:38-39 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Hell is full of people that God loves. Jesus loved the people of Jerusalem and he cried over them knowing that they would be destroyed.
Matt 23:37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
God sent Jerusalem a prophet; they killed him. He sent other prophets and they killed them. God sent his son. They killed his son yet God never stopped loving them.
Oh, love of God, how rich and pure!
How measureless and strong!
It shall forevermore endure—
The saints’ and angels’ song.
The greatest truth that I have found is “God Loves Me.”
Confession: Ye thou I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil because my Father God Loves me.
May God Richest and best be yours,
Lanier Martin
