2 Corinthians 12:1-6 (Click here to view the passage.)
Thoughts that transcend all speech. Can we comprehend or exaggerate the love of God? Frederick M. Lehman, the writer of “The Love of God” brings a tiny picture to our human and limited minds of the depth of God’s love. How can we know of this God unless we have experienced Him? How can we describe this God with such finite and limited words? Humans use superlatives wrongly, but the Bible always uses them correctly. Another passage that Ben addresses is Ephesians 3:14-21
14 For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, 16 that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, 17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height— 19 to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. 20 Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, 21 to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
