God’s Relationship with Humanity from One Side

This lecture explains that God is always the initiator in His relationship with humanity. He begins with love, calling, and salvation, while the human response is often weak or absent, turning the relationship into love from one side.

Second: God Is the Initiator of Love

God loved humanity before creating them. He established the relationship on love, not outward appearances or formalities. He initiated the relationship with Adam, Noah, Abraham, the prophets, the apostles, and with every person personally, even after sin and falling.

Third: The Tragedy of Lack of Response

Despite God’s love and constant seeking, many people do not return His love. They reject His call and prefer sin, the world, or the self. God stretches out His hand, but hearts often remain closed.

Fourth: Biblical Examples of One-Sided Love

The teaching presents many examples such as King Saul, Samson and Delilah, David and Absalom, and the people of Israel, where divine or parental love was met with betrayal or rebellion.

Fifth: God Does Not Force Anyone

God loves everyone but does not force anyone to love Him. He desires the heart, not appearances, and seeks a true relationship based on free response.

Sixth: God’s Love and His Gifts

Many people love God’s gifts more than God Himself. They misuse blessings such as money, intellect, or authority against God’s purpose instead of using them for His glory.

Seventh: The Call to Mutual Love

A healthy spiritual life is built on mutual love: prayer with love, repentance with love, service with love, and faith working through love.

Eighth: The Spiritual Conclusion

The core message is a call for humanity to respond to God’s love, so that the relationship is not one-sided, but a true communion of love between God and humanity.
