The father loves the Son with an undying eternal love.  The joy and bond between them has no separation or limit . Nothing in all creation compares to the love of God for His Son.

Come Christmas time you will find the world loving the Son, as they will say.  But the love of the world for the Son is of no effect.

Let us prove it with the following scenario.  Let there be a hundred people standing around a manger scene and listening to carols.  Then, while they are singing and happily enjoying the moment, let someone drop 10,000 dollar bills from a high rise apartment directly over them.

What do you think the outcome will be?  If they do not love God more than the things of this world how can they say they love him at all?
