Interstellar: Love Transcends Time (Romans 8:38-39)

Source: ChurchWiseAI103 wordsAI-crafted by ChurchWiseAI

Cooper in Interstellar falls into a black hole and discovers that love - not gravity - is the force that transcends dimensions. From a tesseract beyond time, he reaches his daughter Murph across years and space, communicating through love. Paul declares that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future... will be able to separate us from the love of God. Nolans film proposes that love is not just emotion but physics - a force as real as gravity, capable of reaching across the impossible. Faith says the same: divine love transcends every barrier we can name.
