Hi there dear Steams!

I have had a very Catholic upbringing, meaning going to church on Sundays and every other  occasions, confessing at least once every few months and all that..

One thing that I have heard now and again during these confessionals and during the preaching  is  that God sent his only son so that our sins will be forgiven and that God's love is unconditional, his kindness has no bounds....

If his love for us is unconditional then why did he give us the

By definition of unconditional itself, there shouldn't be any conditions right??

I know I'm going down a rabbit hole here.... but if you have any answer do comment 


THanks!!
