God Gave Himself
God Gave Himself It is difficult to fathom that God set up everything for us to come out on top. Consider how God gave Himself as a sacrifice to save us from Himself as our judge.Is it something he had to do? Certainly not! The word of God continually lays out how He has made provision for us to have a relationship with Him. The love of God is displayed for us in an extraordinary way. I don't believe we truly have an understanding of how horribly gruesome the cross really was. The Bible tells us He went through excruciating pain for us. A dictionary definition reads "to excruciate is to cause great agony". I cannot imagine in my wildest thinking what Jesus went through, but to consider that He did it for us is astounding. Hebrews 12:2 NLT We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honor beside God’s throne
