“But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us”
(Romans 5:8).
On the cross where man slew the Lord Jesus, God by Him brought about redemption. His love rose above the enmity and hatred of His enemies. Such is the virtue and value of Christ’s sacrifice, that it can bring to God the worst sinner without spot or stain. Yet so much more ruinous will it be for those that believe not. It is far better to be a heathen that never heard the gospel than a person who has heard and rejected or neglected God’s great salvation.
Over and over in the New Testament there are numerous references to the love of God…so many times when God has declared His love for man…so many assurances that salvation can be had through the blood of Christ.
“Unto Him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own blood…to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen” (Revelation 1:5-6).
