God So Loved You He Gave You Jesus
He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up
for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?
Romans 8:32
God is a good God. He is a God of love. But we will never
know how much God loves us until we know how much He loves Jesus, because He
gave us Jesus, His beloved Son.
Do you remember the story of Abraham in Genesis 22?
Abraham’s heart must have been broken when he led his one and only promised
son, Isaac, up Mount Moriah to be sacrificed. But in the end, Isaac did not
have to die because God provided a substitute—a ram.
The ram caught in the thicket was really a picture of
Jesus, who would one day be arrested, and led up Mount Calvary to be crucified
in our place for our sins.
My friend, God so loved His Son, but He so loved you too,
that He was willing to give up His Son for you. That’s how much He loves you!
And if God was willing to give you heaven’s best—Jesus—do you think that He
will withhold anything good from you?
