Early in the book of Genesis we see sin enter into the world. The earth was no longer flawless, no longer sinless. As time continues on, evil is all around. God loved His earth, His creation. He loved His people. So, He gave His people commandments to live by. Yet, many wouldn't follow this commands. But God had another plan.
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son,
that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
John 3:16
God sent His Son, His one and only Son to this world to die for us. Jesus' purpose of coming to this earth was to die for us. For you. He died so that we can live. He came to give us life.
...I have come that they may have life,
and have it to the full.
John 10:10
and have it to the full.
John 10:10
As we near Easter, let's praise Jesus for what He did for us.
