You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

‭‭Romans‬ ‭5‬:‭6‬-‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

I would give my own life in exchange for the lives of my kids and grandkids. Let’s hope I never have to prove it, but their feelings for me at the time would be no factor.

I’ve no desire to be a martyr or so pretentious to prove my love but fact is, when you create a living being you bond to it inextricably. So much so that you long to save it from harm from within or without at all costs.

Here we see a perfect Father sending a sinless Son as His incarnation with an end game of dying to Himself as payment made for us to live forgiven.

You know the story. It was a painful but brilliant plan to demonstrate the depth of His love in a way we can all humanly comprehend.

And to seal the deal, all that’s required in turn is for us to evaluate the evidence and believe in His plan.

A complex example made for simple minds like us.
