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.
We have been studying this verse in church for the past 5 weeks. I thought it was appropriate to post in on here today being that it is Good Friday. Until this study I hadn't fully grasped the sacrifice that was made for all of us. My pastor said something while describing Jesus' brutal beating and Crucifixion that will stay with me always. He said Jesus didn't just die FOR us but he died BECAUSE of us. Wow. I never thought of it that way and I have to say that it makes me feel much more grateful when it is put to me like that.
Here is the sermon if you are interested

Well said Jacy! It really puts things into perspective and not take it so much for granted.
Don't you think that this world has detoured our thinking into not seeing things like this for what they are? That when a good Pastor comes across with the right method of thinking to get us to see it how it is we are just in awe at how it really was! Thanks for sharing that Jacy.
