Before God created mankind, He knew we would rebel, and that He would need to come to die and atone for us. Jesus – king of kings, lacking nothing, through whom all things were made – came to solve the problem of the condition of humanity: all are stained and sentenced to eternal separation from God. He entered into our suffering world, both fully man and fully God, and allowed Himself to be beaten, mocked, scourged, and crucified so that He could have a people who would love Him for eternity, to lavish and pour out His riches on us forever. Pastor Scott urges us not to settle for anything less than a heart ablaze with love for Christ, because of what He has done for us.
