P. 12
God did That
Jesus is part of the Godhead and
dwells in heaven with the One we refer to
as God the Father (Genesis 1:26, John
1:1-4,14). God never meant for people to
die. Yet, He had to punish sin to be just;
He is holy and cannot allow sin to dwell
in Heaven. God gave mankind more than
enough time to realize that he couldn’t fix
himself. In time, He sent the answer to
remove our weaknesses.
“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
Jesus came as a sinless lamb for the
slaughter. He was put to death as a
common criminal, even though He was
sinless and innocent of any crime. He
allowed this to happen, so He could
redeem mankind from their state of sin.
