12.19.21 Hillside Bible Sermon - The Love of God

12/21/2021

 
"For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." (Mark 10:45) This statement from Jesus tells us why he was born. This is the reason that the Eternal Son of God took on flesh and came into this world as a human was to give his life as a ransom for many. By our sins, we owed a debt to God which we could never repay. Jesus became a human in order to live a human life, die a human death, and bear the punishment we humans justly deserved. As God, his life holds an infinite value and his righteousness is without measure. As both God and man, Jesus was able to pay the price for our sins so that we could be declared righteous and given a right relationship with God. Why would God do such a thing? John 3:16 declares that God acted due to his great love for us. God's love free and generous. As we celebrate Christmas, we remember the greatest demonstration of God's love - the sending of his son to die for sinners - and we grow in our love for him in return. ​
