Spelling out the Love of God

"He loves and cares for a lost world of human intelligences. "God so loved the world 
[a race of rebel sinners], that he gave his only begotten Son [the object of his affections], that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3: 16."


 
*For scarcely for a righteous man will one die...But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Rom. 5:7,8.
 
*Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends; but Jesus died for his enemies, to rescue them from eternal destruction.
 
*Not for a part merely; he tasted death for every man. Heb. 2:9."
SDA Pioneer Stephen Pierce (1804-1883)
