Mission of Christ SIMPLIFIED

God so loved the world, that he gave his only-begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
John 3:16,17
"A great and infinite sacrifice has been made in our behalf.
We are the objects of God's love, and he has shown to us that he identifies his interests with those of suffering humanity.
As Christ has given himself for us, we should place a proper estimate upon the soul. 
 
Q: Can our finite minds grasp this great and wonderful fact?
A: Not unless we
1- empty ourselves of vanity and
2- break away from the bondage of Satan.

*The mission of Christ to the world was
--to break the chain of Satan from the soul.--
*It cost an infinite price to deliver the captives of Satan from the captivity of sin."
Signs of the Times 1894 E.G.W.
