For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life John 3:16

“Holy and gracious Father, in your infinite love you made us for yourself, and when we had fallen into sin, and become subject to evil and death, you in your mercy sent Jesus Christ, your only Son to live and die as one of us. He stretched out his arms upon the cross, and offered himself in obedience to your will, a perfect sacrifice for the whole world.” Thank you, Lord!
