No Greater Love!
By Mark Flippo
John 15:13 “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.”
How can we ever express our gratitude for Jesus surrendering His life on the cross? He suffered to end our suffering. We never need to look upon Him as a statue that can not hear or see, like in the Old Testament. Every civilization believed in at least one God or more. They did not have the truth for most of them. They sacrificed animals and their own babies to appease a false god.
Jesus did the once and for all sacrifice so that we may have a life free from that false worship.
We give up our lives as a sacrifice to Him. How do we do that? We refrain from doing evil things in the sight of God. He does not make us but we freely surrender our will to Him. When you Love someone enough you will want to please them by not doing anything that would break their heart. He showed us how to not be selfish in our Love but to share it with all mankind! We can Love because He Loved!
