To know that God knows everything about me and yet loves me is indeed my ultimate consolation.
R. C. SproulThe whole basis for our relationship with God is rooted and grounded in grace, in that which is not earned.
R. C. SproulThe idea of being the Substitute in offering an atonement to satisfy the demands of Godโs law for others was something Christ understood as His mission from the moment He entered this world and took upon Himself a human nature. He came from heaven as the gift of the Father for the express purpose of working out redemption as our Substitute, doing for us what we could not possibly do for ourselves.
