“The Gospel reveals a real k truth that if we don't see Jesus' death as our only hope for salvation, we are among the lost. But thank God, the Son of Man came to seek and save the lost, and He went to the cross to do so. The depth of His sacrifice is beyond our comprehension, but it's what makes our salvation possible. He had to die to save us from the darkness of sin and death. May we grasp the necessity of His death and find eternal life in Him.”
