2 Kings 1:1-18; Jeremiah 34:1-22; Hebrews 5:11-6:20
In Him we have redemption…forgiveness…the riches of His grace which He made to abound toward us. Eph. 1:7-8 NKJV
When a bride and groom stand together to exchange vows they say to one another, “All that I am I give to you, and all that I have I share with you.” On the cross, our Bridegroom took all that we have to give Him—our sin, our death, our shame, our sorrows, our sicknesses—and their consequences, and destroyed them forever. And what did our Bridegroom give to His Bride? He shares His very life, all He has and is, He gives to us. —Marilyn MacMullen
Things future, nor things that are now,
Not all things below or above,
Can make Him His purpose forgo,
Or sever my soul from His love. —A. Toplady
