"While We Were Still Sinners, CHRIST Died For Us!"

How much you have been loved
(Horatius Bonar, "The Revelation of Jesus Christ")

"But GOD demonstrates HIS own love 
for us in this: While we were still sinners, 
CHRIST died for us!"  Romans 5:8

The CROSS is the pledge 
and standard of divine love! 

The FATHER'S love is here--
for GOD so loved the world that 
HE gave HIS one and only SON! 

CHRIST'S love is here--
the love that passes knowledge, 
the love which many waters could 
not quench, nor the floods drown; 
love to the uttermost; love 
grudging no toil, nor pain, nor 
weariness, nor reproach--
for us! 

Believer! If you want to know 
how much you have been loved, 
look to the cross of JESUS! 

That meets and answers all our doubts!
