" Not only is His death the basis for our forgiveness, it's also the foundation for our transformation." ---- Herb Vander Lugt.. He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed. ---- 1 Peter 2:24.. Jesus revealed His love on the cross. Every drop of blood speaks to us of a love that goes to the limit. The light of truth still shines.

Who has gone up to heaven and come down? Who has gathered up the wind in the hallow of His hands? Who has wrapped up the waters in His cloak? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is His name, and the name of His son? Tell me if you know! ----- Proverbs 30:4
We all know what it is now and who He is as He gave his life up for us on the cross. Who has gone up to heaven and come down or extablished all the ends of the earth? Who else could that be but God clearly stating: He has a Son.

God wants all to be saved and live! He wills none to perish from this world that is passing away. Does anyone want the fate of Satan? I would think not! So therefore a warning like in the days of Noah's flood. Long in advance.
" I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and death." ----- Revelation 1:18
He gave His life for us to save us. To follow Him. And avoid Satan's fate!

-The Face of Jesus Christ -By: Henry Morris, Ph.D. "And they shall see His face; and His name shall be in their foreheads" (Revelation 22:4). This is the last reference in the Bible to the face of the Lord Jesus Christ, and a glorious promise it is, with its assurance that all His servants will finally see Him face to face ! Although they give us no specific description of His physical appearance (the only description of His appearance is in Revelation 1:13-16), the gospel writers do frequently mention His face. On the Mount of Transfiguration, Peter, James, and John saw how "His face did shine as the sun" (Matthew 17:2), as He spoke of His forthcoming death. Shortly after this, "He stedfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem" (Luke 9:51) to meet His death. A few days after His entrance into Jerusalem, He was delivered into the hands of wicked men who took delight in desecrating that face which, in loving grief, had just wept over the city and its indifference to God. But first, in the garden just before His arrest, He "fell on His face" in agonizing prayer (Matthew 26:39). Then the Roman soldiers began "to cover His face" (Mark 14:65), and to "spit in His face" (Matthew 26:67), and finally, "they struck Him on the face" (Luke 22:64). In fact, they abused Him so severely that "His visage was so marred more than any man, and His form more than the sons of men" (Isaiah 52:14). But when He comes again, the Christ-rejecting world will cry out to the mountains to "Fall on us, and hide us from the face . . . of the Lamb . . . from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away" (Revelation 6:16; 20:11). All the redeemed, on the other hand, will rejoice forever in "the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ" (II Corinthians 4:6). --  ICR/HMM
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." [John 14:6]
