The Cost of Salvation

Look at the cost that Jesus paid out of his own pocket to stop the evil that we did to him from propagating. He emptied his pockets of his flesh and blood. The cost was exorbitant. He paid the exorbitant cost not from his unlimited divine resources. He paid the exorbitant cost from his limited human resources. He paid them all for us. He kept not a penny for himself. He has never paid more for anything else . Some say that the Son of God overpaid - that he was ripped off. We were not worth the cost. He, on the other hand, was willing to pay the cost. He thought that we were worth it. Rejoice and be glad! We are worth much to our God! He would not have paid the exorbitant cost of our salvation if we were not worth it .
