 By Leading Us with Love Jesus Makes Us Captives of His Love ㅡ

 “Among whom are you also the called of Jesus Christ:” (Romans 1:6)

Christ’s invitation to us all is a call to a life of peace and rest—a life of liberty and love, and to a rich inheritance in the future immortal life.

Consider the Captain of our salvation. He suffered shame for us that we might not suffer everlasting shame and contempt.

 He suffered on the cross, that mercy might be granted to fallen man.

 God’s justice is preserved, and guilty man is pardoned. Jesus dies that the sinner might live.

 Shame is borne by the Son of the Highest for the sake of poor sinners, that they might be ransomed and crowned with eternal glory.

 While we look constantly to Him whom our sins have pierced and our sorrows have burdened, we shall acquire strength to be like Him.

 We shall bind ourselves in willing, happy, captivity to Jesus Christ.

 (That I May Know Him 287)
