When God created us, He loved us but mankind turned away from Him and disobeyed Him. Our wrongdoing put a barrier of sin between God and man. Then in great love God moved His only Son, Jesus, to become like us in our humanity and humbly lay aside all His glory as God.
Jesus followed His Father God's plan obeying the call to offer Himself as our Saviour and dying on the cross for us so that God could justly forgive our sins and heal our sicknesses (when we repent). What amazing love. "How can it be that Thou my Lord should die for me?"
