This is such a great love that our human brains cannot comprehend.
It is a greater love than anyone could ever dream of.
No wonder that the apostle John writes; “God is love” (1 John 4:16) and how true it is.
75.
Let’s now look into more detail what God did to take our sins on Himself, and take the penalty that we so rightly deserved.
God's wonderful rescue plan, so we could be saved and not have to spend eternity in hell.
76.
It all started at the very beginning.
As soon as our great, great, great grandparents had sinned, God promised to send a Saviour when saying to the serpent;
“And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her Seed.
He shall crush your head, and you shall sting His heel.” (Genesis 3:15)
77.
Normally when talking about children, the Bible talks about the seed of the man, but here it is the seed of the woman,
and that is for a reason, as a virgin around 4000 years later would give birth to Jesus, our Saviour, with no man involved.

We know that when Eve gave birth to her first son, she must have thought that this was the Saviour as she said; “I have gotten a man of the Lord.” (Genesis 4:1)
Little did she know that it still was many thousand years more to go, before the Messiah, our Saviour would be born in Bethlehem.
79.
We see that His heel would be stung and we do know that it happened on the cross when Jesus died for our sins,
and we know that Jesus indeed at the same time crushed the head of the serpent.
80.
Shortly after Adam and Eve had sinned, the first animal had to die as a result of their sins,
when “the Lord God made Adam and his wife garments of skins and put them on them.” (Genesis 3:21)
Since then millions of humans and also millions of animals have died, which would never have happened, had it not been for sin.

Every book in the Old Testament points to our wonderful Saviour, but I will only mention a few examples.
82.
We know that God made a covenant with Abraham and that later Isaac was born. (Genesis 15 and Genesis 22)
Later “God did test Abraham and said unto him; Abraham. And he answered; Here am I.
And He said; Take your only son Isaac whom you love and get yourself unto the land of Moriah and sacrifice him there for a sacrifice upon one of the mountains which I will show you.” (Genesis 22:1-2)
Why did God ask Abraham to do this?
83.
We know that God did not want Abraham to actually offer Isaac, seeing what happened;
“And Abraham stretched forth his hand and took the knife to have killed his son. Then the Angel of the Lord called unto him from heaven saying; Abraham, Abraham. And he answered; Here am I.
And He said; Lay not your hand upon the child, neither do anything at all unto him, for now I know that you fear God, in that you have not kept your only son from Me.
And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked about, and behold there was a ram caught by the horns in a thicket.
And he went and took the ram and offered him up for a sacrifice in the stead of his son.” (Genesis 22:10-13)
84.
So what was the reason for this test?
We know that God planned to send His own Son Jesus to die for us.
To me it seems that for God to have the legal right to send His Son Jesus to die for us, He needed that the person with which He had a covenant, and whose great, great, great granddaughter Mary would give birth to Jesus – that he was willing to give his only son Isaac to die.

Abraham did his part and God instead provided a ram.
We know that Abraham “offered” his only son Isaac at a mountain in Moriah land which today is Jerusalem.
Around 2000 years later God would let His only Son Jesus die for us at a mountain in Jerusalem called Calvary.
The same place as where Abraham had “offered” his only son.
Please keep also in mind as we go along that it was a ram (a male sheep) that was offered in place of Isaac.
86.
Later, when the Israelites had been slaves in Egypt and God was delivering them, we know that God instituted the Passover.
Here a lamb was sacrificed for every family, and the blood of that lamb served to save them. (Exodus 12:1-28)
Many years later during the Passover – Jesus – the Lamb of God, would give His life to save us, and His blood has opened the door to salvation for everyone that wants.
87.
Moving even closer to the birth of Jesus – around 800 years before it – God is again pointing out that our Saviour will be born by a virgin with no man involved when saying;
“Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign.
Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a Son, and shall call His name Emmanuel.” (Isaiah 7:14)
