4It is amazing how much Jesus loves us. He proved it by giving Himself as a blood sacrifice for our sins. 

    It is so wonderful to realize that the God of heaven was willing to leave heaven and was willing to be slapped, spit upon, beaten with a leather whip with pieces of steel that tore His flesh from the bones; then have His beard pulled out by the roots, have a crown of long sharp thorns put on His head; then nailed to a cross, one nail in each hand and one nail through both feet.
