Exhibit (1)

And from Jesus Christ,

...the first begotten of the dead...
Unto Him that loved us,
and washed us from our sins 

in His own blood.
But He was wounded 

for our transgressions,
He was bruised for our iniquities:
the chastisement of our peace 

was upon Him;
and with His stripes we are healed.

For ye are bought with a price:

Revelation 1:5/Isaiah 53:5/1 Corinthians 6:20

Exhibit (2)

"His own nation rejected Him;
His own religion crucified Him;
and thus He presented Himself,
the willing victim of our sins,
to be rent in soul,
man­gled in flesh,
broken in heart,

that He might show us the Father,

and lead us back to our Father's house."

George D. Herron

What is the price of two sparrows—one copper coin?
But not a single sparrow can fall to the ground  without your Father knowing it.

But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
...ye are of more value than many sparrows.....the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy....for God is love.
Matthew 10:29/Luke 12:7/James 5:11/1 John 4:8

Exhibit (4)

Christ walked into the outer court to the Altar of Sacrifice (that was for the Forgiveness of sins) and said Father Forgive Them.

He then proceeded to the Brazen Laver (representing Baptism) and said Today thou shalt be with Me in paradise, as He was about go through the Baptism of Death.

He then entered the inner court and went to the Table of Bread (that contained the cups for the drink offering) and said I thirst.

He then crossed over to the 7 Branch Candlestick and said Woman,

Behold Thy Son.

He then went to the Altar of Incense (representing the Prayers of God's people) and communed with the Father -- My God, My God, Why hast Thou Forsaken Me?

He then entered the Most Holy Place and approached the Ark of the Covenant (where the Law of God was placed -- the Law that requires complete submission) and uttered a Prayer of total submission Father into Thy Hands I commit My spirit.

Finally, He climbed up on the Judgment Seat and gave a decree while wearing a Crown of Thorns -- It Is Finished.

Then He bowed His head and gave up the ghost.

Gospel Simplified:
--For God so loved the world,

--He gave his only begotten Son,
--that whosoever believeth in Him
--should not perish,
--but have everlasting life.
John 3:16
Gospel Summarized:
--Christ Lived the Life we should Live
--Christ Died the Death we should Die
--Hence, weaving a perfect Robe of Righteousness for us

For I am persuaded,

that neither death, nor life,

nor angels, nor principalities,

nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

Nor height, nor depth,

nor any other creature,

shall be able to separate us from the love of God,

which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 8:38,39

Picture the Letter of 3rd John as God's Text Message to YOU:

Beloved,

I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper
(personal wellbeing)
and be in health,
(physical wellbeing)
even as thy soul prospereth.
(spiritual wellbeing)

--I have no greater joy--

than to hear that my children walk in truth.

But I trust I shall shortly see thee,

and we shall speak face to face.

3 John 1:2,4,14

Exhibit (7)

For 

--He chose us in Christ 

--before the foundation of the world 

--that we may be holy and unblemished in His sight in love.
Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: Who verily 

--was foreordained before the foundation of the world, 

--but was manifest in these last times for you.
Ephesians 1:4NET/1 Peter 1:18-20
"The love of the Father toward a fallen race is
--unfathomable,
--indescribable,
--without a parallel.

How great the love of God is God made the world to enlarge heaven.

He desired a larger family.

*And before man was created, God and Christ entered into a covenant that if he fell from his allegiance, Christ would bear the penalty of transgression. Man fell."

Where Were They?
Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, 

being bound in affliction and iron;
Why?
Because they rebelled against the words of God, 

and contemned the counsel of the Most High:
Then............
...they fell down, and there was none to help.
Then What?
Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, 

and He saved them out of their distresses. 

He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, 

and brake their bands in sunder.

The Result:
Oh that men would praise the LORD for His goodness, 

and for His wonderful works to the children of men!
Psalm 107:10-15
Praise GOD for HE is Wonderful

Exhibit (9)

When I was a child,

I spake as a child,

I understood as a child,

I thought as a child:

but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

--Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels,
and have not LOVE,
I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
--And though I have the gift of prophecy,
and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge;
and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, 

and have not LOVE, I am nothing.
--And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor,
and though I give my body to be burned,
and have not LOVE, it profiteth me nothing.

LOVE suffereth long, and is kind;

LOVE envieth not;
LOVE vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
LOVE never faileth:
--but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail;
--whether there be tongues, they shall cease;
--whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
And now abideth faith, hope, LOVE,
these three;

but the greatest of these is LOVE.

1 Corinthians 13:11,1- 5,8,13

Exhibit 10

"The choice to glorify God is the choice that self shall be emptied

and lost, and God alone shall be seen, through Jesus Christ. 

*It is that the whole universe and everything in it shall reflect God. 
Q: Did Jesus come to this world and then go back as He was before, and thus His sacrifice be for only 33 years? 

A: The answer is that it was for all eternity. Never again will He be in all respects as He was before.
Q: Wherein did He link Himself with us?

A: In our flesh; in our nature. 

That is the sacrifice that wins the hearts of men. 

--That is the LOVE OF GOD--

Whether the man believes it or not, there is a subduing power in it, and the heart must stand in silence in the presence of that awful truth."
