“For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” (Luke 19.10, ESV)¹
_____________________________
¹Why did Jesus come to this earth? There are many reasons. Here are just a few.
- To reveal His Father (John 1.18).
- To be an example for His followers (1 John 2.6).
- To train His disciples for their task (Matt. 28.19-20).
- To preach the gospel of the kingdom (Matt. 4.17).
In our text, we learn that Christ came to seek and to save the lost – us (Rom. 3.23).
Why? Because He loves us! Jesus said, “Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends” (John 15.13, ESV).
