"But God-so rich is He in His mercy!"
"Because of and in order to satisfy the great and wonderful and intense love
which He loved us, Even when we were dead by our own shortcomings and
trespasses, He made us alive together in fellowship and union with Christ;
He gave us the very life of Christ Himself, the same new life with which
He quickened Him, for it is by grace, His favor and mercy, which you
did not deserve, that you are saved, delivered from judgment and
made partakers of Christ's salvation. And He raised us up together
with Him and made us sit down together, giving us joint seating
with Him in the heavenly sphere by virtue of our being
in Christ Jesus the Messiah, the Anointed One."
"He did this that He might clearly demonstrate through the ages
to come the immeasurable, limitless, surpassing riches of His grace,
His unmerited favor, in His kindness and goodness of heart
toward us in Christ Jesus."
(Ephesians 2:4-7)
