Jesus Christ Gave Up Everything

Why did Jesus, Creator of heaven and earth, give up everything to take on the form of a man and suffer so much here on earth?



"For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:6-8)


The reason for Jesus' ministry can be summarized in one scripture verse. "He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil." (1 John 3:8)
