Extravagant Love
“Where there is no extravagance there is no love, and where there is no love there is no understanding.”
~Oscar Wilde

~John 12:3
In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
~1 John 4:9-10
The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!
~John 1:29
But He was wounded for our transgressions,
He was bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes we are healed.
All we like sheep have gone astray;
We have turned, every one, to his own way;
And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.
~Isaiah 53:5-6
