To quote Spock; "the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few"
God loves EVERYONE just as much as he loves his own son, and not willing that any of them should perish, allowed his son to be sacrificed, and through that sacrifice they too can become sons and daughters of God, does this mean God loves his children less than you do?
Here's the thing, though, Huggy. He didn't have to do any sacrifices.
God has to honor his word otherwise he is a liar.
God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? -
Numbers 23:19
If God cannot keep his word, then he's not God.
The Bible states that the wages of sin is death, therefore only death can atone for sin. This required one without sin to give his life in order for others to live.
A concept you utilize on a daily basis.
