Upon pristine humanitys insurrection against its omnibenevolent Creator, such a majestic Creator was obligated by his own holy nature to decreate, by means of forewarned death, all that was now sinfully unholy (Genesis 3). Such a majestic and holy Creator is also amazingly gracious. He loved his creation in this way: he himself took the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men in order that he might absorb his own righteous judgement against all that is unholy and provide a way of salvation from the curse of death for all who would simply believe that he has done so (John 3.16; Philippians 2.6-8; 2 Corinthians 5.21). Indeed, God comes to bring joy to his world and make his BLESSING flow far as the CURSE is found (Luke 2.14). His name is Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins (Matthew 1.21). O come let us adore him!
