Christ has made an infinite sacrifice. He gave His own life for us. He took upon His divine soul the result of the transgression of God′s law. Laying aside His royal crown, He condescended to step down, step by step, to the level of fallen humanity. He hung upon Calvary′s cross, dying in our behalf, that we might have eternal life.... Does it seem a small thing that He should endure all this, that we might be called the sons of God? Does it seem a small thing to you to become members of the royal family, children of the heavenly King, partakers of an immortal inheritance? (OHC 17.3) MC VC
