Description: We are in our fifth and final week of asking, “Why did Jesus Die?”. His entire life had been moving to this point of His death. This was the reason why He came. In our first week asking this question, we saw that Jesus didn’t just die, He was killed. In our second week, we saw that Jesus wasn’t simply killed, He was laying down His life. Then, we saw that Jesus wasn’t just laying down His life, He was fulfilling Scripture. And then last week, we saw that Jesus was not simply fulfilling Scripture, He was taking our place. On that cross, He was bearing the punishment that we deserve. For those who believe, Jesus’ death saves us from God’s judgment, which we all deserve for our sin. This week, we peel back another layer and we are going to see that God is not simply saving us from something, He is saving us to something. Jesus was dying for us to show God’s love for us and to extend His grace to us, all for His glory. That’s where we are going today. And we will primarily get there through four short passages— Romans 3:21-26, Romans 5:6-8, 1 John 4:8b-10, 1 John 5:11-13.
