“He Loves You Too”
Friday, July 18, 2025Key Verse
“And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them” (Mark 10:16).
Text —Mark 10: 13-16
Message
The love of Christ for mankind is demonstrated through His willingness to act in our best interest, especially in meeting our greatest needs. It was that love that made Him willingly leave His throne in heaven to become a man and pay the penalty for our sin so that we would not have to pay for it for all eternity in the lake of fire, even though we were the least worthy of such love.
In our text today, we see Christ’s immeasurable love for children, whose lifestyle He prescribes as the pathway into the kingdom of God for all and sundry. As a young person, Christ also wants you to “receive the kingdom of God as a little child.” If He loved those most unworthy of His love, and willingly took the punishment of those who rebelled, mocked, betrayed, tortured, hated, and crucified Him to pay the penalty for our sin, then He loves you, too. See yourself as most deserving of His love and don’t let the cares of this life continue to stand in the way of your salvation.
