Exodus 10:1-29; Psalms 42:1-43:5; Acts 4:32-5:11

When we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. Romans 5:6

Their ship had gone to the bottom and twelve men in an overcrowded, storm-tossed lifeboat laboured to stay afloat. Suddenly, one seaman, in an e?ort to lighten the boat, jumped overboard. The eleven were subsequently saved. The heroic sailor died for all and for each one individually. So, the Lord Jesus Christ died for all of mankind, but in doing so, He died specifically for you. Avail yourself of His vicarious death and you too, will be saved. —Arnot P. McIntee

Behold a spotless Victim dies, my surety on the tree:
The Lamb of God, my sacrifice, He gave Himself for me. —Author Unknown
