God’s going to make good. And that’s the thing that He’s saying. Not that the children of Israel are attractive, but He is saying that He’s come down now to redeem them, because He has heard their cry, and that appealed to Him. There’s nothing lovely that appealed in those people, and there’s nothing lovely in us that causes Him to save us. God has agreed to save any that will trust Jesus. Because it was on that condition that He came to this earth to die. “God so loved….” And it’s that love provided a redemption, and God doesn’t save by love; He saves by grace. Now grace is love in action.
