God never wanted death for mankind. It breaks His heart to see our misery, pain, and death. We chose to sin and rebel against Him and brought this awful thing into our lives. But, as Pastor Bill will remind us in today’s message, the story doesn’t end there. God couldn’t leave His beloved Creation in that place of hopelessness and suffering. He had a plan to save us and that plan was Jesus Christ. He sent His own Son to become sin for us, freeing us from its consequences and giving us eternal life.
