Yet God in His infinite love has provided a payment for sin and a way of reconciliation so that sinful man can escape His wrath. We see this wonderful truth in verses like 1 John 4:10: “This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.”
Bali upendo wa Mungu usio na kikomo ulitoa gharama ya dhambi na kutoa nafasi ya upatanisho ili mwanadamu mwenye dhambi aweze kuepuka ghadabu ya Mungu. Tunauona ukweli huu wa ajabu katika mstari kama 1Yohana 4:10: “Hili ndilo pendo, si kwamba sisi tulimpenda Mungu, bali kwamba yeye alitupenda sisi, akamtuma Mwanawe kuwa patanisho kwa dhambi zetu” katika Agano la Kale Mungu ametoa mpangilio wa tabihu wakati kafara zitatolewa kwa ajili ya dhambi.
