As the inspired apostle John beheld the height, the depth, the breadth of the Father's love toward the perishing race, he was filled with adoration and reverence; and, failing to find suitable language in which to express the greatness and tenderness of this love, he called upon the world to behold it. "Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God" 1 John 3:1.
Kama mtume Yohana aliyevuviwa alivyotazama kimo, kina, na upana wa upendo wa Baba kwa jamii inayoangamia, alijazwa na sifa na uchaji; na, akishindwa kupata lugha ya kueleza ukuu na huruma za upendo huu, aliita ulimwengu kuutazama [upendo huu]. “Tazameni, ni pendo la namna gani alilotupa Baba, kwamba tuitwe wana wa Mungu” 1 Yohana 3:1.
