That is a great question Jen. One I too have wonder of, I mean if the
entire world were to go off the deep end, everyone in the dad-gum world
unsaved but me, would he have still hung there for me. It seems easier
somehow to be willing to die for 1000 people's lives rather than say 10,
and 10,000 easier than for the 1000, and 100,000 easier than 10,000 and so
on. But 1? Me? or You? Tough to imagine isn't it. In fact he did die for
the world, even those who will never choose him. Now isn't that even
harder to imagine, dying for only one person's availability to be saved,
and they chose not to accept it and yet Christ died, yet his sacrifice is
not lessened, because once you give a gift, the sacrifice of giving is done
whether they chose to accept or avail themselves of it or not.
