My Hero. (2 ) ( Isaiah 53 )

Last time we declared Christ was God ,in every way ,now there is only one God, and it is hard to grasp the being of  God ,he is so awesome, He created all things, sustains all things, upholds all things, he cannot be compared to anyone else, in Isaiah 40  v 25 we read,' To whom will you compare Me?' Or who is my equal?' says the Holy one'. Alec Motyer wrote the following on these words,' It is not only His power, wisdom, dignity, sovereignty, authority, that put Him beyond compare . Of far more significance is His unattainable, unassailable moral perfection, he is the Holy one'. Yet the unimaginable happen  that divine being the Son of God became a man, entered into into this world. Each  step was a step down, from where he was, and who he was, and what he became.  He always knew ,who he was, and why he came, and knew what it would  cost him. He knew that Herod would try and kill him, that those he called his own would hate him, and that their battle cry would be ,'Crucify him'. Yet in spite of this  he marched boldly to a death on a cross. That horrible yet glorious death would enable people to have their sins forgiven, to became children of God and receive eternal life, to all who put their faith in him. My wonderful Saviour and my hero.
