John 3:16: "For God so loved the world that He gave . . . Galatians 2:20: “. . . I live by faith in the Son of God , who loved me and gave Himself for me.

What do see of what Jesus did for you? Nailing him again or loving him now? Building a relationship with him now or rejecting him the more? Sharing with him or talking at him...
