This week Bro. Leo continues us in a study of God’s saving and sustainable grace by looking at what happened the day of Jesus’ crucifixion.

Last week we learned that the God’s gift of our salvation cost God His Son and cost Jesus His life. This week Bro. Leo spends most of our time going into a deeper study of the cost of the gift of our salvation before looking into what was happening during the sacrifice of Jesus.

Isa.53 and 52:14 teaches us what Jesus went through the day of His crucifixion. Keeping in mind Jesus’ commitment to us, how can we possibly not ask ourselves “What shall I render unto the LORD for all his benefits toward me?” (Psa.116:12).

Scriptures used in today’s study:
