God’s Purpose For Sending Christ To The World.

To reconcile us to God
     Man broke God’s fellowship with Him through disobedience which brought enmity between God and man. Satan took the dominion of this earth from man and started ruling and controlling things on this earth (as the prince of this world John 12:31, 14:30, 16:11) including human beings. He started manipulating human beings to do his evil deeds which are in enmity of God, so that from generations to generations men remained enemies of God; everyone was doing evil!
     And the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And the LORD repented that He had made man on the earth, and He was angry to His heart. The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence. And God looked upon the earth. And, behold, it was corrupted! For all flesh had corrupted its way upon the earth. Gen 6:5-6, 11-12
     God would not wipe men entirely and create another one because by then Satan had got the dominion of the earth and the earth was rightfully his, so God had to preserve Noah and his family so that through their generations he would send his Son to the world and save mankind so that man wouldn’t have to go into the lake of fire where He will cast the fallen angels some time to come. Therefore, God sent Christ to come and redeem you and I, break the enmity between God and us, reconcile us to God that we may continue our oldest friendship or fellowship with God through the Holy Spirit as it was from the very beginning. (To resolve age-old enmities)
     And through Him having made peace through the blood of His cross, it pleased the Father to reconcile all things to Himself through Him, whether the things on earth or the things in Heaven. And you, who were once alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now He has reconciled in the body of His flesh through death, to present you holy and without blame, and without charge in His sight. Col 1:20-22
     God had come into the world and saved it through the person of Jesus through his cross, provision and forgiveness of sin has been made; God therefore expect you to choose Christ and be saved!
