One Died for All

 “For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:”

‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭5:14‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Paul’s revelation of Christ’s agapé love is immeasurable.  The love of Christ constrains us and resonates within us; leaving us with only one conclusion: when Jesus died, every individual simultaneously died.  In God’s logic, one has died for all, thus all have died.  Jesus didn’t die 99% or for 99%.  He one hundred percent died humanity’s death!  Only the agapé love of Christ can make a calculation of such enormous proportion!  The religious mind would question the extremity of God’s love and perhaps prefer to add a condition or two to a statement like that!  Let’s believe that Jesus died for all and those of us who believe have also died and are risen with Christ.  Worthy is the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world!
