Gal. 4:-1. The Incentive of the Cross Lore tu Jllltllfilf. .10 dirirte, De111.1r1d,i 111-1 mul, my life. my JH. ln the eyes of the world, human life is cheap. The materialist values man at ninety-eight cents. But we, who know that the soul of man is immortal, cannot estimate the worth of man in dollars and cents, The Wtrrd says that one soul is worth more than the whole world. God placed such .tn infinite value on our souls, that He permitted His only begotten Son to die in our stead. Because of this, we cannot afford to withhold ourselves from Him. Could we but visualize in part the matchless love of the Triune God in providing for our redemption, l am sure that we would never withhold anything from Him. God's love for man constrained Christ to inrrefldw His will voluntarily to the Fathers will, Christ said, l came . . . not to do mine own will, but the will of Him that sent me. It was love that caused Christ to offer Himself as .1 .ozrrifife for our sin. Greater love hath no man than this that a man lay down his life for his friends. Love and sacrifice are inseparable. One cannot love another without sacrificing. It was on the cross that Christ committed the greatest possible .fert'ive for man. True love leads to voluntary service. No one commanded Christ to come to earth and live as other men. He was not compelled to forgive sins, or forced to heal sick bodies. He was not ordered to bind up and comfort broken hearts, nor to raise the dead. He could have been delivered from the cross had He so desired. But He chose rather to suffer affliction. to he despised and hated of men-even to die. He went as far as He possibly could for man. The love of voluntary submission .is exhibited in Christ's life should heget in us a similar love. Do we love God sufficiently to deny ourselves for His sake? Self-denial is at true badge of discipleship to Christ. Christ sacrificed His all, even His very life, for us, so that He might present us sinless to the Father. Such love surely constrains us to give Him our lives as a continual living sacrihce. Oh! that we might ever serve Him loyally and faithfully until we hear those blessed words, Well done, thou good and faithful servant, thou has been faithful over a few things . . , enter thou into the joy of thy Lord,
