The Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world

1 John 4:14

It is a sweet thought that Jesus Christ did not come forth without His Father’s permission, authority, consent, and assistance. He was sent by the Father that He might be the Saviour of men.… Didst thou ever consider the depth of love in the heart of Jehovah when God the Father equipped His Son for the great enterprise of mercy? If not, be this thy day’s meditation. The Father sent Him! Contemplate that subject. Think how Jesus works what the Father wills. In the wounds of the dying Saviour, see the love of the great I Am. Let every thought of Jesus be also connected with the eternal, ever-blessed God.

Spurgeon
