1 Corinthians 2:8-10

“None of the rulers of this age understood this, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. But, as it is written, ‘What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him’—these things God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God.”

God has done something unimaginable for us. He sent His Son to be crucified. The Lord of glory was brought to shame and was cursed for our sake. But people rejected Him and humiliated Him. Even now there are those who reject him. They will not believe; they cannot believe.

But the Spirit has revealed (to believers) the truth of what Christ accomplished for us, and now we love God because of what we know about Him and because of what we know that He has done. How could you do anything else?
