He emptied himself, taking the form of a slave, coming in human likeness, and found human in appearance, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to death, even death on a cross. (Philippians 2:7-8)
Jesus - most pure victim, capable of offering a sacrifice of infinite value - offered to God a complete and superabundant expiation for sin, and at the same time, gave him the most perfect glorification.
God dies to glory God! Jesus, knowing infinite goodness better than anyone, immolated himself on the cross with unfathomable love!
Love is surrender; it is giving. By dying on the cross for us, Jesus showed to what lengths God would go in his love for man. By dying for the glory of the Father, he expressed the depth of the love of man for God. The cross is the supreme symbol of this love.
-- Servant of God Luis Maria Martinez
