Almighty God has taken the initiative in doing something for man the sinner.
‘God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son . . .’; ‘Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent us Son to be the propitiation for our sins’; ‘But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us. . .’ [John 3.16; 1 John 10; Eph 2.41. ]
It is obviously not a kind of religious self-help where you patch yourself up with the aid of God.
God in mercy breaks in upon the human situation and does something which we could never do for ourselves.
THIS IS THE DIVINE REMEDY FOR HUMAN PLIGHT.
We need a complete demolition and a complete new creation.
