God's love is manifested in giving His Son Jesus Christ to die for a lost world: Christ's love is manifested in His humiliation, taking our nature upon Him, suffering and dying in our stead, taking human nature in its first fruits into heaven, and ever appearing in the presence of God for us. It is only by the love of Christ, that we can know the love of God. The love of God to man, induced Him to give Christ for his Redemption: Christ's love to man, induced Him to give His life's blood a ransom for his Salvation. The gift of Christ to man, is the measure of God's love: the death of Christ for man, is the measure of Christ's love. God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son—Christ loved us, and gave Himself for us.
