Jesus gives Salvation

My brother-in-law is a firefighter. My closest friend is one too. They, and their fellow servants risk their lives for anyone in need, regardless of their status or standing. They work for the temporal welfare of the masses. They willingly set aside their rank and comfort to be a blessing to others. They may never know the names of those they save. The rescued may never know their champions.

Jesus worked for the eternal welfare of His chosen ones, whosoever will believe. He laid aside His privileges as God and stooped to earth to save them. He knows the name of each one He rescues. He reveals His identity to the subjects of His unwavering love. All who receive His unmerited gift of salvation come to know His name and willingly serve Him all their days. Jesus gives and the redeemed receive His wonderful salvation.
