The Value of a Soul

God was in the process of replicating many sons and daughters into the image of His son, Jesus. (Romans 8:29) 

Now that’s something to ponder.  

The value of a soul being made into God’s image, and what lengths God  went through to do it. 

Knowing beforehand the pros and cons of His decision to make it happen. 

Even though God abhors just one soul spending eternity in hell. 

(2 Peter 3:9) 

He would create mankind. 

Allow them to fall. 

Then, send His Son to save them. 

Finally, He would allow most of mankind to spend eternity in hell just to reproduce Himself inside the few that would allow it. 

It makes us very appreciative of our own salvation. It makes us willing to go to any lengths to offer the message of hope to anyone.
