Thank God for His Gracious Owning of Christ in His Undertaking

For God’s gracious owning of him in his undertaking, and in the carrying of it out.

I bless you that you were reconciling the world to yourself in Christ, not counting men’s sins against them, and that you have committed to your people the message of reconciliation. 2 Corinthians 5:19(NIV)

That you have yourself made him a witness to the peoples, a leader and commander of the peoples; Isaiah 55:4(NIV) that he was set apart and sealed, John 6:27(NIV) and sent into the world; John 10:36(NIV) and that the Father who sent him did not leave him alone, for he always did those things that pleased him. John 8:29(NIV)

Glory be to God in the highest, for in and through Jesus Christ there is on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests. Luke 2:14(NIV)

This is how God showed his love among men: He sent his one and only Son into the world that they might live through him. 1 John 4:9(NIV)

I thank you for the authority you have granted him over all people, that he might give eternal life to all those you have given him. John 17:2(NIV)
